Some kids just love
|
To play with dolls
|
Or put on funny hats
|
And some make pets
|
Of birds and fish
|
And dogs and
|
Alley cats
|
That's not the way
|
I like to play
|
I'm tired of all these
|
I need a very
|
Special friend
|
Won't you
|
Help me please?
|
|
I want a monster
|
To be my playmate
|
I want a monster
|
To be my friend
|
I want to get
|
For my own pet
|
A real live monster
|
Who's not pretend
|
|
Oh, I want a monster
|
To be my playmate
|
We'd soon become
|
Good friends because
|
Although they're hairy
|
And sometimes scary
|
They have such soft
|
And furry paws
|
|
If I make friends with
|
A friendly monster
|
I'd be the best that a
|
friend could be
|
I'd let him do
|
Whatever he wants to
|
And he'd always
|
Belong to me
|
|
So, if you know a
|
Nice old monster
|
If you've a monster
|
To recommend
|
Ooh, golly gee
|
Please send him to me
|
I just can't wait
|
Until then!
|
|
I want a monster
|
A real live monster
|
I want a monster
|
Send me my monster
|
I want a monster
|
A real live monster
|
I want a monster
|
Send my monster
|
I want a monster
|
A real live monster
|
I want a monster
|
To be my friend!
|
|
Oh please
|
Send my monster
|
Does anybody have
|
A monster out there
|
I'll take a
|
Secondhand monster
|
He doesn't have
|
To be new
|
