The Rules Song
From "Monster Detectives"


Tyrone: You must be sneaky now.
Uniqua: I must be sneaky now.
Tyrone: Especially sneaky now.

Uniqua: Especially sneaky now.

Tyrone: You can't have shoes that are squeaky now, lady,

You've got to be quiet, too,
Uniqua: Quiet, too,
Tyrone: Quiet, too.


Rule number one be quiet.
You cannot make a sound.

Make sure your feet land softly,
when they step upon the ground.


Uniqua: Okay I must be quiet.
I will not make a sound.
But what if I must yell or shriek,

or howl like a hound?

Tyrone: You mustn't even make a peep,

or else we will be found!

Uniqua (spoken): So, I have to be sneaky and quiet.

Tyrone: (spoken): If you wanna get your ball back, that's
rule number one.
Uniqua (spoken): Well, I can do that!

Tyrone: (spoken): But there's more. There's rule
number two.


Tyrone: Pay attention, lady,
'cause here's rule number two:
If you see that monster

do not let it play with you!

If you play with the monster,

lady, you'll be through.
'Cause whoever plays with the monster,
will become a monster, too!


Uniqua: If I play with that monster
I'll be a monster too.

Hey, that might be pretty neat!
It might be fun to do.


Tyrone: No that won't be neat.
It's not what you should do.
So if you see the monster

Do not let it play with you!

Uniqua (spoken): I could really turn into a soccer monster?

Tyrone (spoken): Only if you play soccer with one. So
don't. That's rule number two.


Tyrone: We'll creep and sneak and peek around,
'til we find that soccer ball,
Uniqua: Soccer ball,

Both: 'til we find that soccer ball!
