Tiny Monsters Lyrics

It feels like an analogy for Celebrity Worship and the way it's built up into something hideous as the planet continues to get "smaller".

"Moonlight builds emotion as the players scuttle in Hold the curtain back and let the show begin

Day gives way to night on the storefront mannequins The audience with Mona Lisa grins"

The song brings to mind the Renaissance, times of emerging art. It sets the stage for the world, grinning confident that it has inspired and uplifted our world.

"Lunar mischief under the low-light discipline Hear the tiny monsters hump the harlequins"

But we're still just animals in some of our behaviors, aren't we. Soon, far from true enlightenment [we're still just chasing currency; we're territorial and violent]. We haven't been inspired and Celebrity Worship and Reality Television replaces the great arts as old.

"Silent patrons view the drama under low-light discipline Hear the tiny monsters hump the harlequins"

The masses watch on obsessed as Paris Hilton and Snookie debase themselves for status and wealth, the drama is tantalizing.

"Lunar mischief we kill be killed or run To be or not to be the overdone"

The Celebrity's battle back and forth to be the most obscene. It's pretty relevant in early 2014 where Miley Cirus and Justin Beiber; the latest in waves of stories of Celebrities escalating from general havoc into minor crimes, poisoning the weak minded and embarrassing us all, not to be outdone.
