Monsters at the Gate

Hey hey can we go away
Maybe catch some rattlesnakes
Or sing along our favorite song

I sure love your pretty face
Nobody’s gonna take your place
We’ll put our spiders in a jar

You bet you’re the girl for me
I bet I am the man for you
We’ll paint our picket fences blue

We can make a little paper boat
You can help me dig a moat
We’ll keep the monsters at the gate
We’ll keep the monsters at the gate (x8)

We’ll keep the monsters at the gate (x4)
