Six kids didn't know it was too late
Six kids didn't hear evacuate
Suddenly the playground is a battlefield
Suddenly you're left without a sword and shield
Suddenly America's at war against an ancient beast
And you're right there 'cuz no one rang the bell
Recess took a turn and went to hell.

Verse
Six kids, frozen on the jungle gym
Six kids, it's you and him
And her and her and her and him
Suddenly the gunfire makes a wall of sound
And then one single noise breaks that wall down
Suddenly, the giant monster's roar rumbles through playground bark
And you're so certain you don't stand a chance
Recess sucks and now you've peed your pants.
Bridge
They shoot it in the neck and it collapses for a moment
Suddenly the soldiers brandish a giant blade and slice the monster's head off
Blood spurts everywhere
The monster's eyes look lifeless and cold
The tongue hangs out of its mouth
The soldiers carry the severed head away
Five kids, you see them wipe off drops of red
Five kids, bloodied and the monster's dead
They look at you with horror in their eyes
This is what happens when your childhood dies!
Suddenly, you realize that you're covered head to toe in monster blood
Her neck, his eyes, and all of you
Recess made your skin a different hue.
