In a dark and scary night When everyone's asleep I hold my breath with all my might Careful not to make a peep For I'm afraid if I should make But one little tiny sound A monster will take a wooden stake And nail me to the ground I can see a monster's shadow Monster in my head I can taste a monster's breath A monster in my bed Thunder rumbles down the hallway Footsteps shake the floor I pray the Lord my soul to take As light streams through the door I can see a monster's shadow Monster in my head I can taste a monster's breath A monster in my bed
