Nonsensical Menageries - Fat Boy Werewolf Lyrics

In the moonlight, my reflection's clear
I see a wolf and shed a single tear
I'm no Jacob, I'm not lean or mean
Just a fluffy creature, caught in between
I try to run, but I trip and fall
Not a sleek beast, just round and tall
They howl with grace, I stumble behind
In this werewolf pack, I'm the odd kind
I watch the movies, see the sleek and sly
But my own reflection makes me want to cry
Not a Michael J. Fox, can't Teen Wolf my way
Just a chubby lupine, night and day
Under the full moon, I feel the change
But instead of fierce, I just feel strange
They see the fur, but they don't see the soul
Trying to fit in, but I lose control
I am a fat boy werewolf, living in this skin
Howling at the mirror, where do I begin?
Not a classic monster, just a heavy heart
In a world of twilight, I'm falling apart
Buffy wouldn't chase me, I'm too slow to catch
No Van Helsing's coming, I'm not a big match
Just a misfit creature, in a midnight snack
Hoping for acceptance, but I can't turn back
My fur is matted, not sleek and neat
With every full moon, I feel defeat
I watch the pack, they move so fast
While I lag behind, always last
In the world of monsters, I'm a gentle soul
Trying to find a place where I can be whole
Not a Hugh Jackman, can't X-Men my way
Just a rotund lupine, night and day
They see the claws, but they don't feel the weight
Carrying the burden of a monstrous fate
In the moonlit night, I roam alone
Searching for a place that I can call home
I am a fat boy werewolf, living in this skin
Howling at the mirror, where do I begin?
Not a classic monster, just a heavy heart
In a world of twilight, I'm falling apart
In the dark of night, I see their eyes
Judgmental stares cut through my disguise
I'm not the big bad wolf they make me out to be
Just a lonely heart, craving to be free
I hear the whispers, the laughs in the dark
But they don't know the pain that leaves a mark
Each full moon rises, brings a fresh start
But I'm stuck in shadows, tearing me apart
I watch the world from the forest's edge
Dreaming of a life, standing on the ledge
Not a Scott McCall, can't lead the pack
Just a weary wolf, always looking back
In a world of hunters, I'm the prey
Trying to find my way, night and day
They see the beast, but not the man inside
In this furry skin, there's nowhere to hide
I am a fat boy werewolf, living in this skin
Howling at the mirror, where do I begin?
Not a classic monster, just a heavy heart
In a world of twilight, I'm falling apart
I dream of a world where I fit right in
Where size doesn't matter, where I can begin
To be the wolf I feel inside
Without the shame, without the hide
A world where monsters come in all shapes
Where every howl is one that escapes
From a heart that's true, from a soul that's real
A place where I can finally heal
