Me and My Monkey Lyrics

Cover art for Me and My Monkey lyrics by Robbie Williams

His drug addiction is a monkey on his back. His weekend was a fork in the road as it took a defining nose dive into oblivion to finally result in a Mexican stand - off. A situation that could not continue had been building and finally Robbie realised he and his addiction were big trouble and so the monkey on his back had to be gotten rid of or it would take Robbie down if he did not stem the steep nose dive his life was in. Often with addicts including drinkers often a big bender will be what brings a hault to the repetitive behaviour the strong use this as the sign to stop digging the ig hole you are caught in and with support climb out and never look back. Then there are those who seem to be less able to escape. Perhaps Robbie having everything saw him realise he coukd easily lose it and end up another tragic rock star found dead way to young with so much to live for...much more than most. Often a strength is a weakness the means to do what ever you wish can be the means to fall harder with bucks to spend and high quality product it easily finances the temptations most of is can't afford. Many may even say it's a given drugs can inspire experience and uninhibited song writing ability thinking outside the square many great songs are written under wild imaginative, emotional trips of which also inspired many a song...feeding emotions making mistakes, lost love when one walks away from the life much earlier unable to be together due to the destructive nature of addiction.

Don't forget that these lyrics draw eerie similarities with the 2017 Vegas shooting.
