- Where The Wild Things Are LyricsSo wake up sleepy one
It's time to save your world
Steal dreams and give to you
Shop lift a thought or two
All children touch the sun
Burn fingers one by one, by one
Will this earth be good to you?
Keep you clean or stain through?
So wake up sleepy one
It's time to save your world
You're where the wild things are, yeah
Toy soldiers off to war
Big eyes to open too
Believing now under sun and moon
But does heaven know you're here?
And did they give you smiles or tears?
No, no tears
Will this earth be good to you?
Keep you clean or stain through?
So wake up sleepy one
It's time to save your world
You're where the wild things are, yeah
Toy soldiers off to war
You swing your ass all down
Call to arms, a trumpet's sound
Toy horses start the charge
Robots, chessmen standing guard
We shall never surrender
All you children touch the sun
Burn your fingers one by one
Will this earth be good to you?
Keep you clean or stain through?
So wake up sleepy one
It's time to save your world
You're where the wild things are, yeah
Toy soldiers off to war
Off to war, off to war
So close your little eyes
It's time to save your world
Steal dreams and give to you
Shop lift a thought or two
All children touch the sun
Burn fingers one by one, by one
Will this earth be good to you?
Keep you clean or stain through?
So wake up sleepy one
It's time to save your world
You're where the wild things are, yeah
Toy soldiers off to war
Big eyes to open too
Believing now under sun and moon
But does heaven know you're here?
And did they give you smiles or tears?
No, no tears
Will this earth be good to you?
Keep you clean or stain through?
It's time to save your world
You're where the wild things are, yeah
Toy soldiers off to war
You swing your ass all down
Call to arms, a trumpet's sound
Toy horses start the charge
Robots, chessmen standing guard
We shall never surrender
All you children touch the sun
Burn your fingers one by one
Will this earth be good to you?
Keep you clean or stain through?
So wake up sleepy one
It's time to save your world
You're where the wild things are, yeah
Toy soldiers off to war
Off to war, off to war
So close your little eyes

When we think about what all of this might truly mean, the Metalli?a's 'Where The Wild Things Are' song brings up the whole dilemma of waking up to the world's challenges and asking whether earth will be good enough to you or you will be left with a stain. Metaphors like children playing with the sun and toy soldiers fighting each other were employed by the writers to represent purity and the ruthless truths of life; so, the audience is called not to lose hope and become this boxing ring's last man even if they have to endure the hardships of life.
