Eternal Monkey

i spent quarantine alone locked inside a tiny guest house in beverlywood, los angeles.  the space was cramped, but the saving grace of the place was a private little outdoor patio which i begrudgingly shared with the worlds largest population of crickets, or, as i like to call them, croquets.

i woke up everyday and spent my daylight hours grinding online poker - playing 3-4 tables at a time nonstop.  i’d eat breakfast while playing poker.  workout while playing poker.  call my family while playing poker.  the sun would set, and i’d close out the tables and walk down the tiny hall into my tiny bedroom studio, where i’d write and record until the sun came up, and then do it all over again.  for 8 months.  just me and the croquets. 

when i started working on this album, my life was a mess.  i was navigating a potential breakup with my girlfriend of 9 years.  i was on the verge of quitting poker after an extended brutal stretch.  i hadn’t written a song, or even stepped into the studio in ages. i was an irritable, miserable, downtrodden shell of myself.

things have changed a lot since i moved out of that little house.  my (then) girlfriend came out to los angeles with me.  we moved together into a (less tiny) house.  poker provided me with a level of stability and comfort for the first time in my adult life.  oh, and my (then) girlfriend?  we’re engaged.

i don’t really have much in common with the person who started this journey in music more than a dozen years ago.  my tastes have evolved.  my priorities have shifted.  while i’ll always be writing, recording or creating in some form or fashion - this feels like the end of the road for “marc goone”.

still - it seemed fitting to put this album out into the world before turning the page on a new chapter.  this album that saved my life.  this album that i worked on every night for 8 months in that tiny house in beverlywood, all while my little co-inhabitants caused quite the ruckus on that wonderful little patio.    this one is called, “croquet”.  it’s out now everywhere.  i hope you enjoy <3

I WANT MORE

LYRICS:

It’s not a matter of “if”… if it’s gonna happen

It’s, am I willing to stay in longer than anybody else?

If the crime I’ve committed is “commitment”

Guilty as charged


Got a feeling they gon’ love me, love me

When I was broke you didn’t want me, want me

How dare you ever say you trust me, trust me

I brought you here, you here because me, rush me 

To hang it up, psh - you must be, must be

Sleeping on the one above me

Leave me for another one, then realize that it was me

Man got here with the belief of no one but me, don’t interrupt me


Got a feeling they gon’ love me

When I was broke, they couldn’t touch me

When I turn this bitch upside down, don’t be acting like you loved me, trust me

Got a feeling they gon’ love me

When I was broke you didn’t want me

I’ma turn this bitch upside down 

Keep it a buck I know you’ll judge me, love me, fuck me


As a man I must become the one that no one else believes in yet

And if the market undervalues who I am and my ideas, yes

I double down, buy up all the shares and remain fearless

My diamond hands hodl for the future a you ain’t seeing yet

Seed, root, tree, fruit - if it ain’t that, better reassess

Whatchu think i’ma just wake up and just see a check

Takes time to build great, this ain’t a goddamn IKEA set


Got a feeling they gon’ love me

When I was broke, they couldn’t touch me

When I turn this bitch upside down, don’t be acting like you loved me, trust me

Got a feeling they gon’ love me

When I was broke you didn’t want me

I’ma turn this bitch upside down 

Keep it a buck I know you’ll judge me, love me, fuck me


What if shit works out would you come looking for me

Would you tell me that you proud that I believed in me

Cuz I never gave in to their opinions of me

Even though you caved in on waiting for me

You always thought it wouldn’t work out

Cuz when I put the work out

No one put the word out

But I kept on working

Became a stronger person

Though the pain that it caused me

When situations worsened

I almost fucking lost me

The tide always turns out

They thought my flame burned out

Always gave love this the Karma that I earn now

They all saved up, I invested in my words

Now every crisis was a blessing, look how everything done turned out 

Holding on for dear life when you thought I was a burnout

It was kick it to the curb, or get kicked to the curb, I

Had to turn up when all the volume knobs were turned down

What else is new, call me crazy but


Got a feeling they gon’ love me

When I was broke, they couldn’t touch me

When I turn this bitch upside down, don’t be acting like you loved me, trust me

Got a feeling they gon’ love me

When I was broke you didn’t want me

I’ma turn this bitch upside down

Keep it a buck I know you’ll judge me, love me

Got a feeling they gon’ love me

When I was broke, they couldn’t touch me

When I turn this bitch upside down, don’t be acting like you loved me, trust me

Got a feeling they gon’ love me

When I was broke you didn’t want me

I’ma turn this bitch upside down 

Keep it a buck I know you’ll judge me, love me, fuck me

VERSE 1
A little red notification button
Look who it is.. 
It’s Mr. Break My Heart Right Into Pieces 
gone ever since. 

Did you mis-understand the last message I sent?
you came and you went, and I said never again

PRE CHORUS
Oh it’s too bad 
That It didn’t work with your girlfriend 
You’re coming back 
but you’re not dealing with the same person 

HOOK
I just let you go 
Now you’re coming back for more 
I don't even want to know
I am not a fallback girl...

POST HOOK
Fa La La La Fallback girl
X3

Holla but I'm not that
Holla bet you want that 
Sorry but not that girl 

VERSE 2:: 
You only think about me when your dreaming
I bet you miss, when I was lying right beside you 
‘Cuz you called me late from an unknown number 
Getting desperate

Did you mis-understand the last message I sent?
you came and you went,  and I said never again

PRE CHORUS
Oh it’s too bad 
That It didn’t work with your girlfriend 
You’re coming back 
but you’re not dealing with the same person

I don't even want to know
I am not a fallback girl...

Holla bet you want that 
Sorry but I’m not that -

BRIDGE
Girl who tries to compromise,
you can’t decide what you want in your
life 
we’re over, had my closure, 
not your fall back girl, I told you.

Did you mis-understand the last message I sent?
you came and you went,  and I said never again

PRE CHORUS
Oh it’s too bad 
That it didn’t work with your girlfriend 
You’re coming back 
but you’re not dealing with the same person 

HOOK
I just let you go (go)
Now you’re coming back for more 
I don't even want to know
I am not a fallback girl...

POST HOOK
Fa La La La Fallback girl
X3
Holla but I'm not that
Holla bet you want that 
Sorry but I'm not that girl
