[Verse 1]
The spirit it was freedom and justice
And its keepers seemed generous and kind
Its leaders were supposed to serve the country
But now they won't pay it no mind
[Verse 2]
'Cause the people grew fat and got lazy
Now their vote is a meaningless joke
They babble about law and order
But it's all just an echo of what they've been told
[Chorus]
Yeah, there's a monster on the loose
It's got our heads into the noose
And it just sits there watchin'
[Verse 3]
The cities have turned into jungles
And corruption is stranglin' the land
The police force is watching the people
And the people just can't understand
[Verse 4]
We don't know how to mind our own business
'Cause the whole world's got to be just like us
Now we are fighting a war over there
No matter who's the winner, we can't pay the cost
[Chorus]
'Cause there's a monster on the loose
It's got our heads into the noose
And it just sits there, watching
