There's a monster in my house!

There's a Monster in My House

Eric Herman

Verse1

There's a monster in my house. I hear it every night.
It sounds like it has big, sharp claws and nasty fangs that bite.
There's a monster in my house. It makes it hard to sleep.
I hear it growling on and on in a voice so scary and deep …

Chorus

There's a monster in my house,

and it's coming after me.
There's a monster in my house.

There's a monster in my house. I shake and scream with fear.

My Mum and Dad come running in, but suddenly there's nothing to hear.
So they go back to their room, and leave me all alone.
But soon enough that sound is back that chills me to the bone …

ZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!     ZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!

 
Now the time has come to face that monster,  once and for all.
Armed with a high-powered squirt gun, I creep out into the hall.
I listen hard to follow the noise, but soon I'm filled with gloom,
for the monster's sound is coming from within my parents' room!

I slink inside the door and see a big lump on the bed.

I shoot a stream of water and it soaks the monster's head!
The lights go on as the monster wakes, and boy is it ever mad.
I guess I should have realised that the monster's just my Dad.   WOOPS!

 

Chorus  (… then  ZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!! to end of song)
