(Rod Serling Intro)
Tonight's story is somewhat unique and calls for a different kind of
introduction A monster had arrived in the village The major ingredient of
any recipe for fear is the unknown And this person or thing is soon to be
met He knows every thought, he can feel every emotion Oh yes, I did forget
something didn't I? I forgot to introduce you to the monster. You're fearing
me, 'cause you know I'm a beast Watching you when you sleep, when you're in
bed I'm underneath You're trapped in halls, and my face is the walls I'm the
floor when you fall, and when you scream it's 'cause of me I'm the living
dead, the dark thoughts in your head I know just what you said That's why
you've got to be threatened by me
You should be watching me, you should feel threatened
Why you sleep, why you creep, you should be threatened
Every time your lady speaks she speaks to me, threatened
Half of me you'll never be, so you should feel threatened by me
You think you're by yourself, but it's my touch you felt
I'm not a ghost from Hell, but I've got a spell on you
Your worst nightmare, it's me I'm everywhere
In one blink I'll disappear, and then I'll come back to haunt you I'm
telling you, when you lie under tomb I'm the one watching you That's why you
got to be threatened by me
You should be watching me, you should feel threatened
Why you sleep, why you creep, you should be threatened
Every time your lady speaks she speaks to me, threatened
Half of me you'll never be, so you should feel threatened by me
(Rod Serling Verse)
The unknown monster is about to embark
From a far corner, out of the dark
A nightmare, that's the case
Never Neverland, that's the place
This particular monster can read minds
Be in two places at the same time
This is judgment night, execution, slaughter
The devil, ghosts, this monster is torture
You can be sure of one thing, that's fate
A human presence that you feel is strange
A monster that you can see disappear
A monster, the worst thing to fear.
You should be watching me, you should feel threatened
Why you sleep, why you creep, you should be threatened
Every time your lady speaks she speaks to me, threatened
Half of me you'll never be, so you should feel threatened by me
You should be watching me, you should feel threatened
Why you sleep, why you creep, you should be threatened
Every time your lady speaks she speaks to me, threatened
Half of me you'll never be, so you should feel threatened by me
You should be watching me, you should feel threatened
Why you sleep, why you creep, you should be threatened
Every time your lady speaks she speaks to me, threatened
Half of me you'll never be, so you should feel threatened by me

What you have just witnessed could be the end of a particularly terrifying
nightmare. It isn't. It's the beginning
