[Intro] Sometimes I watch the shadows Sometimes I watch the light Sometimes I see them hiding Right here in plain sight There's monsters in the world They feast on us every day Who ever would have thought That night is where safety lay [Verse 1] The world is full of monsters But not the right kind There's greed behind the bank While we all stand in line There's monsters in the details Hungering for every last dime [Pre-Chorus] They feed on our kindness The wear us down to naught They slither into our lives And take everything we've got [Chorus] The world needs real monsters Scarier than what we've got Not thieving bastards gambling And determining our lot Yes the world is full of monsters Greedy bastards the whole lot Oh the world needs real monsters To eat the ones we've got [Verse 2] We tell tales of bankers And politicians too Who steal the lives from under The feet of me and you They rob us with lies and red tape That's what those assholes do [Chorus] The world needs real monsters Scarier than what we've got Not thieving bastards gambling And determining our lot Yes the world is full of monsters Greedy bastards the whole lot Oh the world needs real monsters To eat the ones we've got [Bridge] Claws and fangs and talons Rending flesh bone and sinew The monsters that the world needs They're hungrier than you There's no escaping justice When the monsters come... They'll give you what is overdue! [Chorus] The world needs real monsters Scarier than what we've got Not thieving bastards gambling And determining our lot Yes the world is full of monsters Greedy bastards the whole lot Oh the world needs real monsters To eat the ones we've got [Coda] Every night I dream of a world A place for me and you And hungry monsters feasting On the monsters that look like you They're really not so bad And they leave with the morning dew So when they come a-knocking We'll finally See The End Of ... You!
