Lyrics:

Night Prowler



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

Someone walks across your grave

And you wish the sun would shine

No one's gonna warn you

And no one's gonna yell 'Attack'

And you don't feel the steel

Till it's hanging out your back



CHORUS:

I'm your Night Prowler, asleep in the day

I'm your Night Prowler, get out of my way

Look out for the Night Prowler, watch you tonight

I'm the Night Prowler, when you turn out the light ...



Too scared to turn your light out

'Cos there's something on your mind

Was that a noise outside your 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



CHORUS



Solo



CHORUS



I'm your Night Prowler, break down your door

I'm your Night Prowler, crawling 'cross your floor

I'm your Night Prowler, make a mess of you, yes I will

Night Prowler, and I am telling this to you

There ain't nothing you can do

(Shazbot Nunu Nunu)
