Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When you see him, look him in the eye, look him in the eye
And he won't dare to follow
If you need to, hook him with your eye, hook him with your eye
Till he wiggles and wallows
[Verse 2]
Sleeps atop a bag of raven's legs
Curled up rats, napping by his head
Takes his eye out with a ballpoint pen
Makes nunchaku with his torn off legs
[PreChorus]
Wake up with a hatchet over your head
You wake up with a hatchet over your head
[Chorus]
I can see you running, I can see you running
Gone in the blink of my eye
Gone, gone, gone in the blink of my eye
I can see you running, I can see you running
Gone in the blink of my eye
Gone, gone, gone in the blink of my, blink of my eye
[Verse 3]
Open your eyes, choking on his bed, choking on his bed
Then grimace and smile
Take a toke of his rolled cigarette
He picks your brains, he's stomping on his chest
[Verse 4]
Slit his tongue with one fast hand
And stuff his mouth with the salty sand
Tie his arms up from his head
And roll him around like a rusty can
[PreChorus]
Wake up with a hatchet over your head
You wake up with a hatchet over your head
[Chorus]
I can see you running, I can see you running
Gone in the blink of my eye
Gone, gone, gone in the blink of my eye
I can see you running, I can see you running
Gone in the blink of my eye
Gone, gone, gone in the blink of my, blink of my, blink of my eye
