"They called me the Leather Apron They called me the smiling Jack They prayed to the heavens above That I would never ever come back" Can you hear how the children weep? Chills of fear like a sawblade cutting deep Once again there is pain I bring flames - I bring cold I'm the Blood Red Sandman coming home On this unholy night I will make you my own Blood Red Sandman Coming home again Red drops stain satin so white "The way I sign my name" The neighborhood's pretty dead at night "And I'm the one to blame" Scream all you want you won't wake up when you scream "No-one leaves The Monsterican Dream"
