In a town in the woods at the top of a hill
There's a house where no one lives
So, you take a big bag of your big city money there
And buy it
But at night, when the house is dark
And you're all alone, there's a noise upstairs
At the top of the stairs, there's a door
And you take a deep breath and try it
And the flashlight shows you something moving just inside the door
There's a tattered dress and a feeling you have felt somewhere before
And there's the creepy doll (and there's the creepy doll)
That always follows you (that always follows you)
It's got a ruined eye (it's got a ruined eye)
That's always open
And there's a creepy doll (and there's a creepy doll)
That always follows you (that always follows you)
It's got a pretty mouth (it's got a pretty mouth)
To swallow you whole
So you scream and you close the door
And you tell yourself it was just a dream
In the morning you head into town
'Cause you want to go antiquing
In the store there's a strange old man
With a wandering eye and a withered hand
When he hands you the old wooden box
You can hear his old bones creaking
And you know what you will find inside the moment that you see
That someone's carved your name into the tarnished silver key
And there's a creepy doll (and there's a creepy doll)
That always follows you (that always follows you)
It's got a ruined eye (it's got a ruined eye)
That's always open
And there's a creepy doll (and there's a creepy doll)
That always follows you (that always follows you)
It's got a pretty mouth (it's got a pretty mouth)
To swallow you whole
And when you come home late, the doll is waiting up for you
And when you fix a snack, the doll says it would like one too
The doll is in your house and in your room and in your bed
The doll is in your eyes and in your arms and in your head, and you are crazy
ย
Now it's late and you head downstairs
'Cause you just can't sleep so you make some tea
And the doll disapprovingly asks if you really need that much honey
You decide that you've had enough and you lock the doll in the wooden box
You put the box in the fireplace next to your bag of big city money
As the smoke fills up your tiny room there's nothing you can do
And far too late you see the one inside the box is you
And there's a creepy doll (and there's a creepy doll)
That always follows you (that always follows you)
It's got a ruined eye (it's got a ruined eye)
That's always open
And there's a creepy doll (and there's a creepy doll)
That always follows you (that always follows you)
It's got a pretty mouth (it's got a pretty mouth)
To swallow you whole
