Eddie Mugavero: music
THE SCARIEST MONSTER OF ALL
(Written by Eddie Mugavero-Sung by Cathryn Craig)
Being Italian, a heated discussion between my parents sometimes sounded like an argument; and being the sensitive little brat that I was, it used to scare the hell out of me. Wrote this from the perspective of a child. The piano was beautifully played by Jay Vern. Jay is an amazing musician & producer. Many of our 'piano vocals', we cut live..Jay playing and Cathryn singing..one take. It got no better.
THE SCARIEST MONSTER OF ALL
FOR THE SAKE OF THE KIDS LETS STOP FIGHTING
THEY REALLY DON’T CARE WHO WINS
THEY’RE LYING AWAKE WITH THE COVERS PULLED TIGHT
HOPING THAT SOMEONE GIVES IN
IN THEIR WORLD THERE’S NOTHING MORE FRIGHTENING
AND THEY REALLY DON’T CARE WHO’S RIGHT
THEY’RE CRYING AND PRAYING ‘CAUSE THEY’RE SO AFRAID
OF WHAT MAY BE OUT THERE TONIGHT
BUT IT’S OK KIDS
THE MONSTER YOU’RE HEARING OUTSIDE OF YOUR ROOM ISN’T THERE
IT’S OK KIDS
MOMMY LOVES DADDY AND NEVER FORGET
WE BOTH LOVE YOU TOO DON’T BE SCARED
IT’S OK
FOR THE SAKE OF THE KIDS LET’S REMEMBER
OUR LOVE IS THEIR LIGHT IN THE HALL
AND THE SHADOW OF DOUBT THAT WE CAST IN THE NIGHT
IS THE SCARIEST MONSTER OF ALL..
