Steppenwolf Monster [View all]

[damnedifIknow]

...Its leaders were supposed to save the country but now they won't pay her no mind.
...Because the people got fat and grew lazy, now their vote is like a meaningless joke.
You know they talk about law, about order, but it's all just an echo of what they've been told.
'Cause there is a monster on the loose. It's got our heads into the noose,
and it just sits there watching...

Our cities have turned into jungles. Destruction is plaguing the land.
The police force is watching the people, and the people just can't understand.
They don't know how to mind their own business. The whole world has got to be just like us...
Now we are fighting a war over there, no matter who wins, you know we can't pay the cost.
'Cause there is a monster on the loose. It's got our heads
into the noose, and it just sits there watching...

America, where are you now? Don't you care about your sons and daughters?
Don't you know we need you now. We can't fight alone against the monster.
