Delirium

Mama, Mama, help me get home 

I'm out in the woods, I am out on my own. 

I found me a werewolf, a nasty old mutt 

It showed me its teeth and went straight for my gut. 

Mama, Mama, help me get home 

I'm out in the woods, I am out on my own. 

I was stopped by a vampire, a rotting old wreck 

It showed me its teeth and went straight for my neck. 

Mama, Mama, put me to bed 

I won't make it home, I'm already half-dead. 

I met an Invalid, and fell for his art 

He showed me his smile, and went straight for my heart.
