[Verse 1]
There's monster under every bed
And a wooden spoon for every lie
Though an honest word is seldom said
[Refrain]
In a big yellow house
On a mountainside
[Verse 2]
There's a woman left alone too much
And a man who never learned to cry
Oh, and love has never been enough
[Refrain]
In a big yellow house
On a mountainside
In a big yellow house
On a mountainside
[Chorus]
And it's true that you grow up a little faster
In a partially unnatural disaster
In a big yellow house
On a mountainside
[Verse 3]
Therе's a visitor of ill intent
And a little girl he tеrrifies
There's a poverty of innocence
[Refrain]
In a big yellow house
On a mountainside
In a big yellow house
On a mountainside
[Bridge]
There's a tractor running in the yard
And a quiet boy alone nearby
You see, getting hurt is never hard
In a big yellow house
On a mountainside
In a big yellow house
On a mountainside
In a big yellow house
On a mountainside
In a big yellow house
On a mountainside
[Chorus]
And it's true that you grow up a little faster
In a partially unnatural disaster
In a big yellow house
In a big yellow house
In a big yellow house
On a mountainside
