Lyrics by Proxwarrior33. TM [Verse] Down in the cellar, under torchlit stone, Three little boxes with a mind of their own. Gold eyes gleamin’, tongues all red — One tiny wiggle and the room sees red. [Pre‑Chorus] Clack‑clack — hear that grin, Step too close and it pulls you in. [Chorus] Mimic chest — let the hinges scream, Snap‑snap‑snap in the lantern gleam. Shake that floor when the jaws break through, Teeth in the dark saying “I want you.” Mimic chest — hear the click‑click choir, Step back quick when the locks catch fire. Grin goes wide in a shadowed crawl, One wrong move and it eats it all. [Verse 2] It skittered through the shadows Past the books and brews, Left little trails of splinters Like wicked, laughing clues. [Pre‑Chorus] Clack‑clack — hear that grin, Step too close and it pulls you in. [Chorus] Mimic chest — let the hinges scream, Snap‑snap‑snap in the lantern gleam. Shake that floor when the jaws break through, Teeth in the dark saying “I want you.” Mimic chest — hear the click‑click choir, Step back quick when the locks catch fire. Grin goes wide in a shadowed crawl, One wrong move and it eats it all. [Bridge] Crack one open — shadows stare, Tongues like ribbons in the smoky air. If the treasure starts breathing tonight, I’m already gone like a ghost in flight. [Instrumental Break] [Refrain] (Shoo‑wop‑doo‑wop) (Shoo‑wop‑doo‑wop) Little mimic creeping with a sideways hop (Bop bop doo‑wop) Tongue flicks out (hah!) Eyes glow bright in the dungeon’s drop (Wop wop) Teeth all tapping (hey!) Locks twitch sharp when the shadows stop (Shoo‑wop‑doo‑wop) (Shoo‑wop‑doo‑wop) If it starts breathing, you don’t dare knock (Bop bop doo‑wop) (Bop bop doop doo‑wop) (Maw maw‑maw do do do‑do) That mimic’s ready for another chomp [Instrumental Break] [Final Chorus] Mimic chest — let the hinges scream, Snap‑snap‑snap in the lantern gleam. Shake that hall when the jaws break through, Teeth in the dark whisper “I want you.” Mimic chest — hear the click‑click choir, Step back fast when the locks catch fire. Grin goes sharp in a creeping crawl, One wrong step and it takes it all. Mimic chest — when the shadows bend, Glow‑eyes watching till the very end. Snap‑snap‑snap as the lids swing wide, Back out quick when the clicks collide.
