Freddy's Comin' for You

Intro

(One, two—)

Freddy’s comin’ for you

Verse

Claw hand scrapin’ on the boiler pipe

Burnt face smilin’ in the steam and the stripe

Red and green sweater, fedora dipped low

Dreamin’ kids twitchin’ where the nightmares grow

Five-finger shuffle on the boiler room floor

Mama’s lullaby turned to a chainsaw roar

“Welcome to prime time” on the TV glow

He cuts the cable, leaves the static snow

Chorus

One, two—Freddy’s comin’ for you

Three, four—better lock your door

Five, six—grab your crucifix

Seven, eight—gonna stay up late

Nine, ten—he’s back again

Verse

Heather Langenkamp on the silver screen

He rips the reel, turns the horror routine

Nancy’s booby trap, the alarm clock scream

He laughs through the blades like a fever dream

Glen’s waterbed turns to a crimson tide

He drags the souls on the Elm Street side

Phone cord tongue slitherin’ down the line

“Never sleep again,” that’s the warning sign

Chorus

One, two—Freddy’s comin’ for you

Three, four—better lock your door

Five, six—grab your crucifix

Seven, eight—gonna stay up late

Nine, ten—he’s back again

Verse

Jesse’s body, the puppet on the string

He makes the dancers do the claw-hand swing

Alice’s power, the dream-world queen

He steals the fire, turns the tables mean

“Freddy’s home,” spray-painted on the wall

Kids count the rhymes, hear the footsteps fall

He wears their screams like a leather crown

Elm Street’s king in the lost-and-found

Chorus

One, two—Freddy’s comin’ for you

Three, four—better lock your door

Five, six—grab your crucifix

Seven, eight—gonna stay up late

Nine, ten—he’s back again
