One Eyed Monster

One-Eyed Monster

Young boy
wide eyed
Mom pulls him now
Aside
Explain
the meaning of life

Ideals
The few
Imposing now
On you
Don’t cha
Believe a word they say

My mother said
The devil’s in the box
My Mother called it
A one eyed monster
My mother said
The devil is a fox
My mother called it
A one eyed monster

Boob tube
All lies
Don’t act all
Suprised
Tell you
What you have to believe

Get up
Stand up
Your turn now
Or shut up
Stay silent
And get what they give

My mother said
The devil’s in the box
Mother called it
A one eyed monster
mother said
The devil is a fox
mother called it
A one eyed monster

The fires in you
They’ll tell you what
To do
Your light
will help show you the way

They are hell bent
Convictions are all spent
You know
what mother told you to do
