lyrics

The big monster blues
I mind ma ain business keep ma sel tae ma sel
I’m the best behaved monster and ye’d never tell
That I was there because I never cause a fuss
Despite the fact that I am bigger than a bus
Sometimes I get caught on the odd camera
Getting’ yer pictures taen is affa braw
But then they go and say things like “I think it’s a fake”
An’ putt it doon tae some bloke that’s on the make

But I don’t mind because they leave me alone
And I’m quite happy swimmin’ here on my own`
But sometimes I wish I was a celebrity
Meeting famous people every day
The paparazzi would keep me on the front page
But the scientists would a’ want tae keep me in a cage
So I’ll just hide ma sel’ awa here doon in the loch
Far frae the nosey people and the waves and the froth
