Lock Down

The bogey man is here Uncle Gunnysack No longer hiding in English peat bogs The Bag Man who carries a bag and kidnaps those who don't behave Do you hear him knocking Why don’t you want to go to bed He will take you away if you wont obey your parents He will pull you up into tiny holes in the ceiling A siren will sound when all is safe
