A Monster’s Worst Nightmare
There was a dragon in my room
I slew him with a fork and spoon
And cooked it on my brand new grill
My mom and dad couldn’t get their fill
A vampire tried to bite my neck
I turned and said, “Hey, what the heck?”
I grabbed a pencil from my desk
And shoved it deep into his chest
While walking on a moonlit night
A werewolf tried to pick a fight
But I showed him my silver knife
And he went running for his life
A haunted house is where I play
And when a ghost gets in my way
One curse and three Latin chants
Scares him right out of his pants
Frankenstein thinks he’s so vicious
And I’ll admit he is pernicious
But he’s so easy to short-circuit
If you know just how to work it
The loch-Ness monster got in my tub
When it was time to rub-dub-dub
I lured him like all other fishes
My family said he was delicious
I’m not a guy who likes to boast
But mess with me and you are toast
Warning monsters: If you see me
I suggest you let me be
