Don't Step on the Cracks

('Step on a crack, you'll break your mother's back' is an old saying)


Don't step on the cracks

Don't step on the cracks

Mum's back will break

For goodness sake

Don't step on the cracks


The Devil from the Paving Stone

Will rise up and grab her

I've warned you before

You're fighting a war

He might kidnap and nab her


Don't step on the cracks

Don't step on the cracks

Crossing that line

Will snap her spine

Don't step on the cracks


The Gremlin from the Underground

Will leap out and chase her

Push her in a hole

As big as a goal

Till nobody can nobody can trace her


Don't step on the cracks

Don't step on the cracks

Her bones will bust

Turn into dust

Don't step on the cracks


The Savage from the Stony Slab

Will stalk and attack her

Steal all her stuff

Treat her real rough

And permanently trap her


So don't step on the cracks

Be careful where you tread

But in trying to avoid them...

Don't walk under ladders instead!
