about

An upbeat skiffle-style song about fear and paranoia

lyrics

The other day I saw a big fat hairy monster
With a big fat scary head
And now I'm scared
That that mean old monster wants to see me dead
The other day I saw a big fat scary monster
With big fat hairy legs
And now I'm scared
That that mean old monster wants to see me dead

Stay inside all day
No, I don't want to go out
I'm not going out today
There's people out there who've got guns and knives
We need to guard our lives
I saw the papers yesterday
Something about some psycho killer dragging little kids away

The other day I saw a big fat scary monster
With a big fat hairy head
And now I'm scared
That that mean old monster wants to see me dead

Keep looking around
And keep those ears pricked for the least suspicious sound
There's people out there who might beat me, rob me, defraud me or eat me
I watched the news the other day
Looks like the whole world's full of terrorists trying to blow us all away

A lot of things I could do
But I might mess up or just not be able to
There's people out there who'd do better than me
Plus way too much bureaucracy
I heard a bunch of people say about how the government's trying to take all of our hard-earned rights away
