There was a very scary bum within the sanitarium
They say he butchered twenty-three, devoured, never buried 'em
Brave souls who have the nerve to ask, find out his name is Hannibal
A hockey mask upon his face and muzzled like an animal..

They lock him in a special cell with strong thick glass and guarding cops
He isn't very talkative, just sulks around and licks his chops
The guards unlock a sliding drawer to slide in food for him to eat
They feed him mostly vegetables, though he keeps asking for raw meat

They feed him mostly vegetables, though he keeps asking for raw meat,
They feed him mostly vegetables, though he keeps asking for raw meat,
They feed him mostly vegetables, though he keeps asking, begging for raw meat

The film they make about his life is called, "The Silence Of The Lambs"
In it, an FBI cadet is Jodie Foster with great gams
She's sent to sketch a psycholog, to interview and query some
This weird and very scary bum within the sanitarium..

Seems Hannibal's a doctor too, a real gone bad psychiatrist
He becomes quite contemptuous to learn she's on the training list
When first intimidation fails, a stare down evil scheme he tries
She plays it cool and doesn't flinch an inch beyond his piercing eyes

They form a strange relationship, a sort of beauty and the beast
He tells her graphic victim tales, like eating livers for a feast
Observing analytical, she hopes, somehow, her efforts will
