[Intro] [spoken, slightly creepy but friendly group of voices] Sid took us apartโฆ and put us back together wrong. But weโre still toys. And we still play. [Verse 1] [low breathy close-mic, theatrical and slightly raspy] He took my head and gave me someone elseโs face Stitched my arms on backward, put wheels where legs should be He said it was an experiment, said it was for science But now weโre something new and weโre finally free [Pre-Chorus] [energy builds, playful] [Chorus] [powerful belt with runs, fun and anthemic] We may look like monsters, we may look like mistakes But weโre Sidโs little monsters and weโve got what it takes Weโve got each other when the lights go out Weโre broken and beautiful, thatโs what weโre about [Verse 2] [intimate, natural phrasing with a bit of growl] He melted my face and he glued on new parts He laughed when we screamed, but we found our own hearts Now we march through the dark with our heads held up high We donโt need to be perfect โ we just need to try [Chorus] [powerful belt with runs, fun and anthemic] We may look like monsters, we may look like mistakes But weโre Sidโs little monsters and weโve got what it takes Weโve got each other when the lights go out Weโre broken and beautiful, thatโs what weโre about [Bridge] [beat drops to eerie music box then insane electric violin solo 12 bars: slow weeping glissandos turning into fast dรฉtachรฉ runs and ricochet on E string, high fff dynamic with distortion and delay, frantic tremolo and harmonics, building to double stops and triumphant sul ponticello screech, full band crash on final note] [Verse 3] [emotionally reactive, spoken-sung to soaring belt] We donโt scare the good toys, we just want to play We were made in the shadows but we found our own way Sid thought he was breaking us โ he was only making more Now weโre stronger together than we ever were before [Final Chorus] [soaring raw belt with ad-libs, joyful and defiant] We may look like monsters, we may look like mistakes But weโre Sidโs little monsters and weโve got what it takes Weโve got each other when the lights go out Weโre broken and beautiful โ shout it out loud! [Outro] [group vocals + ad-libs fading] Weโre broken and beautifulโฆ Weโre Sidโs little monsters nowโฆ
