1
Now I have a story that I'd like to tell
2
About this guy you all know him, he had me scared as hell!
3
He comes to me at night after I crawl into bed
4
He's burnt up like a weenie and his name is Fred!
5
He wears the same hat and sweater every single day
6
And even if it's hot, outside he wears it anyway!
7
He's gone when I'm awake but he shows up when I'm asleep
8
I can't believe that there's a nightmare - on my street!
9
[Fresh Prince]
10
It was a Saturday evening if I remember it right
11
And we had just gotten back off tour last night
12
So the gang and I thought that it would be groovy
13
If we summoned up the posse and done rushed the movies
14
I got Angie, Jeff got Tina
15
Ready Rock got some girl I'd never seen in my life
16
That was all right because the lady was chill
17
Then we dipped to the theater set to ill
18
We saw Elm Street and man it was def
19
And everything seemed all right when we left
20
But when I got home and laid down to sleep
21
That began the nightmare, but on my street!
22
[Fresh Prince]
23
It was burnin in my room like an oven
24
My bed soaked with sweat, and man, I was buggin
25
I checked the clock and it stopped at 12:30
26
It had melted it was so darn hot, and I was thirsty
27
I went downstairs to grab some juice or a coke
28
Flipped the TV off, and then I almost choked
29
When I heard this awful voice comin from behind
30
It said, ";You cut off 'Heavy Metal' and now you must die!";
31
Man, I ain't even wait to see who it was
32
Broke outside my drawers and screamed, ";So long, cuz!";
33
Got halfway up the block I calmed down and stopped screamin
34
Then thought, ";Oh, I get it, I must be dreamin";
35
I strolled back home with a grin on my grill
36
I figured since this is a dream I might as well get ill
37
I walked in the house, the Big Bad Fresh Prince
38
But Freddy killed all that noise real quick
39
He grabbed me by my neck and said, ";Here's what we'll do.
40
We gotta lotta work here, me and you.
41
The souls of your friends you and I will claim.
42
You've got the body, and I've got the brain.";
43
I said, ";Yo Fred, I think you've got me all wrong.
44
I ain't partners with NOBODY with nails that long!
45
Look, I'll be honest man, this team won't work.
46
The girls won't be on you, Fred your face is all burnt!";
47
I patted him on the shoulder said, ";Thanks for stopping by.";
48
Then I opened up the door and said, ";Take care guy!";
49
He got mad, drew back his arm, and slashed my shirt
50
I laughed at first, then thought, ";Hold up, that hurt!";
51
It wasn't a dream, man, this guy was for real
52
I said, ";Freddy, uh, pal, there's been an awful mistake here.";
53
No further words and then I darted upstairs
54
Crashed through my door then jumped on my bed
55
Pulled the covers up over my head
56
And said, ";Oh please do somethin with Fred!";
57
He jumped on my bed, went through the covers with his claws
58
Tried to get me, but my alarm went off
59
And then silence! It was a whole new day
60
I thought, ";Huh, I wasn't scared of him anyway.";
61
Until I noticed those rips in my sheets
62
And that was proof that there had been a nightmare, on my street
63
FP: Oh man, I gotta call Jeff, I gotta call Jeff
64
Come on, come on
65
Come on Jeff, answer
66

76

77
JJ: Man!
78
