[Fresh Prince]
|
Now I have a story that I'd like to tell
|
About this guy you all know him, he had me scared as hell!
|
He comes to me at night after I crawl into bed
|
He's burnt up like a weenie and his name is Fred!
|
He wears the same hat and sweater every single day
|
And even if it's hot, outside he wears it anyway!
|
He's gone when I'm awake but he shows up when I'm asleep
|
I can't believe that there's a nightmare - on my street!
|

|
It was a Saturday evening if I remember it right
|
And we had just gotten back off tour last night
|
So the gang and I thought that it would be groovy
|
If we summoned up the posse and done rushed the movies
|
I got Angie, Jeff got Tina
|
Ready Rock got some girl I'd never seen in my life
|
That was all right because the lady was chill
|
Then we dipped to the theater set to ill
|
We saw Elm Street and man it was def
|
And everything seemed all right when we left
|
But when I got home and laid down to sleep
|
That began the nightmare, but on my street!
|
|

|
It was burnin in my room like an oven
|
My bed soaked with sweat, and man, I was buggin
|
I checked the clock and it stopped at 12:30
|
It had melted it was so darn hot, and I was thirsty
|
I went downstairs to grab some juice or a coke
|
Flipped the TV off, and then I almost choked
|
When I heard this awful voice comin from behind
|
It said, "You cut off 'Heavy Metal' and now you must die!"
|
Man, I ain't even wait to see who it was
|
Broke outside my drawers and screamed, "So long, cuz!"
|
Got halfway up the block I calmed down and stopped screamin
|
Then thought, "Oh, I get it, I must be dreamin"
|
I strolled back home with a grin on my grill
|
I figured since this is a dream I might as well get ill
|
I walked in the house, the Big Bad Fresh Prince
|
But Freddy killed all that noise real quick
|
He grabbed me by my neck and said, "Here's what we'll do.
|
We gotta lotta work here, me and you.
|
The souls of your friends you and I will claim.
|
You've got the body, and I've got the brain."
|
I said, "Yo Fred, I think you've got me all wrong.
|
I ain't partners with NOBODY with nails that long!
|
Look, I'll be honest man, this team won't work.
|
The girls won't be on you, Fred your face is all burnt!"
|
I patted him on the shoulder said, "Thanks for stopping by."
|
Then I opened up the door and said, "Take care guy!"
|
He got mad, drew back his arm, and slashed my shirt
|
I laughed at first, then thought, "Hold up, that hurt!"
|
It wasn't a dream, man, this guy was for real
|
I said, "Freddy, uh, pal, there's been an awful mistake here."
|
No further words and then I darted upstairs
|
Crashed through my door then jumped on my bed
|
Pulled the covers up over my head
|
And said, "Oh please do somethin with Fred!"
|
He jumped on my bed, went through the covers with his claws
|
Tried to get me, but my alarm went off
|
And then silence! It was a whole new day
|
I thought, "Huh, I wasn't scared of him anyway."
|
Until I noticed those rips in my sheets
|
And that was proof that there had been a nightmare, on my street
|
|
