Is there A BoogeyMan? You Decide...
Lyrics Below. Oooh soooo a little clamour about BoogeyMan - got some emails, etc. First off, it wasn't written as a political statement. It was more like a "what if" propostion when it came down to the visual imagery. But my god what a wake up call... I had no idea we were in such poor esteem in the eyes of the world. Anyhow... listen with an open mind, eye, ear, heart and conscience. It changed my perspective a little, just putting these thoughts together.
The Boogeyman Song
Capo 2 / Standard tuning / Harp Key of A
There ain't no boogeyman, under your bed -
I am the boogeyman, lives in your head...
You're gon' do what I say, every night -
You must do what I say, and best get it right...
I'm the creeping sensation under your skin - I'm the sinking feeling you ain't gonna win...
I'm every little dream you ever had - before the first breath, baby... shot dead.
I'm the curve in the road when you're going straight ... I'm the ice that's too thin, I'm gonna break ...
They say that everything has its price... how you dealing with being on ice?
Aren't you sick to death of playing nice? Let me show you what might entice...
The Life you're living is sad and tame, and there's no one else ...no one else...to blame ...
But if you look in the mirror, now - things might be a bit clearer somehow...
There ain't no boogeyman, There ain't no boogeyman --
I am the boogeyman, I am the boogeyman ....
I am the line that you dare not cross I'm the game you played, though you knew you'd lost...
What we're you thinking when you thought about me? Did you hope I'd keep you, or set you free?
What's in your darkness that scares you so? Why are you so afraid of letting go?
There ain't no boogeyman, under your bed -- I am the boogeyman, lives in your head....
You're gon' do what I say, every night -- You must do what I say, best get it right...
There ain't no... there ain't no....boogeyman...
Feel free to pass it around.

Blues Mama, This is a GREAT song! I hope you will upload another copy with an up-to-date video (but keeping this on so people don't forget Bush). Thanks for your music! JM

I was about to say 'no', but seeing the photo of George Bush, I quickly changed my mind :p
