Gremlins Crawl - Shannon and the Clams

Gremlins crawl into your bed

Have a dream, they said

My momma asked me

Where do you go

When you’re out walking

In your sleep like a ghost?

I told her simply

I meet the monsters in the well

I found a bucket, I can see 'em

Funny secrets that they tell

Gremlins crawl into your bed

Have a dream, they said

She said don’t lie

I’ve seen more than you could dream

But in the morning, when she goes in there

Well water fills my sheets

We bought the groceries

We bought the thread to mend my dress

We bought a stone to shut the well

So they couldn’t make it back

Gremlins crawl into your bed

Have a dream, they said

(Oooh!) In dreams

(Oooh!) They came

(Oooh!) All mad

(Oooh!) They wait

(Oooh!) No one

(Oooh!) Found me

(Oooh!) Forever waiting, day by day

Gremlins crawl into your bed

Have a dream, they said
