	In a town in the woods at the top of a hill
	There's a house where no one lives
	So you take a big bag of your big city money there
	And buy it.
	But at night, when the house is dark
	And you're all alone, there's a noise upstairs
	At the top of the stairs, there's a door
	And you take a deep breath and try it.
	And the flashlight shows you something moving just inside the door
	There's a tattered dress and a feeling you have felt somewhere before.
	And there's the creepy doll
	That always follows you
	It's got a ruined eye
	That's always open...
	And there's a creepy doll
	That always follows you
	It's got a pretty mouth
	To swallow you whole...
	So you scream and you close the door
	And you tell yourself it was just a dream
	In the morning you head into town,
	'Cause you want to go antiquing.
	In the store there's a strange old man
	With a wandering eye and a withered hand
	When he hands you the old wooden box
	You can hear his old bones creaking.
	And you know what you will find inside the moment that you see
	That someone's carved your name into the tarnished silver key.
	And there's a creepy doll
	That always follows you
	It's got a ruined eye
	That's always open...
	And there's a creepy doll
	That always follows you
	It's got a pretty mouth
	To swallow you whole...
	And when you come home late, the doll is waiting up for you
	And when you fix a snack, the doll says it would like one too
	The doll is in your house and in your room and in your bed
	The doll is in your eyes and in your arms and in your head – and you are crazy.
	Now it's late and you head downstairs
	'Cause you just can't sleep so you make some tea
	And the doll disapprovingly asks
	If you really need that much honey.
	You decide that you've had enough
	And you lock the doll in the wooden box
	You put the box in the fireplace
	Next to your bag of big city money.
	As the smoke fills up your tiny room there's nothing you can do
	And far too late you see the one inside the box is you.
	And there's a creepy doll
	That always follows you
	It's got a ruined eye
	That's always open...
	And there's a creepy doll
	That always follows you
	It's got a pretty mouth
	To swallow you whole...
