The Babadook takes advantage of vulnerability, seizing every opportunity.
The Babadook burn him down I need a match
Expresses a desire to eradicate the Babadook, possibly by confronting or destroying it.
The Babadook thin air struggling to grasp
Struggling to comprehend the intangible, elusive nature of the Babadook.
The Babadook can't breathe I gulp and I gasp
Feeling suffocated or restricted, as if unable to escape the influence of the Babadook.
The Babadook can't see a face behind the mask
Sense of being unable to discern the true nature or intentions of the Babadook.
The Babadook takes it all no need to ask
The Babadook takes without permission or hesitation.
The Babadook he's peckish my fear is his fetish
The Babadook thrives on the fear it instills in the individual.
So where is the button to disable the menace
Desire to find a way to deactivate or eliminate the Babadook's influence.
Now I can't escape not to Memphis nor Venice
Feeling trapped or unable to escape, regardless of the destination.
Going back and forth like the table the tennis
A comparison drawn between the back-and-forth struggle and the constant motion in a tennis match.

The Babadook calling when I'm trying to sleep

The Babadook waiting for my soul to reap
The Babadook patiently waits for the individual's downfall or demise.
The Babadook telling me that there isn't any point
The Babadook instills a sense of hopelessness or futility in one's actions.
Comes running and gunning if I light up a joint
The Babadook intensifies its presence when attempting to seek solace or relaxation through substance use.
He's the chief he's the boss, the one who self appoints
Portrays the Babadook as an authoritative figure, self-appointed and in control.
The only way is down his finger he points
