Intro

Verse 1

 There's a monster that lives ‘neath your bed, Oh for crying out loud

 it's a futon on the floor, He must be flat as a board

 There's a creature that lurks behind the door

  Intro

Though I've checked there 15 times, When I leave then he arrives Every night

Verse 2

Tell the monster that lives ‘neath your bed

To go somewhere else instead, Or you'll kick him in the head

Tell the creature that lurks behind the door

If he knows what's good he won't come here anymore

 Cause you'll kick in his butt at the count of four

Chorus

Goodnight demon slayer, goodnight

Now its time to close your tired eyes

 There are devils to slay and dragons to ride If they see you coming, hell they better hide

Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight

Intro

Goodnight my little slayer goodnight

Verse 3

Tell the monster that eats children, that you taste bad

And you're sure you'd be the worst that he's ever had

If he eats you, don't fret, just cut him open with an axe

Don't regret it, he deserved it, he's a cad

Verse 4

Tell the harpies that land on your bed post

That at the count of five you'll roast them alive

Tell the devil its time you gave him his due

He should go back to hell, he should shake in his shoes

 Cause the mightiest, scariest, creature is you

Chorus

Verse 5

I won't tell you, there's nothing ‘neath your bed

I won't tell you, that it's all in your head

This world of ours is not as it seems

The monsters are real but not in your dreams

Learn what you can from the beasts you defeat,

 you'll need it for some of the people you meet

Chorus

Outro

Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight

  end on

Goodnight
