"Hush now, hide, all you little ones / Rush now, into the middle of nowhere / Singing and laughter will die"

I don't know much about Centaurworld aside from the promotional images Netflix put out back when it first was premiering, and this is absolutely not the vibe I got from it. I mean if anything, it looked like it had more of an Adventure Time vib-- ohhh, this is one of the shows that's goofy and colorful on the surface, and then has really dark undertones to shake things up, huh?

I mean, this is terrifying. Is it a song that I'd want to listen to regularly? Not really! But it's not bad at all, it's creepy in an absolutely effective way and sounds like a legitimate lullaby, but just ever so slightly off. It feels very similar to the classic "1-2 Freddy's coming for you" song from A Nightmare on Elm Street. Similarly to Freddy, it also seems to be about killing children, which is a pretty instant high ranking on the villainy score. The only thing keeping it from being a little higher is that it is a little vague about what exactly is happening. Is he just killing people? There's a hint of sadism in the "you will bring joy to the Nowhere King" line. Really doing a lot here with a fairly short song.
