Monsters In the Bathroom
I was just a kid
I never will forget
I woke up late one night
I lay there in my bed
My family was aslumberin
No one was around
I was almost back asleep
when I thought I heard a sound
A creak upon the staircase
I could plainly hear
Something there was moving
It filled my heart with fear
It couldn't be my mother
It couldn't be my dad
My brother John slept next to me
He's the only one I had
And I thought... Hm...
There's monsters in the bathroom
Monsters in the hall
Monsters in the closet
Hanging from the wall
I thought 'They'll come and eat my parents, and I'll be all alone
Then they'll nibble on my toes, right down to the bone.'
I pulled the covers o'er my head
My knees began to shake
My mind said just go back to sleep
but my body stayed awake.
I thought of all the monsters in movies that I'd seen
They'd all been pretty scary
they'd all been pretty mean.
I tried to calm myself down
There's nothing there, I said
There's no monsters on the stairs, they're only in your head
There's nothing to be afraid of
There's nothing there at all
And I had just convinced myself when I heard it in the hall.
Monsters in the bathroom
Monsters in the hall
Monsters in the closet
Hanging from the wall
I thought, they'll come and eat my parents
I'll be all alone
then they'll nibble on my toes
right down to the bone

I could hear the monster breathing
I could hear the monster sigh
The monster stood right over me
I kissed the world goodbye
and then the lights came on and I screamed out
I'M DEAD!
But
The monster was my mother
And this is what she said
I was having a midnight snack when I thought I heard you call
I came up the stairs,
I tiptoed down the hall.
When I was just a kid like you
I'd wake up in the night
Hear a creak, begin to freak til my dad turned on the lights
I thought there were monsters in the bathroom
monsters in the hall
monsters in the closet
hanging from the wall
I thought they'd come and eat my parents, and I'd be all alone
then they'd nibble on my toes
right down to the bones.
And I said, phew Mom... pft.
That's just plain stupid
I never get afraid
You must have been a chicken, and not been very brave
Don't you worry about me
I'll always be alright
but my brother John
he hates the dark, so please leave on the light.
He says
there's monsters in the bathroom
monsters in the hall
monsters in the closet
hanging from the wall
he says they'll come and eat our parents
and we'll be all alone
then they'll nibble on our toes
right
down
to
the bone.
