- Swamp Thing LyricsI can already hear your tune
Calling me across the room
When the world and his wife
Are on my back again
Not enough pleasure
Too much pain
When the world is too much with me
Please leave, just go away
Before I lose my mind completely
Please leave, just go now
In the side street something's moving
Look around, look around, all around you
Walls are tumbling down
Stop staring at the ground
I can practically see your face
And another revolutionary falls from grace
Hear the thunder in your brain
Not enough sunshine
Too much rain
When the light of life has gone
No change for the meter
Then the king of spivs will come
Selling blood by the liter
When nothing's sacred anymore
When the demon's knocking on your door
You'll still be staring down at the floor
Not too many hours from this hour
So long? The storm comes
Or is it just another shower?
Picking up the pieces
Half alive in a nine 'til five
Vacant eyes, is it any wonder?
Primal scream at the TV screen
Close your eyes
Now the world is too much with me
Please leave, just go away
Before I lose my mind completely
Just leave, please go now
Now nothing's sacred anymore
When the demon's breaking down your door
You'll still be staring down at the floor
Not too many hours from this hour
So long? Now the storm has come
Or is it just another shower?
Calling me across the room
When the world and his wife
Are on my back again
Not enough pleasure
Too much pain
When the world is too much with me
Please leave, just go away
Before I lose my mind completely
Please leave, just go now
In the side street something's moving
Look around, look around, all around you
Walls are tumbling down
Stop staring at the ground
I can practically see your face
And another revolutionary falls from grace
Hear the thunder in your brain
Not enough sunshine
Too much rain
When the light of life has gone
No change for the meter
Then the king of spivs will come
Selling blood by the liter
When nothing's sacred anymore
You'll still be staring down at the floor
Not too many hours from this hour
So long? The storm comes
Or is it just another shower?
Picking up the pieces
Half alive in a nine 'til five
Vacant eyes, is it any wonder?
Primal scream at the TV screen
Close your eyes
Now the world is too much with me
Please leave, just go away
Before I lose my mind completely
Just leave, please go now
Now nothing's sacred anymore
When the demon's breaking down your door
You'll still be staring down at the floor
Not too many hours from this hour
So long? Now the storm has come
Or is it just another shower?

✔️
It is first released in 2002 as part of Chameleons's album "Live At the Academy" which includes 10 tracks in total. This song is the 4th track on this album.
✔️
When we interpret the meaning being expressed, the Chameleons composed the song 'Swamp Thing' to express the feeling of being overwhelmed by life's difficulties and negativity, which were represented by the world's grind and personal strife. The words to the song narrate a wanting for withdrawal and a seeking of peace amid disorder, thereby accentuating the notion of trying to retain one's mental stability and individuality in the struggle against hostile forces. Swamp Thing's lyrics mainly spotlight hopelessness, suffering, introspection, and social critique along with anger. Meanwhile, the song underlines the necessity of struggle and despair, isolation and longing, and the loss of innocence. The lyrics involve themes of emotional turmoil and existential questioning, which, perhaps, are not appropriate for little kids. Even though there are no direct allusions to violence, sex, or drug use, the overall atmosphere and some of the visuals could still be a bit heavy and thus, require the presence of a parent or guardian.
