Into your house, and inside your head Lurking into the night, within a fright Look at me, and see what I fed Under your bed, and into your closet See what I did, to make you feel this way I can feel it, when you begin to pray (Chorus) I'm the man that walked behind you I'm the man that made you scream I'm the man that made you go crazy I'm the man that made you scared You know they call me, the boogie man Into your dreams, and inside your soul Aside your bed, and near your sheets You can feel the presense, and hear the creaks Under your covers, and near the light You look to find me, but Im out of sight I can see it, when your pillow's been bit I'm the man that walked behind you I'm the man that made you scream I'm the man that made you go crazy I'm the man that made you scared You know they call me, the boogie man Into your walls, you can hear the crawls That I begin to scare you with You start to run, and I can chase you You look behind you, and I'm not there I'm the man that walked behind you I'm the man that made you scream I'm the man that made you go crazy I'm the man that made you scared You know they call me, the boogie man That's why they call me, the boogie man
