"Monsters Under My Bed" is a song by Mars Argo. It is featured as the eighth track on their debut album Technology Is a Dead Bird.

Background[]

The song was posted to the Grocerybag website on March 18th, 2009 by Titanic Sinclair with the description "Last night there were monsters under my bed".[1]

This track is the second instance of the robotic voice-over character Connie's narration. Throughout the lyrics, she has a conversation with herself about moving to Chicago, which is believed to have been an altered transcript of an actual conversation between Mars Argo and Sinclair.

Lyrics[]

It wasn't your fault
I don't get mad at people when it's not their fault
I only get aggravated with ignorant people and thieves
I don't do that
Only time I ever did that is when I had friends
I would just go out and do something like that
Oh, hi
My name is Connie
Want to be my friend?
I don't think so
There is nothing in the world funny about that
Me and my great ideas
Well, Connie, I thought you'd like to see it for a little while
You're out of your upper-level mind
Why would I want to go to Chicago?
I don't know a damn person here
Yeah? Well do I look like I'm having fun?
You witch, you just think it's funny

Music video[]

A music video for the song's official instrumental was released on September 9th, 2009.[2]

Synopsis[]

The video begins with Argo slowly walking a horse through a dark, grassy field, similar to that in the video "The Singularity Is Near". She then proceeds to pet the horse on its head. Shortly following this shot, Argo is shown approaching the horse in a completely black room, lifting up its front leg and petting its head again, after which she leads it out of the shot. The video ends with an end card promoting the band's debut album, Technology Is a Dead Bird.
