About

This beautiful song by Monsters of Folk uses powerful imagery of religion to juxtapose a scene of a young boy trying to find his purpose and his own voice.

His Master’s Voice Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Mohammed rolling dice with Christ at twilight
And they hear their master's voice, they run to do their chores
At master's calling
Their job tonight, re-write the Bible
For a whole new generation of non-believers

[Verse 2]
The pastor screams out to the crowd
"There's evil that must be put down!"
And it touches the soldier boy, he heeds his master's voice
His life is calling
Sweet soldier boy, the speaker's bleeding
He hears his master's voice, do you hear your master's voice?
Calling, like the lady siren's call

[Verse 3]
Sweet soldier, quiet, just staring at the ceiling
And he hears his master's voice, he hears the call to war
The siren's singing
Out on the line, there's something that strikes his side
He sees his inner child, he hears his mother's voice
Softly calling
Spirit soldier's mother hovers, she holds up a paper cup
And the sound of life and love fills her ear

[Bridge]
You're only gonna hear what you want to hear
Do you hear your master's voice now?

[Verse 4]
Mohammed and Christ speak twice as nice
But the one that I like best, he sings inside my chest
I hear my master calling

(Callin' out, callin' out)
(Callin' out, callin' out)
(Callin' out, callin' out)
(Callin' out, callin' out)
(Callin' out, callin' out)
