Of Monsters and Men - Dirty Paws 가사



Jumping up and 



down the floor 



My head is an animal 



And once there was an animal 



It had a son 



that mowed the lawn 



The son was an ok guy 



They had a pet dragonfly



The dragonfly it ran away



But it came back 



with a story to say



Her dirty paws and furry coat



She ran down the forest slope



The forest of talking trees



They used to sing 



about the birds and the bees



The bees had declared a war 



The sky wasn't big enough 



for them all



The birds they got 



help from below



From dirty paws and 



the creatures of snow



And for a while things were cold 



They were scared down 



in their holes 



The forest that once was green 



Was colored black by 



those killing machines



But she and her furry friends 



Took down the queen 



bee and her men 



And that's how the story goes 



The story of the beast 



with those four dirty paws
