Martin Kelly - I Wanna Be A Monster From Halloween Lyrics

Starting tomorrow I won't ask to be invited
If there's a neck I won't try to bite it
But if there's a mirror I'll try to be seen
For I'm not a vampire and this is not Halloween

Starting tomorrow I won't take off all my clothes
And run through the forest when the full moon glows
I won't need to howl just to be seen
For I'm not a werewolf and this is not Halloween

When I was growing up I was told I could do anything
Shoot for the stars and see what the future will bring
But I also grew up watching lots of horror movies
And now people ask me what do I think I am doing

My doctor says I should just be myself
I don't need to try and be something else
But my case is different from most she has seen
Cause I wanna be a monster from Halloween

Starting tomorrow I won't hunt archaeologists
And grizzled adventurers who've opened the wrong crypts
I'll take off the bindings I've wrapped around me
For I'm not the mummy and this is not Halloween

Starting tomorrow I won't rise from a grave
And chase around people asking for brains
I'll change into clothes that aren't torn and not clean
For I'm not a zombie and this is not Halloween

When I was growing up I was told I could do anything
Shoot for the stars and see what the future will bring
But I also grew up watching lots of horror movies
And now people ask me what do I think I am doing

My doctor says I should just be myself
I don't need to try and be something else
But my case is different from most she has seen
Cause I wanna be a monster from Halloween

My doctor gave me a long list of affirmations
That I should say when I start to create a spooky situation
When things are normal I don't need to make them supernatural
I need to stick to what's real and realize what's actual

When I was growing up I was told I could do anything
Shoot for the stars and see what the future will bring
But I also grew up watching lots of horror movies
And now people ask me what do I think I am doing?

My doctor says I should just be myself
I don't need to try and be something else
But my case is different from most she has seen
Cause I wanna be a monster from Halloween

I'm not a monster from Halloween
Why can't I be a monster from Halloween?
Why can't I be a monster from Halloween?
I'm gonna be a monster from Halloween!
Awooooooo
