You know my mom ,

Did you like my gift?

My grandmother has had it around for years,

and I wanted to give it to someone who would be responsible,

and God only bless me with one son,

and we all know he ain't responsible enough

to take care of it.

So please, please take care of it for me.

And you know, I was thinking.

And make sure,

you cover the mirrors before you go to sleep.

So if you don't cover the mirrors, when you sleep,

your soul leaves the body
