we laid the foundations down
When the site was found
we laid the foundations down
It didn't take long
before they came back tumbling down
Don't build at night
you need a little light
How else you gonna see
what it's gonna be like?
So we picked up our tools
and we worked in the morning light
With the last stone placed
wasn't it a wonderful sight?
But it fell back down
and scattered all around
Anything passes
when you need glasses
My monument
Monument
My monument
it fell down
My monument
Work all of my days
for this kind of praise
My monument
Don't build at night
you need a little light
How else you gonna see
what it's gonna be like?
My monument
Monument
My monument
it fell down
My monument
