Metallica - Where the Wild Things Are lyrics

So wake up, sleepy one
It's time to save your world

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?

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

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

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

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

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

So close your little eyes
