My daddy told me not to worry about the big bad beasts who were banging in my closet
"You gotta hold your chin honey gotta show em who the boss is"
Maybe I was hesitant about what he meant, cause I only had a knickel in my piggy bank
I needed strength but to be frank he said "don't ya wanna know where the monsters go?"
Oh Oh oh
Don't ya wanna know where they go?
Don't ya wanna know where they go?
Don't ya wanna know where they go?
Don't ya wanna know where the monsters go?
Cuddle up maybe small but tough
No no monster's ever coming near my stuff
They need a permit pass, sure they can take my trash
But there's a no creep zone in my bed
Months passed and I lost my stash of sweet snacks, never crumbs in bed
Fingers pointed at me but I told me dad it was the monsters under my bed and he said
Oh Oh oh
Don't ya wanna know where they go?
Don't ya wanna know where they go?
Don't ya wanna know, Don't ya wanna know?
Don't ya wanna know where the monsters go?
So I creeped underneath bedsheets, past all my missing socks
Past all the things that you forgot
Pitch black, stuck to gum and tick tacks
And then I turn my back sprung to the attack with a creepy crawly eating a snack
Oh no
"Don't ya wanna know where we go?"
Oh no
"Don't ya wanna know where we go?"
"My dear baby don't you fear, we're only creepy crawlies with the tendency to disappear
No don't you fear my dear, I'm only being sincere
With some time baby you will find no better company than mine
So take my hand onto the land you'll never ever wanna leave my friend"
"Oh
Don't ya wanna know where we go?
Don't ya wanna know where we go?
Don't ya wanna know, Don't ya wanna know?
Don't ya wanna know where we go?
Where we go?
Where we go?
Where we go?
Don't ya wanna know where the monsters go?"
