Be kind to your neighborhood monsters
for they are not as scarry as they seem

if you see one scaddeling
down the lane or paddeling
up the stream
don't screem

for a monster could be somebody's mommy
and their feelings aren't exactly made of wood
so offer one a piece of your salami
be kind to the monsters in your neighborhood

	(hmmmmm hum hmm hmm hum)
	daring and brave
	(la la la and something) monsters
	never misbehave
		  or hardly ever

	loving and loyal
	true to the end
	hairy, but Not scarry monsters
	want to be your friend

for a monster could be somebody's mommy
and their feelings aren't exactly made of wood
so offer one a piece of your salami
be kind to the monsters in you neighborhood

	be kind
	to the monsters
	in your
	neigh-
	bor-
	hood
