He came from a town in the state of Illinois He stabbed a guy to death when he was just a little boy Wasn't known yet that this would turn into a spree But what a better night than the night of Halloween Up the stairs he goes, his sisters turn is next He put the knife right in her now the blood pours out her neck Mommy can't believe what her baby boy has done She asked him why he did it and he said just for fun 16 years locked up in a sanitarium he escapes from his cell and now he's on the run On his path he kills everyone who comes his way He hunts his living sister like a lion hunts his prey Her friends will die quiet, lovers lay in blood Preceding on his tear his little Laurie's life is culled A night of tricks and treats, children dressed as clowns A night no one's safe because they're all lined up for a slaughterhouse The children are lined up for a slaughterhouse The only one to save us is a doctor with a gun He'll have to kill the boy who he's treated as a son Police on alert to find the boogey man But more and more turn up dead at the hands of Son of Sam With stabs to his heart and stabs to his eye A gunshot to his chest, to which he finally dies A night of tricks and treats, children dressed as clowns A night no one's safe because they're all lined up for a slaughterhouse The children are lined up for a slaughterhouse The children are lined up for a slaughterhouse The children are lined up for a slaughterhouse The children are lined up for a slaughterhouse
