作曲 : Gilmore, Scott | |
Stretched between the lamplight and the cigarette ash | |
In the corner of the city where the markets crashed | |
There are boxes of the lonely here and fires of hope | |
We built a monster | |
We built a monster | |
You can take a bit of red, a bit of white and blue | |
From across the Atlantic laying trails to you | |
A little flash of lightning and some bully boy charm | |
We built a monster | |
We built a monster | |
This thing can cross oceans in its seven league boots | |
It can chew the money tree right down to its roots | |
The ship of a state can go under in minutes | |
You don’t know the flood is coming until you’re swimming in it. | |
It ain’t come from the hungry, it ain’t come from the bored | |
It ain’t tramping out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored | |
It spins like a tequila worm inside all of us | |
We built a monster | |
We built a monster | |
It can breathe its greed into innocent souls | |
It can raise up armies, it can blow ‘em full of holes | |
It can dress for occasion if occasion demands | |
There is power in the chase, there is power in the hand | |
So the city flickers on like a reeperbahn night | |
Hissing like a wildcat just about to fight | |
And it mutters that we rule by the ladders of degree | |
We built a monster | |
We built a monster | |
We built a monster | |
We built a monster |
