Rattle Away
Rattle away, rattle away,
Rattle the demons away
Dark as the night, as clear as day,
Stealing they are, stealing to stay -
Closer and closer, the deadly fay,
Rattle away, oh rattle away!
Not a word of a warning you're able to say -
There they are leaning, swirl and sway,
Ready to suck on the life's golden ray,
There they are smirking, smoky and grey,
Playful and merciless spirits of prey -
Rattle away to keep them at bay,
Rattle away, rattle and pray -
Rattle away, oh rattle away!
The parents are smiling -
A baby's play.
