Stay in bed
But don't close your eyes
You know that we love you
No, really, we love you
So keep it together
Take our advice
Just stay in bed
And don't close your eyes
Don't go downstairs
Don't call our names
Though we'll always be here
Just not over there
There's so much between us
No, really, between us
Just stay in bed
Don't go downstairs
The monster in the closet’s getting hungry
He hopes that you left something on your plate
And the monster underneath your bed
Knows good things come to those who lie in wait
The monster in the TV room is restless
He can not seem to find the good remote
And the monster in the kitchen’s
Got a little bit of someone in his throat
So don’t go down, down, down, down, down, down, down
The monster in the basement gets so whiny
He always seems to get his feelings hurt
But the monster in the dining room
Is hoping for a really good dessert
The Monster in the bathroom brings you water
But that’s the older monster trick in sight
‘Cause the monster in the hallway knows
That you could never hold it in all night
And he waits around for just a little taste
You can hear his stomach rumbling from the hiding place
And we love you more than words could every say
And we love you even more and more each day
And we’d love to see you try to heed the warning
With a love that will refill here if you’re still here in the morning
And we love you like you’ll always be around
And we’ll love you if you never make a sound
And don’t go down, down, down
Don’t go down, down, down
The monster in the toaster’s kind of harmless
There’s not a lot of damage he can do
But the monster in the vacuum sucks
The thing that makes you special out of you
The monster on the front lawn’s throwing pebbles
He wants you to come down and let him in
And the monster in the pantry
Likes the tender bits with extra crispy skin
And he waits around for something extra sweet
Listening for the pitter-pat of tiny little feet
And we love you more than words could every say
And we love you even more and more each day
And we love you more than Hodon loved Odona
With a love that can’t prepare you but I swear to you we wanna
‘Cause we love you like you’ll always be around
And we love that you’re the smartest kid in town
And won’t go down, down, down
Won’t go down, down, down
We remember Tommy
Do you remember Tommy
Listening to Mommy would have helped Tom through
We didn’t want the monsters
But please don’t taunt the monster
We can’t outrun the monsters but we’ll out run you
Still we love you more than words could every say
And we’d love to have you here another day
And we’ll love you ‘til the moment that they swallow
Like we loved the one before you and we’ll love the one to follow
Yes we love you like you’ll always be around
And we’ll love you ‘til another you is found
So don’t go down, down, down
Don’t go down, down, down
I'm so glad you posted this!! This if my absolute favorite by them

So. Where's the other song? It isn't nice to tease, you know. Bad things happen to people who tease.
So you were backed by an orchestra on this song. They didn't play, but they were in back of you.
