I Want a Monster to Be My Friend - En Vogue

Some kids just love

To play with dolls

Or put on funny hats

And some make pets

Of birds and fish

And dogs and

Alley cats

That’s not the way

I like to play

I’m tired of all these

I need a very

Special friend

Won’t you

Help me please?

I want a monster

To be my playmate

I want a monster

To be my friend

I want to get

For my own pet

A real live monster

Who’s not pretend

Oh, I want a monster

To be my playmate

We’d soon become

Good friends because

Although they’re hairy

And sometimes scary

They have such soft

And furry paws

If I make friends with

A friendly monster

I’d be the best that a friend could be

I’d let him do Whatever he wants to And he’d always

Belong to me So, if you know a Nice old monster

If you’ve a monster

To recommend

Ooh, golly gee

Please send him to me

I just can’t wait

Until then!

I want a monster

A real live monster

I want a monster

Send me my monster

I want a monster

A real live monster

I want a monster

Send my monster

I want a monster

A real live monster

I want a monster

To be my friend!

Oh please

Send my monster

Does anybody have

A monster out there

I’ll take a Secondhand monster

He doesn’t have

To be new
