Once upon a time, there was a village
That was being tormented by a man-eating lizard-dragon
The local constable did everything to kill this creature
He fashions a lance of green glass
And stabs the monster in its appendix
But as the monster is dying
The constable realizes he's been looking in the mirror
He was the monster all along, you see?
It's easier to believe in monsters out there in the world
Than to accept that the real monsters dwell within us
As the monster is dying
The constable realizes he's been looking in the mirror
He was the monster all along, you see?
The real monsters dwell within us
No matter how overwhelming our anxieties might be
They will soon be resolved
When we are dead and buried for all eternity
