TOWER OF POWER
"Keep Your Monster On A Leash"
(Emilio Castillo / Stephen Kupka)

Some people let their monster do the talkin' all night long
Some people drink and drink 'til they pass out
Some people don't know what I'm talkin' about

It's very easy
His own to each:

[Chorus:]
You've got to keep your monster on a leash
You've got to keep your monster on a leash

(Yes you do)

Some people paint their bodies black and blue
Let their monster get creative, yes they do
(Ha, ha!)
Some people like to spike their oily hair
Some people like to lose; they just don't care

Hear what I'm saying?
Just listen to the words I preach:

[Chorus:]
You've got to keep your monster on a leash
(Yeah, yeah)
(Ha!)
You've got to keep your monster on a leash

(Listen!)

[Bridge:]
If you borrow
From tomorrow,
Your future will be grim
If you really love yor monster
You don't wanna have to do him in,

[Chorus:]
Just keep your monster on a leash
Keep your monster on a leash

Some people almost die to go get live
Let their monster take control and take a dive
Some people spend their paychecks to get well
Some people can't relate, but what the hell

It's very simple
Stand up on your own two feet

[Chorus:]
You've got to keep your monster on a leash
You've got to keep your monster on a leash

(Yeah, yeah)

[Bridge:]
If you borrow
From tomorrow,
There's trouble on the way
So you better leash your monster,
Or there's gonna be hell to pay,

[Chorus:]
Just keep your monster on a leash
Keep your monster on a leash
(Haunt!)
Keep your monster on a leash
(Hit me!)
(Uh!)
(Hey!)

Take 'em on a walk,
Some who might(ha!)
On a leash
Oh, yeah!
Your monster on a leash (ha)

Oh, get a grip on your godzilla
Go ahead, go ahead and hold hands with rodans
On a leash
Keep your monster on a leash
