The Boogeyman

The Boogeyman lives in the night,

Haunting all of your dreams.

But if you walk right up to him,

He isn’t what he seems!

He’s really a very nice fellow,

Though his teeth are really yellow.

He is not the one giving you nightmares,

He told me.

But he is surprised,

That you all act like baloney!

He says it’s just a trick of the mind,

Not his fault at all,

So never blame him again,

I’m tellin y’all!
