I have killed every beast in the garden I've got rid of the pests and the weeds I have plucked from the ground every poisonous plant Welcome to the house of mine I have locked every ghost in the attic After filing their claws and their teeth I have blunted today every treacherous blade Welcome to the house of mine Don't be afraid of a demon Living in the well outside He's not a killer, he's a healer Giving us the water of life Don't be afraid of a friend Squatting near the gate again He's not a thief not a murderer He's most likely hiding from rain Don't be afraid of a hag Fierce and twisted and mad She use to be a fine bride Now she's old and falling apart
