Uncle John

A stranger in town, strutting around He's so impeccably dressed Suited up to succeed Asked if I knew where he'd find work teaching kids His twisted smile gave me the creeps as he said that (said that, said that) Was it the work or a child that he needs? Oh, dangerous came Say, have you met "Uncle John?" That's what the kids lovingly called him Save them before they are gone Down the dark path to the predator's sanctuary I'd seen his face, somewhere, some place Was it the news of the world Or one of those Sunday rags? This can't be him, let me look Wait a minute, it is He taught in schools, subjects diverse (diverse, diverse, diverse) Hiding so well his perverted course Oh, dangerous came Say, have you met "Uncle John?" That's what the kids lovingly called him Save them before they are gone Down the dark path to the predator's sanctuary His persona divine Disturbingly sweet He's perfected his craft Hiding lust and deceit And the innocents suffer As he has his way Say, have you met "Uncle John?" That's what the kids lovingly called him Save them before they are gone Down the dark path to the predator's sanctuary Say, have you met "Uncle John?" Save them before they are gone
