Monster Making Machines by Gabriella Callender May 2nd, 2011
Verse one
Bullet to the head
Body buried in the water
The monster is dead
Hip hip hooray!
We point, blame, stare
And cheer on the slaughter
A new monster
Is born again today
Chorus:
We are monster making machines
The omnipotent Monster God
Creating a world full of monster beings
Fear and kneel to the almighty facade
Verse two:
Hung by the neck
Body burned to the ground
Arms behind backs
Chained, head pushed down
Cracked by whips
Bling! Tobacco and cotton,
gold, oil monsters
cracked out soon forgotten
Chorus:
We are Monster making machines
The omnipotent Monster God
Creating a world full of monster beings
Fear and kneel to the almighty facade
Bridge
America is Dead
It’s been that way for a while now
The world as we know it is not true
The illusion that’s been sponsored by your favorite corporation
Is a world in which the monster is anyone one else but you
We are Monster making, monster making, monster making machines
The omnipotent Monster God ! yeah!
Creating a world full of monster beings
Fear and kneel and pray, and be a slave to
the almighty facade
Verse Three
Failed grade school
Streets know my name
Small towns need money
So I get blamed
Prison be home now
Caught up in a system
That makes money off of so many monsters
You can’t list ‘em
Chorus:
We are Monster making machines
The omnipotent Monster God
Creating a world full of monster beings
Fear and kneel to the almighty facade
