Hide and Seek

Ding Dong

I know you can hear me

Open up the door

I only want to play a little

Ding Dong

You can't keep me waiting

It's already too late

For you to try and run away

I see you through the window

Our eyes are locked together

I can sense your horror

Though I'd like to see it closer

Ding Dong

Here I come to find you

Hurry up and run

Let's play a little game and have fun

Ding Dong

Where is it you've gone to?

Do you think you've won?

Our game of hide and seek has just begun

I hear your footsteps

Thumping loudly through the hallways

I can hear your sharp breaths

You're not very good at hiding

Just wait, you can't hide from me

(I'm coming)

Just wait, you can't hide from me

(I'm coming)

Just wait, you can't hide from me

(I'm coming)

Just wait, you can't hide from me

Knock Knock

I am at your door now

I am coming in

No need for me to ask permission

Knock Knock

I'm inside your room, now

Where is it you've hid?

Our game of hide and seek's about to end

I'm coming closer

Looking underneath your bed but

You're not there, I wonder

Could you be inside the closet?

Ding Dong

I have found you

Ding Dong

You were hiding here

Now you're it

Ding Dong

Finally found you, dear

Now you're it

Ding Dong

Looks like I have won

Now you're it

Ding Dong

Pay the consequence

Ding Dong

Looks like I have won

Now you're it

Ding Dong

Pay the consequence
