Текст песни: Introduction + перевод

All good children have to wear a costume

To unravel what and who they should have been

Some are delightful, yes

And some are unruly, yes

And some are rarely seen

And parents hide their envy as they have to

Maintain a handle delicate in greed

On the charming creature now standing in their bedroom

Who’s probably still human underneath

But we all know that order is an ovulating Cain toad

And children often hate those foul boils

And Maximilian he’s the son of a priests' wife and

They often spoil

So Max’s mother makes him wear his costume

And releases a monster terrible and fell

And the charming creature she was hoping to encourage

Proceeds to make her life a living hell

You see, Maximilian’s costume was an

Overlying cause of gnashing teeth and angry growls

Marching, bashing, break and smashing

Paint the dishes crack the lamps

Clog the toilet, rip your pants

Stain the carpet, scratch the floor

Tear the sofa, jam the door

Toss the tables, Run the walls

Hide frogs in your overalls!

Paint the town until it’s red

Kill your sister, raise the dead!

Wild thing, if you’re not good

Then you’ll go to bed without your food

See, entropy is often named

By meddling adults tired of games

I’ll eat you up, he says

I’ll eat you up, he screams and drools

I’ll eat you up, as he’s robbed of his dinner

I’ll eat you up, as he’s sent, to his room

So max, he growls up to his hungry bedroom

To the tapping of his mother’s scolding tongue

For as wild as he is there is something in her voice

She makes her empty threats and off he goes

But children they know how to make an exit

And it’s fortunate as luck would be above it

And our boy Max, well he’s a bit of an expert

He fills his lungs and starts to slam the door

I’ll eat you up!

I’ll eat you up!

I’ll eat you up!
