[English]

Ah, ah, oh, oh

...

You've got no place to hide

And I'm feeling like a villain, got a hunger inside

One look in my eyes

And you're running 'cause I'm coming

Gonna eat you alive

(Ah, ah, oh, oh)

Your heart hits like a drum

(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

The chase has just begun

(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

Monsters stuck in your head

(We are, we are, we are)

Monsters under your bed

(We are, we are)

We are monsters, oh, oh

(We are, we are)

We are monsters, oh

...

Ah, ah, oh, oh

One misstep, you're mine

And you better stay clever if you wanna survive

Once you cross the line

You'll be wishing you would listen

When you meet your demise

Ah, ah, oh, oh

Your heart hits like a drum

(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

The hunt has just begun

(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

Monsters stuck in your head

(We are, we are, we are)

Monsters under your bed

(We are, we are)

We are monsters, oh, oh

(We are, we are)

We are monsters, oh

We never shoot to stun

We're kings of the killing, we're out for blood

We'll take 'em one by one

We're kings of the killing, we're out for blood

We never shoot to stun

We're kings of the killing, we're out for blood

We'll take 'em one by one

We're kings of the killing, we're out for blood

Monsters stuck in your head

(We are, we are, we are)

Monsters under your bed

(We are, we are)

We are monsters, oh, oh

(We are, we are)

We are monsters, oh

...

Ah, ah, oh, oh

Ah, ah, oh, oh

...
