Lyrics
How To Create a Monster
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Spawn them out of selfishness
On a drunken moonless night
Add a pinch of hopelessness
Just to get it right
Fill their lives with disgust
Be sure to crush their trust
Belittle, terrorize, denigrate
Let them know you are their fate
They are your little playthings
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
You brought them into this world
And you can take them right back out
Be careful what you wish for
'Cause wishes do come true
The monster you're creating
Looks uncannily like you
Foster an atmosphere
Of instability and alienation
Add a slice of fear
To spice up your creation
When you have them at your feet
Don't be shy and just repeat
This hurts me more than it hurts you
I only want what is best for you
Be careful what you wish for
'Cause wishes do come true
The monster you're creating
Looks uncannily like you
Neglect them, brutalize them
Incorporate psychic numbing
And then harm them some more
Till their bodies and souls are sore
Be careful what you wish for
'Cause wishes do come true
The monster you're creating
Looks uncannily like you
It was you all along
How did you get it wrong?
Through and through
The only monster here is you
