Krampus is coming 
Cover your sin 
Block the fireplace 
Don’t let him in 
Beware his switches 
Supple and thin 
Tied in a bundle,  
Used with a grin 
To punish the wrong 
And flay the skin. 
 
He’ll take our children 
Off to his lair 
Stuffed in a rucksack 
Drenched in despair 
To punish the homes 
He found in err 
So, lock all the doors 
And say a prayer 
Close all the windows- 
We must prepare 
 
For Krampus is coming, 
That Christmas Nightmare.
