Well, I ran to the doctor in the middle of the night
I said, "Doctor Doctor, got a terrible fright
There's a slobbery monster when I turn out the light
He said, "Mess up your hair and it'll be all right."

So I messed up my hair and I went back to bed
There was the slobbery monster with a too-big head.

So, I ran to the doctor in the middle of the night
I said, "Doctor Doctor, got a terrible fright
There's a slobbery monster when I turn out the light
He said, "Wiggle your ears and it'll be all right."

So I wiggled my ears,
I messed up my hair and I went back to bed
There was the slobbery monster with a too-big head.

So, I ran to the doctor in the middle of the night
I said, "Doctor Doctor, got a terrible fright
There's a slobbery monster when I turn out the light
He said, "Do the twist and it'll be all right."

So I did the twist
[NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA]
and I wiggled my ears,
I messed up my hair and I went back to bed
There was the slobbery monster with a too-big head.

So, I ran to the doctor in the middle of the night
I said, "Doctor Doctor, got a terrible fright
There's a slobbery monster when I turn out the light
He said, "Do the Charleston and it'll be all right."

So I did the Charleston
[FIVE FOOT TWO EYES OF TWO, EYES OF BLUE,
OH WHAT THOSE FIVE FOOT COULD DO]
So I did the twist
[NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA]
and I wiggled my ears,
I messed up my hair and I went back to bed
There was the slobbery monster with a too-big head.

So, I ran to the doctor in the middle of the night
I said, "Doctor Doctor, got a terrible fright
There's a slobbery monster when I turn out the light
He said, "Touch your toes and it'll be all right."

So I touched my toes
I did the Charleston
[FIVE FOOT TWO EYES OF TWO, EYES OF BLUE,
OH WHAT THOSE FIVE FOOT COULD DO]
So I did the twist
[NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA]
and I wiggled my ears,
I messed up my hair and I went back to bed
There was the slobbery monster with a too-big head.

So, I ran to my mamma in the middle of the night
I said, "Mamma Mamma, got a terrible fright
There's a slobbery monster when I turn out the light

So my mamma took the mirror away from my bed
Put it in the closet and closed the door
And the slobbery monster was all gone.
Sweet dreams.
