LYRICS
Pig pig
Once upon a time there was a nasty little piggy filled with pride and greed
Once upon a time there was an eager little PIG, your typical disease
You see this little pig is slowly becoming my own worst enemy
You see this eager pig she's a blood blood blood sucking part of me

Everywhere I go you go along with me
She said anything you get is all because of me
I said, everything I do you do along with me
She said, no matter where you run you cannot hide from me

She's got a hold on me
Maybe she is just what they want me to be
Even in these chains you can't stop me
Even in these chains you can't stop me

Pig Pig won't you let me in
pig pig won't you let me in
pig pig I've been everywhere that you been
Now I got nothing to lose and everything to win

Pig Pig won't you let me in
pig pig won't you let me in
pig pig I'm already under your skin
‘cause I'm the big bad wolf now let the games begin

Pig Pig
You see I am the wolf and this dirty little piggy lives inside of me
You see every now and then I forget which one I want and which one that I need
I have come to realize that both of them have become a necessity
I have come to realize that I become which animal I choose to feed

Anything I say you lie along with me
She said, every song you sing is all because of me
I said, anytime I cry you always laugh at me
She said, no matter what you do you will belong to me

She's got a hold on me
Maybe she is just what they want me to be
Even in these chains you can't stop me
Even in these chains you can't stop me

Pig Pig won't you let me in
pig pig won't you let me in
pig pig I've been everywhere that you been
Now I got nothing to lose and everything to win
Pig Pig won't you let me in
pig pig won't you let me in
pig pig I'm already under your skin
‘cause I'm the big bad wolf now let the games begin

Oh man
All these voices
I just can’t
Get the f**k out of my head

I can’t
I can’t
I can’t

Even with these chains you can’t stop me (3)
Even in these chains you won’t break me
Even in these chains you won’t stop me
Even in these chains you won’t break me
Even in these chains you won’t take me
Even in these chains you won’t hold me

Pig
Pig
Pig Pig
Stay the f**k stay the f**k stay the f**k out of my head

She's got a hold on me
Maybe she is just what they want me to be
Even in these chains you can't stop me
Even in these chains you can't stop me

Pig Pig won't you let me in
pig pig won't you let me in
pig pig I've been everywhere that you been
Now I got nothing to lose and everything to win
Pig Pig won't you let me in
pig pig won't you let me in
pig pig I'm already under your skin
‘cause I'm the big bad wolf now let the games begin

“ Even in these chains you can’t stop me “ - a goddess 😍❤️

[eveningmistonwater]

when i was little, all i wanted to do was sing as clear and as high and as pretty as Ariel, Cinderella, Anastasia....etc. Now that Im wiser and angrier ...all i want to do is scream like princesses, long live Queen Maria.

[patrickowens]

Maria is so unique. Her vocals fascinate me, she does so many different things with her voice that I can't keep track. It's not just the variety of styles, but the emotions she conveys as well. I find it hard to explain.

[markmusgrave]

I listened to classic rock when I was a kid, rap as a teen, country for a while as a young adult, pop throughout, and lots of praise and gospel these days… and if I could only listen to one song from now on, this would be it. Nothing has me feeling more like I can run through walls.

[averychaco]

*THIS SONG LIVE WAS SO POWERFUL*
I screamed, I cried, I howled and headbanged
When she and her dancers dropped to their knees when she screamed "PIG PIG" and whipped their hair around I felt like that moment should be eternal

[limabravo]

Every once in a while someone comes along with a voice that sounds like the hammer of God coming down, and we are privileged to hear them. Mariah Brink has a voice like that

[happygoluckyh.t.d.life.]

I just met metal at the age of 53, and I think I got here just in time. This song fits where I find myself at this point in my journey, speaks to me on many levels. Well done Miss and thanks so much for sharing.

