Herschell Goes to Heaven |
| Little Herschell enjoyed the snow |
| He was fond to play out doors and go |
| Along the slopes and around the wood |
| He’d play outside all night if he could |
| And why not? |
| He thought |
| It it my right |
| I think I’ll stay outside all night |
| So silly Herschell, he ran from home |
| Free to play and free to roam |
| Well he made a friend that very night |
| To keep him from dismay and fright |
| He bestowed to it |
| His scarf and his hat |
| While initiating |
| A cordial chat |
| Then out jumped the beast |
| Carnivorous and wild |
| With intentions to feast |
| On the guts of the child |
| Herschell’s new friend |
| Only stood there and smirked |
| He had given a warning |
| Of the brute that lurked |
| Faster and faster |
| You run through the snow |
| Poor little waif |
| You have nowhere to go |
| You think you’re having fun |
| But if you only knew |
| Just around the corner |
| Death is waiting for you |
| Na na |
| Na na na na na na na na na |
| Na na na na na na na na |
| Na na na na na na na na na |
| Terrified and betrayed |
| Herschell ran for his soul |
| As the creature pursued like a badgering troll |
| The boy fled with haste |
| For if he was caught |
| He’d be gormandised and left to rot |
| But just up ahead |
| A man dressed in red |
| Stood in the snow |
| Though he looked to be dead |
| Herschell beseeched him, sir can you help? |
| I’m too young to die |
| I’m only a welp! |
| But suddenly the beast, with an impetuous brace |
| Vanquished the man by clutching his face |
| The rueful child wished for his bed |
| He knew he’d be next when the old man was dead! |
| Faster and faster |
| You run through the snow |
| Poor little waif |
| You have nowhere to go |
| You think you’re having fun |
| But if you only knew |
| Just around the corner |
| Death is waiting for you |
| Na na na na na na na na |
| Na na na na na na na na na |
| Na na na na na na na na |
| Na na na na na na na na na |
| Oh great was to be requital of the man to say the least |
| Like the wing from a fly, he pulled the arm from the beast |
| The bloody thing shrieked, but the man didn’t care |
| His expression was vacant as he proceeded to tear |
| The immaculate snow became smudged with gore |
| As the monster convulsed causing blood to pour |
| Herschell was safe or so he assumed |
| But he could not perceive that his future was doomed |
| Cause the man’s intention to engage in the fight |
| Was to have the boy for his own delight |
| Herschell was seized and dragged away |
| His remains were found |
| The following day |
| Faster and faster |
| You run through the snow |
| Poor little waif |
| You have nowhere to go |
| You think you’re having fun |
| But if you only knew |
| Just around the corner |
| Death is waiting for you |
| Faster and faster |
| You run through the snow |
| Poor little waif |
| You have nowhere to go |
| You think you’re having fun |
| But if you only knew |
| Just around the corner |
| Death is waiting for you |
| Faster and faster |
| You run through the snow |
| Poor little waif |
| You have nowhere to go |
| You think you’re having fun |
| But if you only knew |
| Just around the corner |
| Death is waiting for you |
| Faster and faster |
| You run through the snow |
| Poor little waif |
| You have nowhere to go |
| You think you’re having fun |
| But if you only knew |
| Just around the corner |
| Death is waiting for you |
| Faster and faster |
| Faster and faster |
