Darkest words plague my mind
I shouldn't let them in but find
Comfort in this world of mine
Where monsters live and play

Don't be frightened by my guise
Or the sweetest smile I hide
If harm to you I wish for now
I'll wait until the sun goes down

You see I'm very real you know
Mummy said no monsters no
But you and I know that's a lie
For here I am by your side

Every trick in the book
Works for me when I look
For easy prey just like you
Who'll satisfies my dark nook

Yes yes I'm evil to the bone
But come on now I followed you home
At least you can do is play my game
Wait and see you'll go insane

Oh no don't start to cry
I'll take my time and I won't pry
Into the world that you thought safe
Of good manners and well behaved

One last thing before I start
Best say a prayer and protect your heart
I am that monster you think you see
Now my child you belong to me
