I've got green teeth
and bristly hair.
I'm a scary monster and I don't care!
I've got three eyes
and my ears are square.
I'm a scary monster and I don't care
if my nasty smell
pollutes the air!
I'm a scary monster and I don't care!
Cos I'm really mean
and I don't play fair.
I'm a scary monster and I don't care!
I roar and growl
and I won't share.
I'm a scary monster and I don't care
if you won't be my friend -
yes, you - over there.
Wait - you're ... an even bigger, scarier monster?
Well
now
I
care!
