Creepy Doll
Jonathan Coulton

In a town in the woods at the top of a hill nThere’s a house where no one lives nSo you take a big bag of your big city money there nAnd buy it. nnBut at night, the house is dark nAnd you’re all alone, there’s a noise upstairs nAt the top of the stairs, there’s a door nAnd you take a deep breath and try it. nnAnd the flashlight shows you something moving just inside the door nThere’s a tattered dress and a feeling you have felt somewhere before. nnAnd there’s the creepy doll nThat always follows you nIt’s got a ruined eye nThat’s always open… nnAnd there’s a creepy doll nThat always follows you nIt’s got a pretty mouth nTo swallow you whole… nnSo you scream and you close the door nAnd you tell yourself it was just a dream nIn the morning you head into town, n‘Cause you want to go antiquing. nnIn the store there’s a strange old man nWith a wandering eye and a withered hand nWhen he hands you the old wooden box nYou can hear his old bones creaking. nnAnd you know what you will find inside the moment that you see nThat someone carved your name into the tarnished silver key. nnAnd there’s a creepy doll nThat always follows you nIt’s got a ruined eye nThat’s always open… nnAnd there’s a creepy doll nThat always follows you nIt’s got a pretty mouth nTo swallow you whole… nnAnd when you come home late, the doll is waiting up for you nAnd when you fix a snack, the doll says it would like one too nThe doll is in your house and in your room and in your bed nThe doll is in your eyes and in your arms and in your head – and you are crazy. nnNow it’s late and you head downstairs n’Cause you just can’t sleep so you make some tea nAnd the doll disapprovingly asks nIf you really need that much honey. nYou decide that you’ve had enough nAnd you lock the doll in the wooden box nYou put the box in the fireplace nNext to your bag of big city money. nnAs the smoke fills up your tiny room there’s nothing you can do nAnd far too late you see the one inside the box is you. nnAnd there’s a creepy doll nThat always follows you nIt’s got a ruined eye nThat’s always open…nnAnd there’s a creepy doll nThat always follows you nIt’s got a pretty mouth nTo swallow you whole…
