[Verse] Shadows creep the night is dark Footsteps echo in the park Whispers float upon the breeze Heart is pounding knees are weak [Verse 2] Underneath your bed he hides In the closet where he bides Eyes like fire hands of gloom Feel his presence in the room [Chorus] Boogieman is coming close Breath like ice a ghostly dose Hold your breath and count to three Hope he'll let you be [Verse 3] Window pane begins to shake Chill runs down your spine a quake Shivers dance across your skin Boogieman is settling in [Chorus] Boogieman is coming close Breath like ice a ghostly dose Hold your breath and count to three Hope he'll let you be [Bridge] Every creak and every moan Makes you feel you're not alone Darkness twists and turns compete Boogieman is on the beat
