Dont Go In the Basement
Oh DON'T GO IN THE BASEMENT child,
Don’t let them in; don’t let them get to you
Keep all the doors that lead downstairs
Double locked, I’m telling you this for your
Own good child, do whatever you gotta do
Just DON'T GO IN THE BASEMENT...
For your basement is a portal to hell
Where demons come-a crawling up from
An old water well and a new one with
Five heads and tails just made his way
From out of the bottomless pit today and
He whispers to outcome child 'cuz I know
A really good game you'd love to play oh
But you must be wise and see through
His disguise, please listen to me and please
Do not turn that key, I know at your age
It’s hard to do what you’re told but if you
Don’t do what you’re told you will surely be
Ripped from the innocence of your precious
Soul oh so...
DON'T GO IN THE BASEMENT child 'cuz
They are there just waiting to hurt you now
So keep all the doors that lead downstairs
Closed and double locked, I’m telling you for
Your own good child, you can do whatever
You wanna do just DON'T, DON’T GO IN THE
BASEMENT!
