The Sandman The Residents

Hi, it's Claire, I'm not home now so please leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can

Claire are you there?
It's him Claire, it's the sandman claire
I just saw him five minutes ago
He killed my father and now he's come for me
He's got this little shop near the campus where he sells used books and lab equipment to the students
I know that it's him, I know that face
And the way that he walked, I'll never forget it
And those eyes, he tried to fool me with those dark glasses he was wearing but I remember those beady little insect eyes
I know
I'm sorry, I know that this must sound really weird, It's just that this guy that I saw it was the sandman, It has to be him
Spring break is next week so I'll be home in a couple of days and tell you all about it
I'm sorry, I love you Claire

He tried to steal my eyes when I was little and then he disappeared after he killed my father, I knew he'd be back

I was alone and so very small
I was alone and dreaming
I heard the hard footsteps in the hall
I heard my heart screaming

They were just friends in my father's room
They were just friends when he died
There was a voice talking to the moon, It was the voice of midnight
