The Monster Comes At Night
We're fighting a great battle
No one knows how long for
We've lost a lot already
We're gonna lose lots more
Washing hands, and distance
Help when you not home
But, you must beware the monster
When your'e by yourself, alone
It watches in the daytime
It just teases in the light
But, watch out in the darkness
The monster comes at night
It attacks you when you're sleeping
By blocking off your air
It attacks just like a ninja
You cough, and bam...it's there
You can't find a position
On your left side or your right
You're senses are alerted
The monster comes at night
You walk around dead tired
Sleep in pockets you can grasp
Asleep, easily waking
One cough leads to a gasp
No one there to help you
Your'e stuck home all alone
Watching reruns on the telly
Playing card games on the phone
Like a good old elm street nightmare
your eyes don't close too tight
You know, you may not wake up
Because The monster comes at night
Be careful when you're sleeping
Sleep leaning or upright
For you may not see tomorrow
Because the monster comes at night.
