In the restless shadows, underneath my bed.
Unsympathetic adults claim it's all inside my head.
Ah, but last night in the bedroom, I heard a dry twig snap.
And the horrid sound of dread doom, but I'll catch it in my trap!
| Chorus: |
Something's under the bed! Better face the facts. Evil grins as it plots its attacks. Voices denying they're speaking at all, Arrows go flying and stick to the wall. Something's under the bed! Something's under the bed! |
A twisted figure groping, like a spider inside out.
My bedroom door creaked open: several more of them, no doubt.
I knew I was their quarry. My heart went icy cold.
"One more peep and you'll be sorry" was all that I was told.
(Chorus)
Distant footsteps softly pad...
Could be something really bad...
I shot him twice, but it's just my dad!
Something's under the bed!
Something's under the bed!
I thought to prove it truly real and lure it to the light.
Called out I was a juicy meal for a monstrous appetite.
I spotted something pooling, a thick and slimy trail.
Then I realized it was drooling, and began to scream and wail:
(Chorus)
Something's under the bed!
Things that slither and creep when your mom is asleep.
Something's under the bed!
Something's under the bed!
