I Want a Monster to Be My Friend En Vogue

Some kids just love to play with dolls
Or put on funny hats
And some make pets of birds and fish
And dogs and alley cats
That's not the way I like to play
I'm tired of all of these
I need a very special friend
Won't you help me, please?

I want a monster to be my playmate
I want a monster to be my friend
I want to get for my own pet
A real live monster Who's not pretend

Oh, I want a monster to be my playmate
We'd soon become good friends because
Although they're hairy and sometimes scary
They have such soft and furry paws

If I make friends with a friendly monster
I'd be the best that a friend could be
I'd let him do whatever he wants to
And he'd always Belong to me

So, if you know a Nice old monster
If you've a monster To recommend
Ooh, golly gee
Please send him to me
I just can't wait until then
