A mysterious package arrived at my door
Inside was a game I'd never heard of before
It looked pretty dated, but since it was free
I booted up my ancient Hewlett Packard PC
I put in the disc
It started to run
Then braced myself for educational fun
"Welcome to Baldi's Basics
In education and learning"
All I need is seven notebooks
To break out of this game
Trapped inside of Baldi's Basics
And Baldi's pretty unnerving
"I hear every door you open"
I dared not doubt his claim
3

I found the next notebook
On a desk before long
"I get more angry each time you answer wrong"
The numbers were jumbled, indiscernibly math
I knew from the smacking,
I'd incurred Baldi's wrath
Out in the hall, I heard a loud crack
Baldi was there, and he was on the attack
Can't escape from Baldi's Basics
I can't get past, it's a bully
"Gonna take a piece of your candy"
Now I'm as good as dead
Let me out of Baldi's Basics
For love of all that is holy
Should've lit this game on fire
And gone right back to bed
"I am coming! I see you!"
What the fudge does this thing do?
It closed in fast and cornered me
"I'll hug you for eternity!"
A student named Play Time appeared in my way
She pulled our her jump rope and said,
"Let's play!"
I tried to escape,
But Baldi burst through the door
So, I began skipping rope
As I had never before
One, two
Oops, you messed up!
One, two
Oops, you messed up!
One, two, three, four
Oh, that makes me sad
"It's sweepin' time!"
I ran like the wind,
And heard the Principal call
As I dashed through the doorway
"No running in the halls"
Finger was pointed,
His expression quite stern
"Detention for you",
He said
"When will you learn?"
The timer ticked down
The smacking drew near
Two seconds more before Baldi'd be here
Out of time in Baldi's Basics
And Baldi's one step behind me
Only missing one more notebook
But sweeping time appeared
No way out of Baldi's Basics
And Baldi's certain to find me
Can't escape, or use the soda
And there ain't no notebook here
