On the wedding anniversary
|
Of the Johnson¡¯s
|
They went out on a date.
|
Little Jimmy had strict orders
|
To be in bed, to be in bed by eight.
|
But little Jimmy knew they¡¯d be late,
|
And he liked TV, he thought it was great¡¦
|
He¡¯s not alone¡¦
|
Turning channels, Jimmy faltered
|
After hearing what he thought might have been
|
Creepy chuckles, scary breathing,
|
And the sounds of metal s-s-s-s-scraping on wood.
|
Hired by the Johnson¡¯s that day
|
He¡¯s professional
|
And likes things his way
|
Or not at all¡¦
|
He¡¯s for hire
|
The man upstairs
|
He¡¯ll take care of you.
|
Jimmy grabbed the phone receiver,
|
Called the fuzz up
|
While he peed in his pants
|
Down the staircase
|
In the next room
|
Here he comes, kid,
|
Hatchet clutched in his hands.
|
Jimmy trembled and crept through the dark
|
Into the kitchen
|
Where all the knives are¡¦
|
He¡¯s not alone¡¦
|
Here comes the man¡¦
|
He¡¯s for hire
|
The man upstairs
|
He¡¯ll take care of you.
|
What a man, what a man, what a man, what a mighty good man!
|
What a man, what a man, what a man, what a mighty good man, a mighty mighty good man!
|
What a man, what a man, what a man, what a mighty good man!
|
I'm the man, the man from upstairs!
|
I'm the man, the man from upstairs!
|
I'm the man, the man from upstairs!
|
I'm the man, the man from upstairs!
|
Whoa, yeah yeah yeah!
|
Go!
|
ONE!
|
TWO!
|
ONE!
|
TWO!
|
ONE TWO THREE FOUR!
