Monsters
 
If you're a monster and you know it, wave your arms.
If you're a monster and you know it, wave your arms.
If you're a monster and you know it, then your arms will surely show it.
If you're a monster and you know it, wave your arms.
(Children can suggest other verses--show your claws, gnash your teeth, stomp your feet.)

    The Monsters Are So Loud
(Tune: "When Johnny Comes Marching Home")
The monsters stomp around the house,
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The monsters stomp around the house,
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The monsters stomp around the house,
Their brothers and sisters send them out
And they stomp some more outside around the house.
The monsters yell around the house,
Eeeeeeh! Eeeeeeh!
The monsters yell around the house,
Eeeeeeh! Eeeeeeh!
The monsters yell around the house,
Their brothers and sisters send them out
And they yell some more outside around the house.

Five Little Monsters
Five little monsters by the light of the moon
Stirring pudding with a wooden pudding spoon.
The first one says, "It mustn't be runny."
The second one says, "That would make it taste funny."
The third one says, "It mustn't be lumpy."
The fourth one says, "That would make me grumpy."
The fifth one smiles, hums a little tune,
And licks all the drippings from the wooden pudding spoon!
