Lyrics
THE JINN FROM CREEPER’S POND by Alan Fennah
VERSE1
Don’t go down to the stagnant lake
Across the fields beyond
Cause something lurks in the murky deep
The Jinn from Creepers Pond
With yellow eyes and duckweed hair
No soul this hag can bare
She’ll drag you down and let you drown
Then you’ll become like her
CHORUS
And beneath the treetops
You can hear a pin drop
The wind is still and birds don’t sing
As sunlight fades
The wildlife hides and nothing strays
And you’d be wise to keep away
INTRO
Don’t go , Don’t look, into the water
Don’t go, Don’t look, She’s waiting for you
VERSE2
A face that’s cast upon water
Calls her from the deep
This arborescent phantom daughter
Wretched, Green with razor teeth
In the time it takes to pull away
Her slimy hand will grip its prey
And the last thing seen as you slip away
Is the Jinn from Creepers Pond
CHORUS
STOP - Cause Jinny Green Teeth’s waiting
INTRO
Don’t go , Don’t look, into the water
Don’t go, Don’t look, She’s waiting for you
INSTRUMENTAL
CHORUS
STOP
Cause Jinny Green Teeth’s waiting
OUTRO
Mmm, Jinny Green Teeth’s waitin’
Yeah, Jinny Green Teeth’s waitin’
Mmm, Jinny Green Teeth’s waitin’
She’s going to get ya!
