Everclear - American Monster lyrics
Artist: Everclear
album: Black Is The New Black
On the edge of the American dream
A perfect place for someone like me
I like the way trouble rises to the top
It makes my bitter life a little more sweet
Bad people do bad things
I am the monster that you see in your dreams
A bad seed in a little pink bow
I am a problem that you never want to know
You gotta understand, you better believe
The monster in you brings out the monster in me
Ah yeah
You better believe there is a monster in me
I am a nice bright family of four
You don't wanna know what's behind my door
I'm your little sister I'm addicted to crack
I do bad things for money that would give my dad a heart attack
No angels on the streets where I sell
Very little heaven and a whole lotta hell
Nothing is as scary as true life can be
I'm the only devil that you're ever gonna see
You better run understand you better believe
That the victim in you brings out the monster in me
I'm the worst thing you'll ever see
You better run from the monster in me
I'm the last thing you'll ever see
You better run from the monster in me
You better run
I'm a meth lab on a residential street
I took all your money in a ponzi scheme
I am your neighborhood predator priest
I kill for fun just to hear you scream
Bad people like to do bad things
I don't wanna be better, I don't wanna be saved
You better pay attention and you better beware
You better understand monsters are everywhere
You better beware, you better understand
Monsters are everywhere
Yeah you better beware
You better understand
Monsters are everywhere
I'm the worst thing you've ever seen
You'll never get away from the monster in me
I'm the last thing you'll ever see
Cause you'll never run away from the monster in me
A perfect place for someone like me
I like the way trouble rises to the top
It makes my bitter life a little more sweet
Bad people do bad things
I am the monster that you see in your dreams
A bad seed in a little pink bow
I am a problem that you never want to know
You gotta understand, you better believe
The monster in you brings out the monster in me
Ah yeah
You better believe there is a monster in me
I am a nice bright family of four
You don't wanna know what's behind my door
I'm your little sister I'm addicted to crack
I do bad things for money that would give my dad a heart attack
No angels on the streets where I sell
Very little heaven and a whole lotta hell
Nothing is as scary as true life can be
I'm the only devil that you're ever gonna see
You better run understand you better believe
That the victim in you brings out the monster in me
I'm the worst thing you'll ever see
You better run from the monster in me
I'm the last thing you'll ever see
You better run from the monster in me
You better run
I'm a meth lab on a residential street
I took all your money in a ponzi scheme
I am your neighborhood predator priest
I kill for fun just to hear you scream
Bad people like to do bad things
I don't wanna be better, I don't wanna be saved
You better pay attention and you better beware
You better understand monsters are everywhere
You better beware, you better understand
Monsters are everywhere
Yeah you better beware
You better understand
Monsters are everywhere
I'm the worst thing you've ever seen
You'll never get away from the monster in me
I'm the last thing you'll ever see
Cause you'll never run away from the monster in me
