Oh little children
So small and so sweet
I come with the darkness
You to greet
I\'m inside your pillow
Like the drone of flies
I smell like flesh rotting
Don\'t open your eyes
I\'m under your bed
In the dark of the night
I come out of the cellar
I\'m the shadow of fright
I wait in your closet
Until you\'re asleep
To crawl under your covers
Your breath to keep
I\'ll burrow under your skin
Lay eggs while you rest
When the larva hatch
They\'ll burst out of your chest
I\'ll bore into your ear
To get inside your head
To steal your dreams
To bring back the dead
Years of your life
With your soul I\'ll eat
Suck up your warmth
Gag you with your sheet
See the goose flesh
Do you feel cold?
Crippled and stiff
I look so old
My skin is wrinkled
My hair matted and white
Come closer little one
Are you afraid I\'ll bite?
