[Intro: music box, sleigh bells, wind howling] (He sees you when you're sleeping...) You thought the fat man was the one to fear... (Bells... chains... footsteps in the snow) [Verse 1: rap-sung] Stockings hung by the chimney like bait on a hook Every name on the list, yeah, I read it, I looked You been naughty all year, thought nobody would know Now there's hoofprints in the frost and a chain in the snow No milk and cookies, no ho-ho-ho Just a sack on his back where the bad kids go Birch switch swinging, horns in the blizzard light Jingle bells jingle like a warning tonight [Pre-Chorus: building] Lock the door (he's already in) Say a prayer (he don't care about your sin) Bells on his chains getting closer and closer December 5th, it's over, it's over! [Chorus: shouted, gang vocals] KRUMPS! KRUMPS! Coming down the chimney! KRUMPS! KRUMPS! Ain't no mercy in me! Naughty list, checked it twice, now you're mine tonight KRUMPS! KRUMPS! Christmas turns to fright! [Verse 2: rap-sung, harder] Santa brings the toys, I bring the terror and the coal Rusty old cage for the wicked little soul You lied to your mama, you broke every rule Now the snow's turning red 'round the old Yule Chains rattle rhythm like a beat you can't stop Hooves on the rooftop, thump, thump, THUMP Coal-black eyes in the fireplace glow Say goodnight, kid — down the sack you go [Pre-Chorus] Lock the door (he's already in) Hide and seek (he knows where you've been) Bells on his chains getting closer and closer December 5th, it's over, it's over! [Chorus: shouted, gang vocals] KRUMPS! KRUMPS! Coming down the chimney! KRUMPS! KRUMPS! Ain't no mercy in me! Naughty list, checked it twice, now you're mine tonight KRUMPS! KRUMPS! Christmas turns to fright! [Bridge: whispered, sinister] Little children, fast asleep... Something's crawling through the deep... You can jingle, you can deck the halls... But Krumps is coming when the midnight calls... (He knows... he knows... HE KNOWS!) [Breakdown: halftime, chug riffs, chant] SWITCH! (WHIP!) — pay for what you did! SACK! (DROP!) — in goes the wicked kid! CHAIN! (DRAG!) — down to the underworld snow! KRUMPS! KRUMPS! — now you know! Now you know! [Guitar Solo: dissonant, wah-drenched, over chugging rhythm] [Final Chorus: biggest, gang vocals, screamed ad-libs] KRUMPS! KRUMPS! Coming down the chimney! (COMING FOR YOU!) KRUMPS! KRUMPS! Ain't no mercy in me! (NO MERCY!) Naughty list, checked it twice, now you're mine tonight KRUMPS! KRUMPS! Christmas turns to fright! [Outro: music box returns, slowed and detuned, sleigh bells fade] You thought the fat man was the one to fear... Merry Christmas... you've been bad this year... (Chains dragging away into the snow...)
