Bitter Cookie

Late at night when the oven glows

He's shaping dough where the wild wind blows

Sugar crystals like broken glass

He'll catch you quick if you try to pass

Careful now, don't make a sound

His heavy boots are on the ground (shhh)

Run, run, run, as fast as you can

You can't outrun the cookie man

With eyes of coal and a sweet,

cold grin

That's where the nightmare will begin (ha-ha-ha)

Gingerbread bones and a candy cane cane

He mixes sweetness with a little bit of pain

One bite, two bite,

now you're under his spell

Nobody left of your story to tell

Sweet, sweet, tasting so bitter Leaving behind a trail

of silver glitter

(crumb by crumb)

Run, run, run, as fast as you can

You can't outrun the cookie man

With eyes of coal and a sweet,

cold grin

That's where the nightmare will begin

Crumb

by

crumb... He'll take

you

home...
