Analysis of Charlie



Hide it, hide it, not too hidden
Hide it, hide it, in the kitchen
They’ll open the cabinet and see the doll
They’ll open the cabinet and lose it all

Charlie’s waiting, Charlie’s there
He’s waiting for you, so best prepare
He smiles and stares
He’s built for scares

He’s coming for you, check every corner
He’s waiting for you’re sister, better warn her
He’s creepy and weird
And just like that, he’s disappeared
