about

Some guy said, “Careful when you fight a monster not to become one yourself,” or something along those lines. Like many other things that guy said, this was very wise. It is relevant to so very many different aspects of hoo-mohnn nature.

One aspect is our Romantic Fates: such a monstrosity of the spirit often overwhelms the spirits of jilted lovers. Most anyone will play that fool at least once in a life, and the other side, too; they’ll be the “monsteree” in that opposite situation. When you have the privilege of playing the latter fool, this is your song to get that pesky other one off your scent.

So go on then, sing and dance your ass away, whichever side you’re on! Wuddin meant to be! Go and get your broken heart together and find someone else.

lyrics

You feel bad about yourself.
You feel sad about yourself.
You feel bad and mad and sad about yourself.

So why don’t you go chase after a monster!?
(What’ll I do?)
And when you get your imposter, like a hungry velociraptor,

Bring me his head on a birthday cake.
Serve it up with a monster blood milkshake.
Bring me his head on a birthday cake
Serve it up with a monster misery milkshake.

Today, I will trim my whiskers
On my nose and my ears
With a regular pair of scissors.

Henry and I,
We will toast to the sky
To sadness and her twin sister.

Because the heart can forgive a flagrant foul once or twice.
Honey, thrice does not make a fragrant flower,
Only sour wasted heart ache.

So why don’t you go chase after a monster!?
(What’ll I do?)
And when you get your imposter, like hungry velociraptor,
Bring me his head on a birthday cake
Serve it up with a monster blood milkshake.

Come get this monster, baby.
Through my tonsils poke a hole.
Get down like Patrick Swayze.
Through my tushy push a pole.
Make my dead ass eat a caramel apple.
You’re in total control.
High-five my eyeballs in front of your best friend
To their total chagrin.

Because the heart can forgive a flagrant foul once or twice.
Honey, thrice does not make a fragrant flower,
Only sour wasted heart ache…

So why don’t you go chase after a monster?!
And when you get your imposter, like a hungry velociraptor,
Bring me his head on a birthday cake.
