[Verse 1] Stumble on to the pavement, they're strapped tight to bed They've got a fetish for sheep, straitjacket sheets But I've got Randy Newman in my head This is no corn-fed day, it's gloomy, blue, and cold So let the muggings occur, I feel secure They say that I'm peculiar, but [Chorus] Oh, I don't know, I don't care I'll be waiting for you there Crave this chill, bathe in black All the ghouls and fiends attack Knees go weak, and I swoon, underneath the pallid moon Praise the night, and praise the night The only time I feel alright [Verse 2] Under the sun god's stare, I wince and blossom hives Counting the fractions of day, rotting away As businessmen just drink away their lives
But when the stars once shy come bloom and blanket earth I feel beloved and blessed, quite Byron-esque The need to just get off my chest that [Chorus] Oh, I don't know, I don't care I'll be waiting for you there Crave this chill, bathe in black All the ghouls and fiends attack Knees go weak, and I swoon, underneath the pallid moon Praise the night, and praise the night The only time I feel alright Oh, I don't know, I don't care I'll be waiting for you there Crave this chill, bathe in black All the ghouls and fiends attack Knees go weak, and I swoon, underneath the pallid moon Praise the night, and praise the night The only time I feel alright [Outro]
