Dick Valentine - Mr. Shadow lyrics

Mr. Shadow Ever since you were a boy You walked the earth In search of every ounce Of daylight that you could destroy And I feel you When I push people down the stairs I like the small fleet of power that I feel When I catch them unawares Dreams come and dreams go But there's just one nightmare It's the one where all the winds blow And there's fiery ash in the air And Mr. Shadow's always there Behind every dark curtain And every dying tree He's in the final breath you take When you're drowning in the lake because of me And he hides He hides in broad daylight And if you stare directly into him He'll surely play a trick upon your sight Whoa whoa ohh Daylight comes And daylight goes And if you know what the hangman knows You know that d**h is everywhere And Mr. Shadow doesn't care Mr. Shadow doesn't care Human rights and celebrities Can't do anything to stop him When he goes to take his bites out of you and me Mr. Shadow Tell me now is it true You give us six more weeks of sorrow When some Punxsutawney dog sees you
