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 gonna warn you And no one's gonna yell attack And you don't feel the steel Till it's hangin' out your back
I'm your night prowler, asleep in the day I'm your night prowler, get outta my way I'm the night prowler, watch out tonight Yes I'm your night prowler, When you turn out the light
Too scared to turn your light out Cause there's somethin' 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
