I put in a lotta time here

So I recorded a warnin' for ya

Only got to night five here

But I got more to the story, lore dump

Careful, the killer's in the buildin', now

Did you get all the unattended children out?

We play hard on the graveyard (alright, alright)

But once you're in, no gettin' out

Oh, so you workin' security?

Intruder alerts are surely a certainty

Including the curse of work insecurity

When your imposter syndrome ends up turning you purply

Pull up your monitors, toggle between

Even if somethin' on 'em is jumpin' off of the screen

The party's poppin' off, everybody's startin' to scream

If you keep up with the monsters, you can follow your dreams

So you picked up the job, now, don't drop your guard

'Cause, the pizza's not hot, but the demons are

Started from the ball-pit, no apologies

If I get nostalgic for all things (whoo) Chuck E. Cheese

The first animatronic to serenade me with song

And ever since, it's like I never stopped singin' along

Stuck in a circular circus, it's an eternal loop, now

Every remnant of any family fun was scooped out

Now, my gears have gone dull 'cause I'm hard on my grind

Started with the night-shift, now I'm pullin' full-time

I got Freddy in my veins, it ain't Mercury

We lost all the magic behind the curtain, see?

I am inactive when I'm under the lights (lights)

Because the magic only happens at night (tonight)

I'm sick of singin' songs I wouldn't write

To think I thought that this job would not actually bite

'Cause I was

Another bad night, but that was last night

Onto the next night, na-na, na-na-na

Another bad night, but you'll come back, right?

Until the last night, na-na, na-na-na, na

Late nights are fine by me

In the daylight, I hide my teeth

When I play nice, you might not see this comin'

'Cause I'll be back for another bite

What do you need a clock for? (What do you need a lock for?)

All outta time, who wants more? (The audience!)

Knockin' upon your door, what do they hunger for?

Give 'em the essence of creation (at its core)

Hi kids, if you like violence

Look into my eyes, soon you'll see from inside them (yay!)

You should never judge any endoskeleton by his cover

When all his wires are tangled, just work on findin' the gutters

Because when I come to life, you'd be wiser to hide

Keep an eye on the time, and a light by your side

You can try, if you'd like, to survive every night

Take my hand, don't be shy, need a friend? Phone a guy (yeah, uh, ha)

Minimum wage ain't great, but you never knew (where you'll go)

'Cause, you can take a day-job like a steppin' stone

Would you prefer a spring trap to a pigeonhole?

Now you're a one-trick pony, but you're not alone

No wonder why you keep comin' back (comin' back)

Playin' out the tape, just so you could run it back (run it back)

Over and over again until there was nothin' left (nothin' left)

Tryin' to find the answers you're never gonna get

(Because I was)

Another bad night, but that was last night

Onto the next night, na-na, na-na-na

Another bad night, but you'll come back, right?

Until the last night, na-na, na-na-na, na

Late nights are fine by me

In the daylight, I hide my teeth

When I play nice you might not see this comin'

'Cause I'll be back for another bite

I've punched my card, nine-to-five can be real slow

Lights off, doors locked, now you're gettin' a real show

Who would wanna work a day-job? Not me

You ain't gettin' off the graveyard scot-free

Job description didn't say I would make it

Nor did I fit the position, but I've decided to take it (so, fake it)

Another bad night, but that was last night

Onto the next night, na-na, na-na-na

Another bad night, but you'll come back, right?

Until the last night, na-na, na-na-na, na

Late nights are fine by me

In the daylight, I hide my teeth

When I play nice, you might not see this comin'

'Cause I'll be back for another bite

You wanna wear my skin? Go on and step right in

You wanna wear my skin? Go on and step right in

(On, and on, and on, and on, away)

(I mean, on, and on, and on, and on, away)

(I mean, on, and on, and on, and on, away)

(I mean)

Who is comin' back for another bite?
