Lyrics

MONSTERS

Daddy take a look beneath my bed
I bet there's something in here
If you leave for any length of time
I know they will appear

I can see them moving through the bedspread
Please help me take these monsters from my head
Away, chasing the monsters
Chasing the monsters away

I can't believe I let it get this far
The walls are closing in here
Daddy take a look inside my head
I feel them feed on my fear

I can see them moving through the bedspread
Please help me take these monsters from my head
Away, chasing the monsters
Chasing the monsters away

Music & Lyrics by Steve Rosas © 2003

This has an 80's and 90's vibe to it I like. It kind of reminds me of 38 special with more attitude and more punk rock or something. I really like the arrangement and musicianship. The band is definitely tight. Dig the guitar solo for sure!

Great tune. Nice interesting changes in the middle. Great lyrics. Good hook. Solid tune. I could see this being used in film and TV and would encourage this artist to submit to those kinds of listings. The song pretty much has everything a good song needs.

This is a top notch quality recording........professional studio sound for sure. Great hook, instrumentation, vocals, etc. I'm really impressed overall with everything. This is an artist/band that is taking their music career seriously and it's refreshing to hear a song in the "punk" category that sounds so tight.

EXCELLENT LOve the riffs! VERY well written and arranged

Good positive energy in song.

Very nice and catchy tune.
