↓ LYRICS ↓

You're twistin' my melon man, you know you talk so hip man
You're twistin' my melon man, call the cops

Hey rainmaker, come away from that man
You know he's gonna take away your promised land
Hey good lady he just wants what you got you know
He'll never stop until he's taken the lot
(Hey hey hey he hey hey)

Gonna stamp out your fire, he can change your desire
Don't you know he can make you forget you're a man
Gonna stamp out your fire, he can change your desire
Don't you know he can make you forget you're a man
You're a man

Hey rainmaker he got golden plans I tell you
He'll make a stranger in your own land
Hey good lady he's got God on his side he got a double
Tongue you never think he would lie
Gonna stamp out your fire, he can change your desire
Don't you know he can make you forget you're a man
Gonna stamp out your fire, he can change your desire
Don't you know he can make you forget you're a man
You're a man

He's gonna step on you again, he's gonna step on you
He's gonna step on you again, he's gonna step on you
Hey rainmaker, come away from that man
You know he's gonna take away your promised land
Hey good lady he's got God on his side he got a double
Tongue you never think he would lie
Gonna stamp out your fire, he can change your desire
Don't you know he can make you forget you're a man
Gonna stamp out your fire, he can change your desire

Don't you know he can make you forget you're a man
You're a man
You're twistin' my melon man, you know you talk so hip man
You're twistin' my melon man
(Hey hey hey he hey hey)

[cheekynarnar]

54 year old Manc here. Manchester was cool as fuckin the 90's. Flares, acid, Afflecks, Hacienda, Reni hats, we were the centre of the universe

[mattrasbury]

Massive fan from Alabama lol nobody I talk to has a clue who the happy mondays are or any band from Manchester lol

[luismode-]

The stone roses, The smiths, The charlatans, oasis and happy Mondays, God bless the Madchester era, the land of the kings of rock.

[levieenrose]

The early 90s, Manchester and the Happy Mondays...Best times of my life. R.I.P Paul.

[topicaloranges]

I'm American and I've concluded the Madchester scene was one of a kind. One of the most interesting sounds in music, and one of the best eras in modern music history.

[ruthdixon]

this song is like a time capsule, brings back so many great memories. I think most happy mondays record’s still stand up perfectly well.

[moaninggimp]

Sitting on a hillside fcked up...watching the sun rise ..middle of summer ....laughing our heads off ....sisters n brothers from other mothers..(still have that connection today)....trying to comprehend how happy we were 88-91 warehouse parties...BEAUTIFUL...i lived the dream 🙏

[davidsymonds]

Im 49 now and this time was without doubt the best days of my life ... I certainly twisted my mellon man ... ohhhh yeeeeaaaahhh. drugs clubs and more drugs and yet more clubs ... I wish I was back there now my kids who were born in this era are calling me old .... cheeky buggers

[Roller_Ghoster]

[richardmarks]

Farewell Paul Ryder: great memories from the beginning of the best decade for British Music. RIP

[franvjscisjw]

Luka modric is now my favourite singer

[petermcgivern]

Still an amazing tune 30 years on, they could play live like no other band, pure bedlam, love it

[clarebowers]

[chrissalter]

[onamishun]

R. I. P Paul Ryder an understated bass guitarist imo. Cheers for the memories especially Mondays Brixton 92 ❤️

[gsd]

I had the pleasure of meeting Shaun Ryder in a bar here in Dublin. An absolute down to Earth bloke. Asked for a photo and he happily obliged and shook my hand.

[thespies]

Absolute class track. Monday's definitely had their own sound.

[davidmurray]

Can't be many songs with an instantly recognisable guitar riff and an instantly recognisable piano riff. Love this song, still sounding fresh in 2020.
