Lyrics
On certain mornings my dolls faced the walls
And mommy never asked me why
I was pretty scared as I recall
She?d check to see if I was fine
I?d leave an open crack in the doorway
For a little light to come inside
And hid my head underneath my blankets
To protect me from their deadly bite
Chorus:
Silly things I did when I was young
Silly things I still do now
Little monsters would chase me around
Those silly things still come around
And it doesn?t matter what I do today
They just won?t go away
Even now I find myself out there
As a little girl on the schoolyard
Didn?t play the game of truth or dare
Afraid to pick out the wrong card
Chorus:
Silly things I did when I was young
Silly things I still do now
Little monsters would chase me around
Those silly things still come around
And it doesn?t matter what I do today
They just won?t go away
