En la década de los 70, plena era punk, un estudiante de arte llamado Michael Stipe conoce a un coleccionista de LP´s de los años 60 llamado Peter Buck. Ambos se unen a dos músicos experimentados, Mike Mills y Bill Berry, y comienzan a tocar en pubs locales en la ciudad de Athens.

[Riff] Here comes that awful feeling again Welcome the ugly animal. I hold my breath to what you sing, My pyro b-ba-ba ball and chain, I'm not afraid, I messed it, messed it, messed it, messed it up
AG I've got my telescope head in the haystack AG I'm getting tired of your dodgeball circus act AG NC Put pepper in my coffee, I forgot to bark on command
[Riff] Here comes that awful feeling again Make way for monster jealousy The strong man kicked sand into my breakfast cereal bowl I'd spelled your name with Oatios, he messed it, messed it, messed it, messed it up
AG I've got my telescope head in the haystack AG I'm getting tired of your dodgeball circus act AG NC Put pepper in my coffee, I forgot to bark on command

[Riff] If I were you I'd really run from me I really really wish that I were you I'd give this a crunchy and drop a load on your head This monster in me makes me wish you'd messed it, messed it up

(you're mean, mean, mean you tease, tease, tease me)
{Continue with the bridge progression until end.}
If I were you I'd really run from me I'd really really wish that I were you When I get loose I'll climb a tree and drop a load on your head This monster in me makes me retch, you messed it, messed it up
(you're mean, mean, mean you tease, tease, tease me)
Do you smell jealousy? Do you smell jealousy, jealousy, jealousy?
'You' off Monster is Dm, Gm for the verse and it holds Am for awhile and goes to C for the chorus (I think)...with a Dm riff during the verses (the notes are pretty much in the chord, hammer-on on the 2nd fret of G string and open D string).
Let the sun beat through the clouds, Let me kiss you on the mouth. All my childhood toys with chew marks in from a smile. Let me hold your syrup close to mine. Let me watch you, Hollywood and Vine. And I want you like the movies, touch me now. I love you crazy, just keep on. I love you madly, just keep watch. You wipe my lips, You turn me on. My attentions are turned to you.
Did I dream you were a tourist in the Arizona sun? I can see you there with luna moths and watermelon gum. I woke up in the sleeping bag, With nowhere else to run. You're standing in the bathroom telling me its all in fun. I love you crazy, just keep on. I love you madly, just keep watch. You wipe my lips, You turn me on. My attentions are turned to you.
I can whisper in your ear. I can write a calendar year I can wing around your Saturn smile, shut out the moon I walked the tension wire line. And I learned to disrespect the signs. And I want you like a Pisces rising, even though I love you crazy, just keep on. I love you madly, just keep watch. You wipe my lips, You turn me on. My attentions are turned to you.
