The Monster


There's a monster in my closet It won't leave me alone Every time it growls I just toss it a bone It chewed all my sneakers Ate all my socks Took the coats right off the hangers Man I wish I could say this rocks I asked it to leave And it just said "No" I started to cry It said "fine I'll go" Now the monster is gone But there's no smile on my face It wouldn't be so bad If his brother hadn't taken his place

We have all had our own monster in the closet and it was something that childhood wouldn't be fullfilled without! I hope you enoy it and like what I did! Thank you much!
