Will Smith - Nightmare On My Street Lyrics
Artist: dj jazzy jeff & the fresh princeNow I have a story that Id like to tellAbout this guy you all know he had me scared as hellHe comes to me at night after I crawl into bedHes burnt up like a weenie and his name is fredHe wears the same hat and sweater every single dayAnd even if its hot outside he wears it anywayHes home when Im awake but he shows up when I sleepI cant believe that theres a nightmare on my streetIt was a saturday evening if I remember it rightAnd we had just gotten back off tour last nightSo the gang and I thought that it would be grooveyIf we summoned up the posse and done rushed the movieI got angieJeff got tinaReady rock got some girl Id never seen in my lifeThat was all right because the lady was chillThen we dipped to the theater set to illWe saw elm street and man it was defAnd everything seemed all right when we leftBut when I got home and laid down to sleepThat began the nightmare, but on my streetIt was burning in my room like an ovenMy bed soaked with sweatAnd man I was buggingI checked the clock and it stopped at 12:30It had melted it was so darn hotAnd I was thirstyI went downstairs to grab some juice or a cokeFlipped the tv off, and then I almost chokedWhen I heard this awful voice coming from behindIt said, you got my favorite letter but now you must dieMan, I aint even wait to see who it wasBroke inside my drawers and screamed, so long, cuzGot halfway up the blockI calmed down and stopped screamingThen thought, oh, I get it, I must be dreamingI strolled back home with a grin on my grillI think that since this is a dream I might as well get illI walked in the house, the big bad fresh princeBut freddy killed all that noise real quickHe grabbed me by my neck and saidHeres what well doWe gotta lotta work here, me and youThe souls of your friends you and I will claimYouve got the body and Ive got the brainI said, yo fredI think you got me all wrongI aint partners with nobody with nails that longLook, Ill be honest man, this team wont workThe girls wont be on you, fred, your face is all burntI patted him on the shoulder, said thanks for stopping byThen I opened up the door and said take care guyHe got mad, drew back his arm, and slashed my shirtI laughed at first, then thought, hold up, that hurtIt wasnt a dream, man, this guy was for realI said, freddy, uh, pal, theres been an awful mistake hereNo further words and then I darted upstairsCrashed through my door then jumped on my bedPulled the covers up over my headAnd said, oh please do something with fredHe jumped on my bed, went through the covers with his clawsTried to get me, but my alarm went offAnd then silenceIt was a whole new dayI thought, huh, I wasnt scared of him anywayUntil I noticed those rips in my sheetsAnd that was proof that there had been a nightmare on my streetFp: oh man, I gotta call jeff, I gotta call jeffCome on, come onCome on jeff, answerCome on, manJj: hello?Fp: jeff, this is prince, manJeff, wake up,Jeff, wake upJj: what do you want?Fp: jeff, wake up, man,Listen to me, jeffJj: its three oclock in the morning, what do you want?Fp: jeff, jeff, would you listen to me?Listen, whatever you do, dont fall asleepJj: manFp: jeff, listen to me, dont go to sleep, jeffJj: look, Ill talk to you tomorrow, Im gong to bedAhhhhhh! ahhhhhh!
