Depeche Mode - Monument lyrics

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 yo going to see

What it is going to be like!

So we picked up the 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 - it fell down

My Monument - it fell down

Work all of my days for this kind of praise,

It fell down

Work all of my days - it fell down.
