Everclear - American Monster Lyrics
On the edge of the American dream
A perfect place for someone like me
I like the way trouble rises to the top
It makes my bitter life a little more sweet
I am the monster that you see in your dreams
A bad seed in a little pink bow
I am a problem that you never want to know
You gotta understand, you better believe
The monster in you brings out the monster in me
Ah yeah
You better believe there is a monster in me
I am a nice bright family of four
You don’t wanna know what’s behind my door
I do bad things for money that would give my dad a heart attack
No angels on the streets where I sell
Very little heaven and a whole lotta hell
Nothing is as scary as true life can be
I’m the only devil that you’re ever gonna see
You better run understand you better believe
That the victim in you brings out the monster in me
I’m the worst thing you’ll ever see
You better run from the monster in me
I’m the last thing you’ll ever see
You better run from the monster in me
You better run
I’m a meth lab on a residential street
I took all your money in a ponzi scheme
I am your neighborhood predator priest
I kill for fun just to hear you scream
Bad people like to do bad things
I don’t wanna be better, I don’t wanna be saved
You better pay attention and you better beware
You better understand monsters are everywhere
You better beware, you better understand
Monsters are everywhere
Yeah you better beware
You better understand
Monsters are everywhere
I’m the worst thing you’ve ever seen
You’ll never get away from the monster in me
I’m the last thing you’ll ever see
Cause you’ll never run away from the monster in me

Everclear American Monster Comments
Looking for the show I found a song lol.
Rock on Davie French, Knights Rule!
Black is the New Black was a fucking awesome album! Hope Summerland 2018 makes a stop in Michigan!
I love this song!!!
The AFTERGLOW is back; back in black!💪🗣🤙
💀🔥🖤🔥💀
sounds good Art
They were in Atlanta twice this past year and dammit if I didn't miss them both times. fan since World of Noise. Thanks for making love to my ears all of these years.
I like the fact that they have kept that old feeling but have still adapted and don't feel outdated.
welcome back Everclear !!!!! we missed you haha
Holy shit! Back with a vengeance.
Everclear are back with balls once more!
FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG..........SO SIMALER TO ME........NOT THAT MUCH
Great sound; a lot like what I listened to before and after school growing up in the 90's. Can't wait to see you guys again here in Austin next month; will be the 3rd time in last 4 years.
This is killer
As always, never let down....Although this album excites me like the early years. Noise, Sparkle or Afterglow.....The American Movie releases weren't bad & Slow Motion was underrated I thought. Although I enjoyed Invisible Stars a lot, Drama Club had a few really good ones but for this there's Almost some White Trash Hell going on....Love it!! best in a while. :-)
sounds like the new avenged sevenfold
l like pie, and their new Album is great!
Great sounding album, saw them do the Sparkle and Fade 20th anniversary tour in Auckland last week, it was so freakin' good, never thought I'd get to see it live!!
Great album! Definitely what I have been waiting for since Sparkle and Fade.
@Matt Dodd Agreed
it's good but it's nowhere near sparkle and fade that album is just on a whole nother level
My mother raised me on this band, so glad to hear something new from them. One of my all time favorite bands, I must admit!!!
Today's anthem brought to you by one of the best ....
It is called the American dream because you have to be asleep for it to make sense.
Sounds much more inspired than the last 3 or so offerings.Thank you Art for gettin back to rock basics
FANTASTIC Art. That's what I'm talking about!!! Bring back EVERCLEAR
I have been waiting for so long for an album from everclear that sounds like this! This the darker side, this is rock and roll.
Thank you,
Art.
This. Song. Rocks.
Happy Birthday Art!!!!! You will be coming to Pittsburgh this June and my wife and
I can't wait! Hope your day is blessed
The first 18 seconds or so really had me intrigued... after that... not my cup of tea.
Funny I looked up Santa Monica and had no idea this was out , good to hear some new stuff
Not bad i am really digging the new material cant wait to see it play in a show
Sounds great! I can't wait for the new album.
Vaya cambio! Fabuloso el disco y el cambio, se han adaptado bien y el nuevo ritmo agrada~ Everclear no pares de tocar
really dig this track! \m/\m/ Here's a write-up I did about it:
http://zumic.com/music-videos/166720/american-monster-everclear-youtube-official-audio-stream/
What a change, they adapted well..
Fantastic... really sounds like they have found their sound now (since the forming of the new line up)
I completely agree.
Invisible stars was okay but seem like today's music I like the rock style they re doing now
*fangirls and faints* I'm blasting this all day every day! YES!
Absolutely fabulous !
Fuck yes.
