From hither and far you shall hear Its shriek
Shall hear It sneak and slither and creak
From hither and far It will bang like a drum
It will trick you and treat you with jewels and rum
It has no manners because where it is from
In the stead of manners the boys and girls learn to run
Learn to cry and to cough and to fall and to choke
Learn to hide your fingers away from the spokes
Your back will cry and your hair will fall
Your lips will chap and your eyes will grow small
But your feet will drag you even when they cant
Your fingers will recite their cursed daily chant
"For the sticks and stones, they break my bones"
But the words will tell me it's worth the gold
With a voice of needles and a ruthless bite
With a demeanor of demonium and eyes dark as night
It will curse you and cheat you
It will eat you and beat you
It will crawl up your back while you lie in bed
It will bite your skull and spit blood in your head
It will blow dust in your eyes and make you blind
It will creep back into the darkest corners to hide
Like a lone wolf, like a lion, It's a prowler
And you'll be dead before you can scream "The Hidden Howler"
