Little Monsters

In the playground

Children sing their songs and skin their knees

Play, little monsters, play

I remember doing just the same so many years ago

And the things they'd say

I could handle sticks and stones

But those words still break my bones

Chorus

Little monsters that rule the world

You don't know what you're really saying

Stop before someone ends up getting hurt

Can't you see that we're only playing

I remember i was just another monster without life

'til the day you came

Dirty creatures, tiny animals that crawl towards the light

Don't you ever change

Chorus

Little monsters that rule the world

You don't know what you're really saying

Stop before someone ends up getting hurt

Can't you see that we're only playing

One day you will have to go

You'll have to learn to live alone

Chorus

I can't hold your hand anymore

I can't always kiss you better

Time to stand on your own two feet

Time to see just where they get you

Deep inside i'm still the same

Just one more little monster

Making out that she knows the rules

A sincere impostor
