Songs that creep you out

"Cross-Eyed Mary" and "Aqualung" by Jethro Tull can creep me out. The lyrics are a little skivey, and the music (especially on "Mary") is kind of disorienting.

I should point out that these are good songs. After all, horror movies are supposed to scare us.

MUSICAL INTERLUDE:

"Who would be a poor man, a beggar man, a thief

If he had a rich man in his hand

And who would steal the candy from a laughing baby's mouth

If he could take it from the money man

Cross-eyed Mary goes jumping in again

She signs no contract but she always plays the game

She dines in Hampstead Village on expense accounted gruel

And the jack-knife barber drops her off at school

Laughing in the playground

Gets no kicks from little boys

She'd rather make it with a letching grey

Or maybe her attention is drawn by Aqualung

Who watches through the railings as they play

Cross-eyed Mary finds it hard to get along

She's a poor man's rich girl and she'll do it for a song

She's a rich man's stealer

But her favour's good and strong

She's the Robin Hood of Highgate, helps the poor man get along"
