sit down, listen now while the creepers scream and shout we’ve got it figured out, take it down we’re creeping just for fun, 'til the light of the morning Sun in the night we come undone, creeping on if you wanna feel that shady shake for real then crawl through the streets and do the creep with me you got it, kid, you’re gold you do the creep and you let 'em know tip-toe 'round the globe, creepy to the bone creeping just for fun, 'til the light of the morning Sun in the night you come undone, creep along if you wanna feel that shady shake for real just crawl through the streets, baby do the creep with me the old judge, he don’t like it now the police don’t like it now your mama, she don’t like it now just do the creep, kid, sing it loud in the street they don’t like it now on tv they don’t like it now in your dreams they don’t like it now but we’re gonna creep 'em out

Dismay 01:21
before I make my plea, just one more killing spree I’ll decimate the whole scene and leave you in a sea of red you’ll know I meant when I said it’s all for you I can make it go away, all the dismay and terrors of the day the city’s gonna pay and when I’m done and stained in red I’ll smile and take your hand in mine and say again it’s all for you

Lantern Man 02:24
oh won’t you console me so long I’ve been holding the fire, never asking why the bodies it claims, babe, are branded eternal in pain yet I am never made to find out how to turn myself around or put the fire down and snuff the embers out I’m cast with the hopeless the King of the souls that have lied to the face of Love & Light the horror of hubris, unshakeable weakness of mine that never begs I try to find out how to turn myself around or put the fire down and snuff the embers out
8.
wade slowly through the reeds I’ll follow you into the Autumn weather shake the branches on my tree I’ll fall to the ravine, we’ll float together and drift in the sound of winds that sweep around our heads in the clouds and our dreams beneath the ground Fall quickly to your knees help me hold my mind and heart together ‘cause I cannot help but feel my brain carried off just like a feather drifting in the sound of the winds that sweep around my head in the clouds and my dreams beneath the ground
9.
take me all the way, drive me down to New Orleans I met a girl in the night parade with violet charms on her golden face and she don’t seem to care about anything jazz band played the city square, Violet shaved off all her hair in roulette I bet off all our green, we skipped town in a limousine and I don’t seem to care, I’ve got days and nights to spare a madness fills the air, and we don’t seem to care about anything at all
10.
call it a day if you must, and I’ll try to keep the love I’ll try to keep up on my spinning ‘round like the Sun Old Moon Shadow sings your name just the same as the mourning crow caws at the break of day
