[Verse 1]
Damned clowns
And the puppets with human hands
Mannequins moving, my mind barely understands

[Chorus]
Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel
Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel

[Verse 2]
I turn away and close my eyes
But it's hard not to visualize some

[Chorus]
Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel
Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel

[Verse 3]
Damned dolls
And the robots with human eyes
Uncanny valley, disfigured, dehumanized

[Chorus]
Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel
Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel
[Verse 4]
My heart, it beats at record rates
When Stephen Gammell illustrates some

[Chorus]
Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel
Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel

[Bridge]
Rapidly aging and melting away
Buzz-saws for hands, and the monsters of clay
When video-tape logos emerge from the void
And the unearthly synthesizers they employ was

[Chorus]
Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel
Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel

[Verse 5]
I close my eyes and turn away
But half my mind still wants to play with

[Chorus]
Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel
Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel
[Outro]
(Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel)
(Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel)
(Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel)
(Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel)
(Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel)
(Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel)
(Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel)
