My Mama Told me

dont be afraid

the bogymen are not real

and you will never be alone dearest

Mama will always be with you

years and years have gone by

and Mama is dead

but sometimes in this place

where I now live

I see her, in my lucid moments I see her

she tells me, see you will never be alone

and dont be afraid dearest

the bogymen are not real

and Mama will always be with you

but when they give me my tablets

the ones that make me sleepy

the ones that make me dribble

I talk to my secret friends

who live inside my head

and it is true

I will never be alone

and the bogymen are not real

thats what Mama said

but Mama is dead
