| Somewhere a clock strikes midnight
|
| And there’s a full moon in the sky
|
| You hear a dog bark in the distance
|
| You hear someone’s baby cry
|
| A rat runs down the alley
|
| And a chill runs down your spine
|
| And someone walks across your grave
|
| And you wish the sun would shine
|
| 'Cause no one’s going to warn you
|
| And no one’s going to yell, «Attack!»
|
| And you don’t feel the steel
|
| Till it’s hanging out your back
|
| I’m your night prowler (I sleep in the day)
|
| I’m your night prowler (get out of my way)
|
| Yeah, I’m the night prowler (watch you tonight)
|
| Yes, I’m the night prowler, when you turn out the light
|
| Too scared to turn your light out
|
| 'Cause there’s something on your mind
|
| Was that a noise outside the window?
|
| What’s that shadow on the blind?
|
| As you lie there naked
|
| Like a body in a tomb
|
| Suspended animation
|
| As I slip into your room
|
| I’m your night prowler (break down your door)
|
| I’m your night prowler (crawlin' 'cross your floor)
|
| I’m the night prowler (make a mess of you) Yes, I will
|
| Night prowler
|
| And I’m tellin' this to you
|
| There ain’t nothin', there ain’t nothin'
|
| Nothin' you can do
|
| «Shazbot, nanu nanu» |
