[English]

Oh, you give me the chill

Walking down the hallway

Talking, 'Hoo-wee'

Everybody tells a look at you

It's not because you're different

It's not because you're different

It's just because you're so scary

It's not every day we get a monster high

It's not every day we get a monster high

It's not every day we get a monster high

It's not every day we get a monster high

You can fly

We're cool kids, we're monsters, we're the high

We're students, we're monsters, we're the high

Don't be shy

We're students, we're monsters, we're the high

We're students, we're monsters, we're the high

The party never dies

It's not every day we get a monster high

It's not every day we get a monster high

I get money, I'm a star, star, star, star, star

I get money, I'm a star, star, star, star, star

I get money, I'm a star, star, star, star, star

I get money, I'm a star, star, star, star, star

I get money, I'm a star, star, star, star, star

I get money, I'm a star, star, star, star, star

I get money, I'm a star, star, star, star, star

I get money, I'm a star, star, star, star, star

It's not every day we get a monster high

It's not every day we get a monster high

It's not every day we get a monster high

It's not every day we get a monster high

You can fly

We're cool kids, we're monsters, we're the high

We're students, we're monsters, we're the high

Don't be shy

We're students, we're monsters, we're the high

We're students, we're monsters, we're the high

The party never dies

It's not every day we get a monster high

It's not every day we get a monster high

It's not every day we get a monster high

It's not every day we get a monster high

You can fly

We're cool kids, we're monsters, we're the high

We're students, we're monsters, we're the high

Don't be shy

We're students, we're monsters, we're the high

We're students, we're monsters, we're the high

The party never dies

It's not every day we get a monster high

It's not every day we get a monster high

It's not every day we get a monster high

It's not every day we get a monster high

You can fly

We're cool kids, we're monsters, we're the high

We're students, we're monsters, we're the high

Don't be shy

We're students, we're monsters, we're the high

We're students, we're monsters, we're the high

The party never dies

It's not every day we get a monster high

It's not every day we get a monster high

It's not every day we get a monster high
