the elf on the shelf
he watches over my family
the elf on the shelf
is not supposed to be threatening
but i have seen his eyes
dart across the room and
look right at me
that cold unchanging smile
belies all the hate that he feels
hate that he feels
(evil cackling)
the elf on the shelf
started to speak to me in my dreams
the elf on the shelf
has claimed the souls of my family
and i have seen him steal
the butcher knife that i just finished sharpening
that cold unchanging smile
i see right through all of the plans
all of the plans
(evil cackling)
the elf on the shelf
has taken all that is dear to me
the elf on the shelf
laid waste to all that is full of cheer
but i have seen the blood
that should be on his hands appear on mine
that cold unchanging smile
i'm starting to know what it means
