They keep creeping towards the door

My stomach

Twists, like a worm beneath the lure

My heart beat

Skips, like a phonograph

Old machines weren’t built to last

But they keep creeping towards the door.

They keep creeping towards the door

Their bodies

Reek, like they’re carrying a corpse

Their footsteps

Creak, as they circle in

And the power’s running thin

But they keep creeping towards the door.

The phone guy tells me

that there is no danger

But I suspect that things

will get much stranger

Something about this room is hypnotizing

Paralyzing

Terrifying!

They keep creeping towards the door

My backbone

Shakes, like a tremor on the floor

My knee caps

Quake. Why don’t I just scram?

Or unplug that stupid fan!

Cuz they keep creeping towards the door.

These furry phonies

masquerade like they’re cute

The kids don’t notice ‘cause

they think they’re cartoons

Oh don’t look now I think that

Freddie’s en route on route

Deadly pursuit

Sweaty fursuit

(scat break)

(guitar solo)

The phone guy tells me

that there is no danger

But I suspect that things

will get much stranger

Something about this room is hypnotizing

Paralyzing

Terrify...
