Gustav - One Hand Mona lyrics

mona gave up taking pictures she lost her left arm and married karl 8 hours of sleep 8 hours of work 8 hours of leisure-time, of remedy 3 months of pregnancy - it takes 7 minutes to prepare the coffee and 4 and a half to eat a slice of bread she always dreamed of a white wedding but she lost her left arm and married karl - sometimes she wears this fancy jacket her mother calls her twice a week and she so wishes s** with her white clad dentist but she's just colouring her horoscopes with needs - shaving legs sundays friday night tears in everyday make up all day long year after year worn out small talks racked up pain pine away mona in your single-tracked train - mona stopped singing memorised melodies and she lost her faith in those credit card companies sometimes she gives karl head it's better than just resting in bed, she says. she says: it's a common way of life loosing one arm and becoming somebody's wife it's a common way of life loosing one arm and becoming somebody's wife - shaving legs sundays friday night tears everyday make up all day long year after year - but her secret pleasures are her monthly sent letters to defenceless 2-handed strangers destiny seldom comes painlessly one hand mona's resolutions tiny bloody executions little letter bomb explosions it's all in mona's hand - rise and shine mona rise and shine on them all let the world know who's really to blame for your amputating war - well the bird in mona's hand is better than the dove that flies above so the thing in which mona believes is not what we usually call love if she could she would make herself quite happy but what a pity she lost her left arm and married karl - rise and shine mona rise and shine on them all let the world know who's really to blame for your amputating war - stop counting hours of agony and stop suffering with dignity just send out fateful letters and execute them all - let the world know mona who is really insecure - rise and shine mona rise and shine on them all let world know who's really to blame for your amputating war - stop counting hours of agony and stop suffering with dignity just send out fateful letters and execute them all them all - be wary of your mailboxes, men ticktockticking mona might strike again she doesn't want to harm your wife but you might have to start with one hand less a brand new life.
