Sesame Street Lyrics

Five Monsters In My Family Lyrics

Well, there are five monsters in my family
And we all have a lot of fun
Two furry sisters, scary husband
Fuzzy wife and hairy son (that's me)
Oh five is such a scary number
I'm awfully glad that I've
Five monsters in my family
1, 2, 3, 4, 5

Yes, there are five monsters in my family
Make it six, counting Uncle Fred
And then there's Jerry, and Aunt Mary
Better make it eight instead (that's right)
Oh eight is such a scary number
But still I think it's great
With eight monsters in my family
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

(Family dinners are really great.
We eat the food and then the plate.
Roses are red, violets are blue
So are Mommy and Daddy, too.)

Oh there are eight monsters in my family
Maybe I ought to count again
Because with Grandma and the baby
We have got it up to ten (you bet)
Oh ten is such a scary number
But still I have a yen
For those ten monsters in my family
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11
Eleven?
