"Monsters" lyrics

"Monsters"

He's got scary eyes and gritted teeth
And he's waiting there just underneath
Your blue bunk bed while you sleep
And he's in your head, not just your dreams
And I know he feels so real to you
But if I could tell you the truth
I'd say that he's not worth your time
He's just in your mind

Someday, there'll be monsters
Someday, there'll be problems
Right now, count your blessings and your lucky stars
And be right where you are
'Cause you got all this time to breathe
Till you grow up to be me

You've got skinny legs and a heart that beats
Sunny skies far as you can see
But you make clouds that bring the rain
You're spinning in a hurricane
But it's not your storm, it's not your worry
Slow down, boy, 'cause there's no hurry
Sure as the ticking of time
You'll be old in the blink of an eye

Someday, there'll be monsters
Someday, there'll be problems
Right now, count your blessings and your lucky stars
And be right where you are
'Cause you got all this time to breathe
Till you grow up to be me

You don't see what I see
But right under the tears on your face
Is amazing grace

Someday, there'll be monsters
Someday, there'll be problems
Right now, count your blessings and your lucky stars
And be right where you are
There won't be all this time to breathe
When you grow up to be me
