Lyrics Van Morrison

Van Morrison

Going Down to Monte Carlo

Goin' down to Monte Carlo about 25k from nice

Goin' down to Monte Carlo about 25k from nice

Got to get myself together, gotta get my head some peace

Sartre said that hell is other people, I believe that most of them are

Sartre said hell is other people, I believe that most of them are

Well their pettiness amazes me, even after I've gone this far

Goin' down to Monte Carlo, 25k from nice

Goin' down to Monte Carlo about 25k from nice

Gotta get my head together, gotta get my head some peace

Playing in the background some kind of phony pseudo jazz

Playing in the background in the restaurant, some kind of phony pseudo jazz

I don't care I'm trying to get away from people, that are trying to drive me mad

After everything I've worked for, not goin' to throw everything away

After everything I worked so hard for, I'm not goin' to give it all away

I just need to take a raincheck, I can't live to fight another day

Goin' down to Monte Carlo, 25k from nice

Goin' down, goin' down to Monte Carlo, still about 25k from nice

Got to get my head showered, got to find some release
