MONSTERS!
MONSTERS!
creep and crawl
see that
shadow
on the wall?
MONSTERS!
MONSTERS!
‘neath the bed
hear them
feel them
live or dead
MONSTERS!
MONSTERS!
shift and lurk
Was my
brother?
Oh, that jerk!
MONSTERS!
MONSTERS!
eat my brains
Take my
brother
no remains
MONSTERS!
MONSTERS!
hush be still
Let me
think of
ways to kill
BROTHER!
BROTHER!
I have plan
You can
go out
act like MAN!
BROTHER!
BROTHER!
they might scrub
go and
see if
they’re in tub
BROTHER!
BROTHER!
I hear noise
go and
see if
they like boys
BROTHER!
BROTHER!
I heard bump
look at
you so
nice and plump
BROTHER!
BROTHER!
you might hide
they would
eat you
grilled or fried
BROTHER!
BROTHER!
you turned red
got up
hit me
on the head
MOMMY!
MOMMY!
Wake! Assist!
Brother
proves that
they exist
MONSTERS!
MONSTERS!
creep and crawl
see that
shadow
on the wall?

Walt~
Sounded a little more like Abbott and Costello to me !

Got the *giggles*, I do !
