Mother, mother Never finished our game Father, father Hide and seek was yesterday Voices call me To some place I don't know Voices call me Tell them no! Please, no Sister, sister Why do you cry on my doll? Brother, brother Can't you see me here at all? Sister, sister Don't go there; it's nothing nice Brother, brother Bones are covered all in mice Voices call me To some place I don't know Voices call me Tell them no! Please, no Teacher, teacher I am feeling so alone Preacher, preacher I'm so sorry, I was wrong Teacher, teacher I won't be in school today Preacher, preacher Said, “Be quiet and stay.” Voices call me To some place I don't know Voices call me Tell him no! Please, no |
