I think they did something similar called "5 People in My Family" which is heard on "Jim Henson: A Sesame Street Celebration" and "Songs From the Street".

I never heard five monsters on the LP nor have I seen it on TV, but I do have a book from the 70's called "Five People In My Family" that has "Five Monsters In My Family" in the second half of it. It recites the poem/song.

and scary husband...

hairy son.

5 monsters in my family...
1-2-3-4-5.
