They say that bearing crosses

Is a religion in itself

But honey the strain I'm under

It's ruining my health

When we first met as lovers

We walked together hand in hand

But now that bridge of love has shattered

I'm such a lonely man

I'm not gonna be your monkey

I'm not gonna be your fool

I'm not gonna stand round waiting

While you're out there trying to be cool

At the bitter end

At the bitter end

Well you listed all my virtues honey

And you charged a real high price

Well given this set of circumstances

I don't think that's nice

I'm not gonna be your monkey

I'm not gonna be your clown

I'm not gonna stand round watching

As they lower you down

In the ground

At the bitter end

At the bitter end

I'm like a knight in shining armour

Honey do I detect some rust

I'm moving one step higher honey tell me

Honey tell me honey you must

Well I gave you all my confidence

And you gave me back just lies

I recognise amongst our best friends

Most of them are spies

With all this poison in the system

Love was murdered from the first

And though I practiced eastern logic

I just cannot break the curse

Well I'm not gonna be your monkey

I'm not gonna dance any jig

I'm not gonna stand round waiting

As you're taking your lunch with the pigs

Taking your lunch with the pigs

At the bitter end

At the bitter end
