Gem Gremlin

[Intro – muffled laughter, crunching gem sounds, old boom-bap drums crackle in] Awww...Sparkly...Oooo...shiny... From crystals huge to gemstones tiny... I eat 'em all still doesn't satisfy my appetite. Laughin' as I wait out the day....I can't stand the light. [Verse 1] Little cave creeper with a grin glistening growin' wide... Diamond-eyed goblin or at least the ghost of one that died. Fiendin' for them gems, I just get too damn hungry at night. Gone by dawn, no trace, jewels gone never again to see the light. Wedding ring vanished...yoink...moments before they got hitched... Poor bastard was blamed, left standing at the altar...dude got ditched. (Ooof) Every crystal danglin' from the chandelier...like eatin' grapes off the vine. Meanwhile rich folks bitchin' to cops as I'm making their shiny stuff mine. (Heheheh) Cameras cut out...machines malfunction... Ghosts always cause some kind of technical dysfunction. Perks of the dead...never would I trade death to live instead...—you heard what I said. (Yep) A billionaire cryin’ over rubies I seized with ease. While I'm nibblin' as many emeralds and opals as I please. (Crunch crunch) These opals are fire...surely a good year. Teeth sparkle bright every time I sense more jewels are near...give 'em here! (Gimme gimme) [Hook] Gem Gremlin...creepin' through shadows and crawlin' in mansion walls... Gem Gremlin...stealin' while you sleepin' after darkness falls... I don’t want gold, I don’t care about cash... Just want those glimmering rocks and I'm comin' for yo stash. (Gimme gimme) Oh look...Giovanni the big dog of Team Rocket... I better have a peek at what he's got in his pocket... A photo of Jesse wearing nothing but a smile...(Dayum) I'll just hang on to this for a while...(Gimme gimme) Gem Gremlin...Little menace master of the five finger transaction... Sometimes I steal stuff just to get a kick out of the suckers reaction...(heheheh) Gem Gremlin...take what I can carry then come back and snatch the rest... I'm just a Sableye a shy and quiet guy but my fingers stick the best... Laughin’ in the shadows with a mouth full of jewels... Anything shiny I swipe —Gimme gimme— robbin' these fools... Gem Gremlin... [Bridge – beat strips down, echoing cave drips] click… clack… crunch… Hear that? Too late they've been ate... Just had priceless blood diamonds for lunch... Tried to save 'em for a special occasion but damn...I couldn't wait. [Verse 2] Whole town paranoid...cops blaming crooks and Karens blaming kids. Snatchin' is what I love, if you ever hear I quit...trust my undying soul forbids...(Gimme gimme) And if I fall I'm stealing everything from you as I descend Since I'm already dead, when I hit the bottom, still won't be my end. Meanwhile I'm stackin' gemstones in my secret subterranean cave...(Gimme gimme) Pawn shops raided, Starmies jacked, even exhumed a rich man's grave...(Shhh) Old ladies fought over an Emerald fit for a Queen. So I swiped it right in front of them and wasn't even seen...(yoink) Professional hater with a taste for rarities. Evil but there are far more vile varieties. See a shiny lil’ jewel? Yeah that things about to get lifted. Goblin forged in the dark and the dead with steps so silent I walk in mute. Sleep paralysis greedy demon eyes gleamin' in dark corners I take root. And the wild part? I don’t even sell my treats—(nope) Just hoard them underground to use as my eats. [Hook] Gem Gremlin...creepin' through shadows and crawlin' in mansion walls...

Gem Gremlin... [Outro – vinyl slowing down, distant goblin cackling] If you got exquisite stones to put on, better not, or they too will be gone. I even swiped some chumps prized Ruby and Sapphire versions of Pokémon...(whoops) If it gleams, if it glows, if it's expensive and rocks that luster glow... It don't matter where you hide it...I'm the mutha fuckin' Gem Gremlin and I already know! ...Gimme gimme... ...Gimme...Give them gems to me...Heheheh... ...YOINK...GIMME... What's yours is mine and everything belongs to me... Gem Gremlin...greediest ghost there will ever be....
