I`ve Created A Monster Lyrics

I`ve Created A Monster lyrics

(The best laid plans of love and support can backfire...)
I remember fondly
the days when we first met
You were shy and awkward, afraid of life and
yet
You were enchanting and so cute
Your innocence was charming as was
your naivete
But now it seems you've learned the ropes and much to my
dismay
You have become much more astute
And I'm afraid I've made a big
mistake
By giving you the confidence to get you on your feet
Now you are
so self-assured
It borders on conceit
Oh it seems I've made a monster out
of you
You were terrified of people when I knew you long ago
You'd never
go to parties, you'd rather stay at home
And be with just the two of
us
But still I tried to push you to come out of your shell
I didn't ask
you to forget me darlin' but I might as well
Have said to leave me in your
dust
And I'm afraid I've made a big mistake
By teaching you the social
skills you previously lacked
Now your popularity's
An undisputed
fact
Oh it seems I've made a monster out of you
Oh why, why, why did I
encourage your individuality?
You were perfectly content to live in
co-dependency
You used to lean on me for strength
I gladly gave you my
support
But now you've fallen out of love
And all my dreams have fallen
short
I thought perhaps together we both could be secure
But now I am the
frightened one and you're not even sure
That you still want to be with
me
Now you can't stop your flirting almost everywhere we go
All the men
are fawning and you just can't say "no"
To every handsome face you
see
And I'm afraid I've made a big mistake
By giving you the love that
you've so often been denied
Now my love is not enough
To keep you
satisfied
Oh it seems I've made a monster out of you
