Mom don't think that I am real
I mean really what's the deal
Little James plays all alone
While I stalk him through his home
Imagine he'll be quite the show
Fido sees that I am here
Puppy's such a little dear
Think I'll take him out Tonight
Give them a little fright
Leave 'em standin in their piss tonight
Wondering if everything
Is really really alright
I can lie awake
I still hear him say
He wants to take my James away
And when I dream
He makes me scream
Why can't he leave us be
Up and down the lovely home
Jack stalks the family
James thinks it's all in good fun
Till POP goes Jamesy
Tonight I'll take you to my carnival
Leave you feelin' vulnerable
Leave you feelin' horrible
I won't let you out of sight
Come and see the show tonight
Hopin' you might die of fright
Come and see the show tonight
The show tonight
The show tonight
Sitting here don't keep me waiting
Ringmaster's light is a-blaring
My rotting children find it hurtful
Don't you like our little carnival
James might be our new arrival
I can lie awake
I still hear him say
He wants to take my James away
And when I dream
He makes me scream
Why can't he leave us be
She lies awake
She still hears me say
I Want to take her James away
And when she dreams
I make her scream
Why can't he leave us be
The door creaks
My sweat beads
I take a step
One that I would regret
Once my eyes met
The mess of a boy that I brought up
Blessed with stigmata
No longer had eyes of his father
Gurgle through the blood
Stay here with mommy
I hear the laughing down the hall
What bitch, you think it's funny
Come here a face me
I've got the blade facing your way
And as I tighten my grip
Stabbing then twist
But I never thought his little heart
Would take plunge and now he's
Up and down the loony house
Jack stalks the mommy
Mom didn't think I was real
Till pop went her family
