Beware the one-eyed man. He comes with gifts or feigns distress, To be your friend or enlist your help, But in truth, he will steal your breath. Beware the one-eyed man. The night is his, and so are the streets, To walk free is only a dream, In defiance, you receive his fists. Beware the one-eyed man. Within his coat are malicious tools, Which he uses on the unlucky few, The prey he claims to be his food. Beware the one-eyed man. Whether he is real or only a myth, Look both ways when crossing the street, Lest you find your name upon his list.
