I think this song has a lot of meaning, even though it seems that the artist didn't intend it to be so.
The doll could resemble his conscience. It always follows him, nagging at him until it annoys the crap outta him. He tries to get rid of it (box in the fireplace), but he can't, because it's him.
You make a good point. Maynard James Keenan (singer/songwriter) always said it's important to find your own meaning in songs. That's why he never told his fans what his songs were about. I think this song is just poking fun at horror movies. I love how unique it is from his other songs, it might be my favorite. I also love how it sounds like a theme to a horror movie (the eerie nursery-rhyme-like tune with a heavy chorus).
