Nightmare on My Street [Single Version]

Now I have a story that I'd like to tell
About this guy you all know him
He had me scared as hell!
He comes to me at night
After I crawl into bed
He's burnt up like a weenie
And his name is Fred!
He wears the same hat and
Sweater every single day
And even if it's hot
Outside he wears it anyway!
He's gone when I'm awake but he
Shows up when I'm asleep
I can't believe that there's a
Nightmare - on my street!

It was a Saturday evening if
I remember it right
And we had just gotten back
Off tour last night
So the gang and I thought
That it would be groovy
If we summoned up the posse
And dumb rush the movies
I got Angie, Jeff got Tina
Ready Rock got some girl I'd
Never seen in my life
That was all right though 'cause
The lady was chill
Then we dipped to the theater set to ill
Buggin! Cold havin' a ball
And somethin' 'bout Elm Street was
The movie we saw
The way it started was decent, ya know
Nothing real fancy
Bout this guy named Fred and
This girl named Nancy
But word, when it was over, I said
"Yo! That was def!"
And everything seemed all right when we left
But when I got home and laid down to sleep
That began the nightmare - on my street!

It was burning in my room like an oven
My bed soaked with sweat, and man
I was buggin'
I checked the clock and it stopped at 12: 30
It had melted, it was so darn hot
And I was thirsty
I wanted something cool, to quench my thirst
I thought to myself, "Yo
This heat is the worst!"
But when I got downstairs
I noticed something was wrong
I was home all alone but the TV was on!
I thought nothin' of it as
I grabbed the remote
I pushed the power button
And then I almost choked
When I heard this awful
Voice comin' from behind it said
"You turned off David Letterman and
Now you must die!"
Man, I ain't even wait to see who it was
Broke outside in my drawers
And screamed, "So long, cuz!"
Got halfway up the block I
Calmed down and stopped screamin'
Then thought, "Oh, I get it
I must be dreamin"
I strolled back home with a grin on my grill
I figured since this is a dream
I might as well get ill
I walked in the house
The Big Bad Fresh Prince
But Freddy killed all that noise real quick
He grabbed me by my neck and said
"Here's what we'll do
We got a lotta work here, me and you
The souls of your friends you
And I will claim
You've got the body, and I've got the brain"
I said, "Yo Fred
I think you've got me all wrong
I ain't partners with NOBODY
With nails that long!
Look, I'll be honest man
This team won't work
The girls won't be on you
Fred your face is all burnt!"
Fred got mad and his head started steamin'
But I thought, what the hell
I'm only dreamin'
I said, "Please leave Fred
So I can get some sleep or gimme a call
And maybe we'll hang out next week"
I patted him on the shoulder said
"Thanks for stopping by"
Then I opened up the door and said
"Take care guy!"
He got mad, drew back his arm
And slashed my shirt
I laughed at first, then thought, "Hold up
That hurt!"
It wasn't a dream, man, this guy was for real
I said, "Freddy, uh, pal
There's been an awful mistake here"
No further words and then I darted upstairs
Crashed through my door then jumped on my bed
Pulled the covers up over my head
And said, "Oh please do somethin' with Fred!"
He jumped on my bed
Ripped through the covers with his claws
Tried to get me, but my alarm went off
And then silence! It was a whole new day
I thought, "Huh
I wasn't scared of him anyway"
Until I noticed those rips in my sheets
And that was proof that there had
Been a nightmare on my street
