Come on young one
Go to sleep
Please be quiet, not a peep
I'm outside your window,
Now I'm under your bed,
If you don't sleep
Soon you'll be dead.
Red is my Colour,
I'll paint you pretty
Oh please don't look at my face in pity
Just go to sleep now
Do not weep
For next to you I will creep ,
I'll watch your eyelids flutter and roll,
And if you wake, I'll plunge real deep,
I'll take your soul.
Go to sleep now,
Not a peep.
I'm sitting on top of your bed sheets,
If you don't sleep
Soon you'll be dead,
I'll paint you pretty all in red.
