Lyrics
Oh, Out in the woods not long ago
Outside a town ten miles or so
Man and wife and two small babies
Camping in the glade
On an Indian Summer getaway
A weekend full of rest and play
Tuckered out from their full day
Now sitting 'round the fire
But lurking in the shadows was a demon
With a big old set of eyes
And an appetite for souls, like these
Feeding time tonight
They never heard it coming
They never saw it coming
They were never seen nor heard from again
The Hidey-Hinder
From the gates of Hades
Overcame Daddy
And took the Mama and babies
The Hidey-Hinder done took 'em good
Back to its lair, deep in Dagger Woods
Well the tale begins hundreds of years
Through the countless days and hours
When the golden town first broke the land
Folks started disappearing
The locals swear beyond a doubt
It came over on the first slow boat
That bloodthirsty monster
They call the Hindey-Hinder
An old world apparition hitched a ride
To the new world in disguise
Supernatural baggage in the hold
From a hard life left behind
If they knew what they were bringing
I sure would not be singing
About people never seen nor heard again
The Hidey-Hinder
From the old world nations
You've reigned in terror
For seven generations
Oh Hidey-Hinder I wish I could
Prove you exist deep in Dagger Woods
Now let's go back to the present day
To a prison far the other way
To a broken lonely man
That lonely man is me
told the judge what I'm telling you
Said "Such a thing cannot be true"
He locked me up for murder
And threw away the key
He said the only monster that he's seen
Sits right before his eyes
