Well don't be afraid of the dark
It's all alright
Nah there ain't no monsters
Out tonight
Oh, but if you say it out loud
They might come to life
So don't be afraid the dark
Just take your hand in mine
Well don't be afraid of the dark
It's all alright
Oh, if you bear your palms
The beast won't bite
Oh, but when suspicion clouds
Then voodoo strikes
So don't be afraid the dark
Just take your hand in mine
I can feel a great release
Of all them secrets that you keep
You've been talking in your sleep
The dark and mean ones way down deep
You're tasty little treat
But that honey ain't so sweet
Now it's coming clear to see
That you're a monster just like me
Oh, you're a monster just like me
Yeah, you're a monster just like me
You're a monster just like me
All them suitors in the street
Yeah, they're smooth and slick and sweet
But if you take their hand you'll see
That they'll just chop you up to eat
You've declared your apathy
So that may be just what you need
Oh you're tough and tight and mean
Oh, you're a monster just like me
Oh, you're a monster just like me
Oh, you're a monster just like me
You're a monster just like me
