Creepiest song ever?

[bholder]

Whether it's the music, the lyrics, or whatever, what's the creepiest? I'll kick it off with Elvis Costello's "Watching The Detectives" - love how it slowly switches from 3rd person watching to first person:

I find "Mother" creepier.

Steely Dan, Cousin Dupree, if your going to do a song about incest, Use banjos!

Never understood why this one exists?

Yup, Bahaus did creepy pretty well in multiple mediums: sound, video and appearance... Years ago I had the radio stolen out of my car with one of their tapes in it which had Double Dare as the first song. I would have loved to see the thieves faces if they ever played it. Stigmata Martyr is a close second to DD for creepiness, and think it was track 4 on that tape.

Great tune, but just not right.

Seriously...no one thought of Radiohead's Creep?!?!

i always thought this one was a loser because it had a creepy thing to it (in my mind) but chicks liked it and sang it and seemed to popularize the sentiment for the annette funicello crowd.
