[vocal percussion: tight kick & snare / crowd fades in] [Intro] Param pam-pam-pam Param pam-pam-pam (haunting echo) I need your socks… I need them… out there… Param pam-pam-pam Param pam-pam-pam Oh oh Oh oh Ah ah Ye-ah ye-ah [Build] I slither in shadows beyond human sight, My kingdom of lint thrives beneath the dim light, Param pam-pam-pam Param pam-pam-pam I feast on the softness you slip on at dawn, My hunger grows as your pairs are withdrawn, Oh oh Oh oh Ah ah Ye-ah ye-ah [Drop – Chorus A/B] I’m the Sock Monster, reveling in your plight, Chewing on threads as I vanish from sight, Your patterns, your colors, they all taste so fine, No match is safe from my grand design, Oh oh Oh oh Ah ah Ye-ah ye-ah The dance of your laundry ends in my grin, (haunting echo) I need your socks… let me in… Feed me now! Feed me now! [Verse Switch] Param pam-pam-pam Param pam-pam-pam I slip through dimensions where no human can peek, A realm where foot-wear cries while I sneak, Param pam-pam-pam Ye-ah ye-ah You weep for your pairs, but I claim them all, Your dresser now echoes an empty call, Oh oh Oh oh In silent closets, I carve my delight, (haunting echo) I need your socks… tonight… tonight… [Chorus Two] I’m the Sock Monster, weaving tales of despair, Savoring cotton like delicate eclairs, From woolly stripes to neon prints so bold, I hoard them eagerly, treasures untold, Oh oh Oh oh Ah ah Ye-ah ye-ah Your cries fade away as I quietly dine, (haunting echo) I need your socks… they are mine… Feed me now! Feed me now! [Bridge – Empire Build] Param pam-pam-pam Param pam-pam-pam My empire grows beneath your unaware eyes, A throne of fibers spun from your supplies, Oh oh Oh oh I laugh at your searching, your endless quest, For socks I’ve devoured with wicked zest, Param pam-pam-pam Ye-ah ye-ah Your indignation, a muffled reprise, (haunting echo) I need your socks… in disguise… [Final Hook – Ruler Mix] I’m the Sock Monster, ruler of your drawers, Moths and dust bunnies bow at my doors, Your laundry’s lament is my serenade, A chorus of empties in my promenade, Oh oh Oh oh Ah ah Ye-ah ye-ah No knit or stitch can escape my jaws, (haunting echo) I need your socks… because… because… Feed me now! Feed me now! Hangry now! [Outro – Fading Chant] Param pam-pam-pam Param pam-pam-pam So tremble, humans, as you sort and fold, For I’ll claim what’s warm, what’s soft, what’s sold, Oh oh Oh oh A legend woven before your eyes, Your lost socks sing in an endless hall, (haunting echo, fading over humming) I need your socks… I need them all… Param pam-pam-pam Param pam-pam-pam
