I used to be afraid of monsters

Lurking ‘neath my bed

But, no one ever told me

‘Bout the monsters in my head

 

Night lights and my teddy bears

All kept those beasts at bay

But now they torture viciously

Throughout the night and day 

 

I used to think those frightful fiends

Would always skulk behind

But now I know these scary things

Are living in my mind

 

The monsters hiding ‘neath my bed

Had fangs and purple warts

The ones that now invade my brain

Are crueler and much worse

 

I used to be afraid of monsters

Lurking ‘neath my bed

But, no one ever told me

‘Bout the monsters in my head!
