The house next door is creepy
has the weirdest security system
is surrounded by overgrown forests
sitting alert in their pots
I've been in there once
the roof was leaking
the floorboards were vigorously creaking
and i saw these huge mouse traps in the bin
grasping tails and limbs of freakishly large mice
the couch couldn't be classified as a couch
it was just a bag in the corner of the room
the kitchen smelled like blue cheese
and when we went in the lounge
you could see dust and hair in the air
made me wanna stop breathing
that's why we couldn't stand it any second longer
me and my mom
so that's why we got out as quickly as we could
and two moons later
we shifted
because you could smell their filth
all the way down the street.
