A bogeyman (also spelled bogieman, boogeyman or boogieman) is an amorphous imaginary being used by adults to frighten children into compliant behaviour. The monster has no specific appearance, and conceptions about it can vary drastically from household to household within the same community; in many cases, he has no set appearance in the mind of an adult or child, but is simply a non-specific embodiment of terror. Parents may tell their children that if they misbehave, the bogeyman will get them. Bogeymen may target a specific mischief — for instance, a bogeyman that punishes children who suck their thumbs — or general misbehavior, depending on what purpose needs serving. In some cases, the bogeyman is a nickname for the devil.
Bogeyman tales vary by region. The bogeyman may be any gender or simply asexual.
In some Midwestern states of the United States, the bogeyman scratches at the window. In the Pacific Northwest, he may manifest in "green frog". In other places, he hides or appears from under the bed or in the closet and tickles children when they go to sleep at night. It is said that a wart can be transmitted to someone by the bogeyman.
KC and the Sunshine Band is an American musical group. Founded in 1973 in Miami, Florida, their style has included funk, R&B, and disco. Their most well known songs include the disco hits "That's the Way (I Like It)", "(Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty", "I'm Your Boogie Man", "Keep It Comin' Love", "Get Down Tonight", "Give It Up", and "Please Don't Go". They took their name from lead vocalist Harry Wayne Casey's last name ("KC") and the "Sunshine Band" from KC's home state of Florida ('The Sunshine State').
The group was formed in 1973 by Harry Wayne Casey (KC), a record store employee and part-timer at TK Records in Miami. KC originally called the band KC & The Sunshine Junkanoo Band, as he used studio musicians from TK and a local Junkanoo band called the Miami Junkanoo Band. He was then introduced to Richard Finch, who was doing engineering work on records for TK. This was the beginning of the Casey-Finch musical collaboration. The initial members were just Casey and Finch, but they soon added guitarist Jerome Smith (June 18, 1953 - July 28, 2000) and drummer Robert Johnson, both TK studio musicians.

Plot: A boy sleeps restlessly in bed, his thoughts, memories, and fears too vibrant to give him a moment's peace. Over the course of a single night, his mind drifts from the monster under the bed, to the boogie man in the closet, to the tests, bullies and stresses of high school. And always, his mind drifts back to Jo, the girl that smiles at him in the hall... And it is in this playing ground of the mind where a transition must take place, and the fears of a child will pale next to the terror of the adult world.

Genres: Comedy,It's not me, it's my disease
What you think ain't what you feel
So if I please you
Then please please me
And I'll let you smoke my apathy
Devil staring at your tits
And I'm the whiskey on your lips
You're the joke that makes me laugh
You're the angel on my back
Yeah, yeah, oh oh yeah
Yeah, yeah, oh oh yeah
I sent your mommy back to bed
And I dropped your daddy on his head
Made your sister run away
And I fucked your brother, turned him gay
No one here but you and me
No one here to hear you scream
So let me help you with your pants
Let me see your boogie dance
Yeah, yeah, oh oh yeah
Yeah, yeah, oh oh yeah
