Monsters In The Parasol Lyrics


The walls are closing in again, oh well
The walls are closing in again, oh well
I seen some thing I thought I never saw
Covered in hair
Paul's dad is warped and bubbling, oh well
Paul's dad is warped and bubbling, oh well
And my mind is out here on another wave
Covered in hair

She won't grow

[Chorus]
You've got a monster (distress) in your parasol (body out??)
You've got a monster (dwarfs, doors?) in your parasol (of course)
You've got a monster (displeasure) in your parasol (I told you??)
You've got a monster ? in your parasol (x-nay?)
Paul's sister is an alien, oh well

Paul's sister is an alien, oh well
I seen some things I thought I never saw
Covered in hair

She won't grow

You've got a monster (distress, my pest?) in your parasol
You've got a monster (dwarfs) in your parasol (war horse)
You've got a monster (displeasure) in your parasol ?
You've got a hole in you I never saw ?
In your parasol, in your parasol

Monsters In The Parasol
  • According to Josh Homme, this song is about LSD. He said so at a concert in Madison, Wisconsin in October 2005, something to the effect of "since this is a college-town, here's a song about LSD."
  • Josh Homme told Mojo magazine September 2010 about the lyrical content of Rated R: "People used to ask me what the lyrics were about and I got scared and said, 'They're about something for me but I need them to be about you. They're about nothing'. I was always really sad that I said that, because it's always been the opposite. I always wanted the right sounds to cradle the right lyrics. Rated R was the first time I allowed myself, psychologically, to wear a feather boa out."