[Intro]
Even in these chains, you can't stop me
Even in these chains, you can't stop me
Even in these chains, you can't stop me
Even in these chains, you can't stop me

[Verse 1]
Once upon a time
There was a nasty little piggy filled with pride and greed
Once upon a time
There was an eager little pig, your typical disease
You see, this little pig is slowly becoming my own worst enemy
You see, this eager pig
She's a blood, blood, blood-sucking part of me

[Refrain]
Everywhere I go, you go along with me (she said)
Anything you get is all because of me (I said)
Everything I do, you do along with me (she said)
No matter where you run, you cannot hide from me

[Refrain]
She's gotta hold on me
Maybe she is just what they want me to be

[Pre-Chorus]
Even in these chains, you can't stop me
Even in these chains, you can't stop me

[Chorus]
Pig, pig, won't you let me in?
Pig, pig, won't you let me in?
Pig, pig, I've been everywhere that you been
(Oh, I've got nothing to lose and everything to win)
Pig, pig, won't you let me in?
Pig, pig, won't you let me in?
Pig, pig, I'm already under your skin
(Cause I'm the big bad wolf, now let the games begin)

[Verse 2]
You see, I am the wolf
And this dirty, little piggy lives inside of me
You see every now and then
I forget which one I want and which one that I need
I have come to realize
That both of them have become a necessity
And I have come to realize
That I become which animal I choose to feed

Anything I say you lie along with me (she said)
Every song you sing is all because of me (I said)
Anytime I cry you always laugh at me (she said)
No matter what you do you will belong to me

[Refrain]
She's gotta hold on me
Maybe she is just what they want me to be

[Pre-Chorus]
Even in these chains, you can't stop me
Even in these chains, you can't stop me

[Chours]
Pig, pig, won't you let me in?
Pig, pig, won't you let me in?
Pig, pig, I've been everywhere that you been
(Oh, I've got nothing to lose and everything to win)
Pig, pig, won't you let me in?
Pig, pig, won't you let me in?
Pig, pig, I'm already under your skin
(Cause I'm the big bad wolf, now let the games begin)

[Bridge]
Oh man, all these voices, I just can't
Get the fuck out of my head
I can't, I can't, I can't

Even with these chains, you can't stop me
Even with these chains, you can't stop me
Even with these chains, you can't stop me
Even in these chains, you won't break me
Even in these chains, you won't stop me
Even in these chains, you won't break me
Even in these chains, you won't take me
Even in these chains, you won't hold me

[Verse 3]
Pig
Pig
Pig, pig
Stay the fuck, stay the fuck, stay the fuck outta my head

[Refrain]
She's gotta hold on me
Maybe she is just what they want me to be

[Pre-Chorus]
Even in these chains, you can't stop me
Even in these chains, you can't stop me

[Chours]
Pig, pig, won't you let me in?
Pig, pig, won't you let me in?
Pig, pig, I've been everywhere that you been
(Oh, I've got nothing to lose and everything to win)
Pig, pig, won't you let me in?
Pig, pig, won't you let me in?
Pig, pig, I'm already under your skin
(Cause I'm the big bad wolf, now let the games begin)

Cause I'm the big bad wolf, now let the games begin
(Cause I'm the big bad wolf, now let the games begin)

[jolenacadwallader]

I did an abstract art project based on this song and when my teacher listened to the song and watched the video, she couldn't help but point out how much of a powerhouse Maria is.

[ghxst_cat]

I saw them in concert the other day… the power and control she held over the crowd was unreal. Truly a queen.

[MirandaPenningtonSongs]

This song is EVERYTHING. It's pretty philosophical if you think about it. She's really talking about the ego and its mind games.

[eldinthings]

"Lions and tigers may be powerful...but a wolf does not dance at the circus."

[melixer]

I clean my house aggressively to this song.

[Dark_Phoenix_SA]

This song changed my view on Metal. I was first "WTF am I watching and listening to?" Now I cant get enough of them. She is truly talented

[jillianbarbaccio]

i feel like no matter what sexuality you are, maria brink is hot

[mariavassallo]

She is an absolute goddess when it comes to heavy metal.

[Bobcatrd]

Anyone else think about the behind the scenes stuff during videos like this? “Ok we’re gonna hit the strobe light, just wiggle around and do jazz hands at the camera.”

[natashamariesimpson]

I relate to this song. These lyrics. I grew up with very strict religious grandparents. My grandfather who was a preacher and suffered from ptsd from fighting for this country terrorized the family most of my life. Screaming, cursing, pulling guns on family members and threatening the life of them. I was the smallest child in the home restricted from being with friends outside the home and having a normal teenage life. Papa wont you let me out echoed in my soul for many years living under his roof. Thank you for this song!

[kylefoster]

how to summarize this band...its like Korn and Lady Gaga had a baby together and this is the result. fucking great stuff here!

[shelbymccallister]

This is one of the only rock songs that get my adrenaline to 1000%. She is so TALENTED!
