Smashing Lyrics
Monkey whore showed the pregnant girl the door
For something that she saw
Underneath the bed
She said it's the devil that saw
In the mirror that she swore at
Smashed into pieces
Now the flowers in the teapot have all died
Just like the child
Was that just in her mind?
She says her heart is growing cold
Now the window will not close
Perhaps she'll put a spell on you
Perhaps she'll put a spell on you
Heu... Est-ce que tu veux m'embrasser?
Dis oui
Oui
Dis oui, tu veux m'embrasser?
C'est chouette
C'est chouette, hein?
Je me joins à toi
Comme la vague
Se joint à la mer
Je t'aime
Tu le sais
Mais ça ne fait rien
Je me joins à toi
Comme la vague
Se joint à la mer
Je t'aime
Tu le sais
Mais ça ne fait rien
C'est la fin de la chanson?
For something that she saw
Underneath the bed
She said it's the devil that saw
In the mirror that she swore at
Smashed into pieces
Just like the child
Was that just in her mind?
She says her heart is growing cold
Now the window will not close
Perhaps she'll put a spell on you
Dis oui
Oui
Dis oui, tu veux m'embrasser?
C'est chouette
C'est chouette, hein?
Comme la vague
Se joint à la mer
Tu le sais
Mais ça ne fait rien
Comme la vague
Se joint à la mer
Tu le sais
Mais ça ne fait rien

This song is really beautiful.....and also a bit different from the other songs the libs have done. really like it
I was wondering when someone would comment on this song! It's one of my fave. libs songs, it's got a beautiful hypnotic sort of quality, i love it.
very underappreciated song
the song seems to be about some guy who is treating the woman extremly poorly causing her too feel insecure and cold within but, as you can see from the french lyrics, she continues to love him even though she nows its pointless.
beautiful yet sad at the same time. i think the french part is in french purely for an extra pinch of romanticism.
english translation:
Erm ... Do you want my number? Say Yes Yes Say yes, you want my number? Is it nice Is it nice, huh?
I join you As the wave is attached to the sea
I love you You know But it does nothing
I join you As the wave is attached to the sea
I love you You know But it does nothing
This is the end of the song?
Who is the woman singing the French part?
I really like this song, it's soft and has a sweet sound...I'm not sure what it could mean, though.
my guess as to what it means:
the monkey whore i think is a man who gets a woman pregnant, but then leaves her, because she saw something under the bed, havent got a clue what that means then because the father has left she feels the baby has sort of died in spirit and then the french bit shows how the relationship started as just something casual, but it moved into something more for the woman but remained casual for the man - the woman says: "i love you, but it does nothing".
but yeah that could be all wrong. very good song
This song's about Carl being a woman.
