lying awake
i see the sun come
i'm not alone
there is a monster in my bed
and gently pets my head
i'm still awake
i feel the night come
now there's a girl
and all i think is: run!
but i can't move and here she comes
under my pillow there is a monster
under my pillow there is a girl
under my pillow there is a mobster
and they play a cryptic game
i feel asleep
and in my dream i
saw a man
with a pillow in his hands
and this is where the story ends
under my pillow there was a monster
under my pillow there was a girl
and if the mobster hadn't stolen the pillow
they would still be there and play
