Where The Wild Things Are, Written by Jason Newsted, James Hetfield, And Lars Ulrich, Where The Wild Things Are is about children who are born with sin in them. But it’s up to the children to live a pure life or an evil life.
[Chorus 1]
So wake up, sleepy one
It's time to save your world
[Verse 1]
Steal dreams and give to you
Shoplift a thought or two
All children touch the sun
Burn fingers one by one, by one
Will this earth be good to you?
Keep you clean or stain through?
[Chorus 2]
So wake up, sleepy one
It's time to save your world
You're where the wild things are
Yeah, toy soldiers off to war
[Verse 2]
Big eyes to open soon
Believing all under sun and moon
But does heaven know you're here?
And did they give you smiles or tears?
No, no tears
Will this earth be good to you?
Keep you clean or stain through?
[Chorus 2]
So wake up, sleepy one
It's time to save your world
You're where the wild things are
Yeah, toy soldiers off to war

[Backing Vocals]
You swing your rattle down
(Hand puppets storm the base! Flags up now cannons rage! Hand puppets storm the base!)
Call to arms the trumpets sound
(Flags up now cannons rage! All clowns head for the rear! Slingshots fire to the air!)
Toy horses start the charge
(All clowns head for the rear! Slingshots fire to the air! Slip into the edge of death!)
Robots, chessmen standing guard
(Crossfire to the marionettes! Slip into the edge of death! Crossfire to the marionettes!)
We shall never surrender
All children touch the sun
Burn your fingers one by one
Will this earth be good to you?
Keep you clean or stain through
[Chorus 2]
So wake up, sleepy one
It's time to save your world
You're where the wild things are
Yeah, toy soldiers off to war
[Outro]
So close your little eyes
