Children, have you ever met the Boogeyman before? No, of course you haven't, for you're much too good, I'm sure. Don’t you be afraid of him if he should visit you He's a great big coward, so I'll tell you what to do:
Hush, hush, hush – here comes the Boogeyman! Don't let him come too close to you, he'll catch you if he can. Just pretend that you’re a crocodile And you'll find that Boogeyman will run away a mile.
Say "shoo, shoo" and stick him with a pin Boogeyman will very nearly jump out of his skin. Say "buzz, buzz" just like the wasp that stings Boogeyman will think you are an elephant with wings .
Hush, hush, hush - here comes the Boogeyman!
Tell him you’ve got soldiers in your bed For he will never guess that they are only made of lead.
Say "hush, hush" – he’ll think that you’re asleep If you make a lovely snore away he'll softly creep. Sing this tune, you children one and all , Boogeyman will run away, he'll think it's Henry Hall.
When the shadows of the evening creep across the sky And your mommy comes upstairs to sing a lullaby Tell her that the Boogeyman no longer frightens you: Uncle Henry very kindly told you what to do!
Hush, hush, hush - here comes the Boogeyman! Don't let him come too close to you, he'll catch you if he can. Just pretend your Teddy Bear's a dog Then shout out :"fetch him, Teddy!" – and he'll hop off like a frog.
Say "meow", pretend that you’re a cat, He’ll think you may scratch and that will make him fall down flat. Just pretend he isn't really there – You will find that Boogeyman will vanish in thin air.
Here's one way, to catch him without fail – Just keep a little salt with you and put it on his tail.Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
