Monster In A Shirt Lyrics

Could you see how I've sold my blood?
Gonna spill my seed all over the world
Shake a stick at the rule o' the world
Gonna shave myself a little closer

What I want to do is insane
I'm the sheriff and I'm back again
The reason that you're covered in dirt
I'm a monster in a shirt

Cos there the same wot social?
Gonna abuse myself all over the world
Jimmy D in the dead sundown
And the reason I'll say a little no no

You were the ones that settled in my arms
You were our sons
You were the ones we fought for and died
You were our sons

What I want to do is insane
I'm the sheriff and I'm back again
The reason that you're covered in dirt
I'm a monster in a shirt

What I want to do is insane
I'm the sheriff and I'm back again
The reason that you're covered in dirt
I'm a monster in a shirt

What I want to do is insane
I'm the sheriff and I'm back again
The reason that you're covered in dirt
I'm a monster in a shirt

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

The evil, two-faced ways of the ruling elite? Makes me think of Henry Kissinger.
