I’ve got a little secret
That I’m not allowed to tell
If I tell it to the world
I will die and go to hell
Mommy says, mommy says
She says I am to weak
There’s a problem in my head
That’s why they call me a freak
No one knows
There’s food inside my mouth today
A light bulb in the sky
I can’t find my milk nowhere
My mouth is awfully dry
Daddy’s here, daddy’s here
To make them go away
Little voices in my head
That might make me go astray
No one knows
The door that I can’t see nor reach
Is locked from the other side
Sometimes I hear the voices
Telling me to run and hide
Daddy’s here, daddy’s here
To make them go away
Little voices in my head
That might make me go astray
No one knows
Daddy’s here, daddy’s here . . .
Time is ticking away
But there’s no clock upon the wall
I can’t reach the window
For I’m six inches too small
The Reaper’s here, Grim Reaper’s here
The voices try to say
But it’s only my daddy
To make them go away
Daddy’s here, daddy’s here
To make them go away
Little voices in my head
That might make me go astray
