New Monty in Town

from The Devil's Dance Hall (EP) by Casual Fantastic

/

lyrics

There’s a new Monty
A new Monty in town
And there’s gonna be
Some changes ’round here
Yes, here comes Monty
’Round the corner
He don't know where's going
But he’s already giving orders
His name is Monty
And he’ll beat the fix
His name is Monty
But he’s no Montgomery Cliff
But he don’t care
What he is and who he isn’t
His name is Monty
And this Monty means business

There's a new Monty in town
There’s a new, new Monty in town

He drives around
In his mom’s old Cadillac
But s he’s in a nursing home now
So she can’t ask for it back
You say well Monty
It's all in your mind
He says, brother
It's all in the mind
His name is Monty
He wants it all
You may be satisfied but
He’s tired of living small
Yeah, here comes Monty
T o save the day
And he don’t give a damn
If he’s five hours too late

He’ll tell ya what, he’ll tell ya now
He’ll tell ya wherefore, and he’ll tell you how
There's a new Monty in town
There’s a new, new Monty in town

Yes, his name is Monty
There is no why
Only why not him
Why some other damn guy?
Yes this time it's Monty
Who is the one
Who is the now
Yes, there's a new Monty on town
He's got the whole world in his hands
Got the whole world in his hands
May be too crazy to have the world in his hands
But as Monty says Crazy is his plan
