Its Big Bad Mr. C comes to town,
To turn everything around and upside-down.
He takes your son, husband, friends,
Neighbors, brothers and sisters too.
Tall or small
He wants them all.
He is meaner than a snake,
Badder than a skunk,
Lowdown underhanded scum.
He comes quietly in the night
Or
Unobserved in morning
Light.
Big Bad Mr. C steals one nostril
Then the next
Nothing is left that resembles your face.
Its Big Bad Mr. C comes to town
To turn everything around and upside-down.
He takes your son, husband, friends,
Neighbors, brothers and sisters too.
Tall or small
He wants them all.
He is meaner than a snake,
Badder than a skunk,
Lowdown underhanded scum.
He gains entry through the blood
Robs a chest, an arm and leg
Deeper he goes
There is no stopping him
Till lung, kidney or stomach is gone.
He operates with precision
Leaves no trail. Sometimes closes windows
Locks doors.
No one knows his presence there.
Surprise, he has come
Taken all.
When he has a yen
He may come for you, what then?
Its Big Bad Mr. C comes to town
To turn everything around
And upside-down.
Takes your son, husband, friends,
Neighbors, brothers and sister
Too
Tall or small
He wants them all.
Meaner than a snake,
Badder than a skunk,
Lowdown underhanded scum.
Hes got to be hung,
That scum.
Shot on sight
No question asked.
This place is not safe,
Till justice be done
No one will cry for Big Bad Mr.C
There will be a sigh of relief in the land.

At last we can sleep calm.
LORD keep us far from fear and
HARM.
