ELM STREET

Robert Englund, John Saxon and Johnny Depp,

Teens plagued with disturbing dreams as they slept.
Taunted by a man scarier than Lex Luger,
If he comes while you sleep, his name's Freddy Krueger.

A severely burned figure with razor sharp claws,
And if he gets close, you better have gauze.
He'll slash you and cut you and rip you to bits,
He may even pause to glance at your tits.

Be ready for ole Freddy to visit your dream,
He's only imaginary but real he will seem.
And if you wake with a rip in your gown,
You must not sleep, you mustn't lie down.

From your nightmares -- he will come alive,
He's creepier than anything you could contrive.
Stay awake if you want to beat this old villain,
For once your eyes close, he's ready for killin.

A disfigured face, and his red and green sweater,
His metal-clawed glove he loves even better.
He will come to you at night when you're fast asleep,
Be ready to run, for the wounds will go deep.

He'll stalk you and chase you through the old boiler room,
And if he gets close, you may meet your doom.
No Doz, Speed..swallow what it may take,
To keep you wired and steadfast awake.

His name's Freddy Krueger, he comes in the night,
And even though a nightmare, you better take flight.
If he catches you, he'll slash you, your maker you'll meet,
So DO stay away from Nightmares on Elm Street!
