The Bogeyman

Last night I dreamed I sailed the seven seas

I'd spoken Mandarin there with ease

I crossed the mountains, through the meadows

I followed the breeze...

When a soldier came to ask me who I was was

And why I was singing?

So I told him tales of many things

And not to fear what I was thinking

He said in Americae they'll boil your bones

They'll eat your eyes for dinner

I'd go back to where you come from

Maybe there you'll fare much better

So I told him of a mermaid, that I met the other day

And that he could have her address if I could pass

If I could pass this wayIt's oh such a shame we're oh so afraid

Don't you know that it's all in the game

It's only a bogeyman knockin' my door

But he don't live here no moreIn Washington I met a man

Who read to all his neighbors

He made a pact to save them

From mysterious invaders

Then he clapped his hands

And stamped his feet

And he sailed the seven seas

Then he chained them all to dollar bills

And told them they were free

Because in Africa they'll boil your bones

They'll eat your eyes for dinner

So go back to where you all belong and maybe

You'll feel, maybe we'll feel betterIt's oh such a shame, we're oh so afraid

Don't you know that it's all in the game

It's only a bogeyman knockin' my door

But he don't live here any moreIt's oh such a shame we're oh so afraid

Don't you know that it's all in the game

It's only a bogeyman knockin my door

But he don't live here no moreIt's only a bogeyman knockin' my door

It's only a bogeyman knockin' my door
