So Grownup Lyrics

My old monster hideout
Slithering beneath the bed
Cowering in the closet
Sneaking in every dark shadow

My lightswitch
a marker
allowing them to catch me.

On the count of three,
turn it off
and run.

Jump onto the secure bed
or he'll snap up my ankle
and make me a late night snack.

But I'm a man now.
Turn off the light
its safe.
I'm no longer a child....

Well.....
You never know
One.
Two..
.....
Three.

Quick steps
Leaping into the darkness
Onto a mattress filled with safety

Afraid to peek over the edge
To just slowly look down
Beause what if the monster
isn't really there.
