Under the Bed

happened one evening on a full moon night

heard hysterical laughter in my head

scared me so bad I thought I'd die from fright

though I was shaking so bad in the bed

I just couldn't put my feet on the floor
heard hysterical laughter in my head

if I could only make it to the door

I've a greater chance at being okay

I just couldn't put my feet on the floor

so on top of the bed is where I stay

it's the bogyman that's underneath there

I've a greater chance at being okay

and in the darkness it waits with such care

ready to grab me with it's burly hands
it's the bogyman that's underneath there

it wants to take me to nightmare land

ready to grab me with it's burly hands
happened one evening on a full moon night
scared me so bad I thought I'd die from fright
