?Is It Scary

 

IS IT SCARY?

Written and Composed by Michael Jackson, James Harris III and Terry Lewis

 

 

There’s a ghost down in the hall

There’s a ghoul beneath the bed

Now it’s coming through the walls

Now it’s coming up the stairs

 

There’s a spirit in the dark

Hear the beating of his heart

Can you feel it in the air

Ghosts be hiding everywhere

 

I’m gonna be

Exactly what you wanna see

 

It’s you who’s taunting me

Because you’re wanting me

To be the stranger

In the night

 

Am I amusing you

Or just confusing you

Am I the beast you visualized?

And if you wanna see

Eccentric oddities

I’ll be grotesque

Before your eye

Let them all materialize

 

Is that scary for you baby

Am I scary for you boy

Is it scary for you babe

Is it scary for you

You know the stranger is you

Is it scary for you baby

 

There’s a creaking in the floor

There’s a creak behind the door

There’s a rocking in the chair

But nobody’s sitting there

There’s a ghastly smell around

But nobody to be found

And a coffin inlay open

Where a restless soul is pokin’

 

I’m gonna be

Exactly what you gonna see

 

So did you come to me

To see your fantasies

Performed before your very eyes

A haunting ghostly treat

The ghoulish trickery

And spirits dancing

In the night

 

But if you came to see

The truth the purity

It’s here inside a lonely heart

So let the performance start

 

Is that scary for you baby

Am I scary for you boy

Am I scary for you babe

Am I scary for you boy

So tell me

Is it scary for you baby

Tell me

So tell me

Is that crazy for you baby

Am I scary for you

You know the stranger is you

Am I scary for you

 

Masquerade the heart

Is to hide a hurting soul

Just not what you see of me

Can hardly reveal the proof

Like a mirror reveals the truth

See the evil one is you

 

Is that scary for you baby

Am I scary for you boy

Am I scary for you baby

Am I scary for you boy

So tell me

Am I scary for you baby

Am I scary for you baby

Is it scary for you baby

Am I scary for you boy

 

Wanna talk about

I wanna talk about

I don’t wanna talk about

I don’t Wanna talk about

What’s scary for you baby

 

Is it scary for you

I’m tired of being abused

You know you’re scaring me too

I see the evil is you

Is it scary for you baby oh
