Eye Of The Zombie

Hoo! Oooooh!
Shadows on the mountain,
And the night begins to fall;
Gather up the children,
'Fore the darkness takes us all.
Tribe has come together,
Standin' naked against the night;
Twenty feet from the fire,
The evil waits with zombie eyes.
Chorus:
Eye-eye-eye eye of the Zombie!
Eye-eye-eye eye of the Zombie!
Oh! Sneakin' through the long grass
On leopard feet silently,
A beast already dead comes
To join the dance on the zombie.
Ooh! Time has come again
Again the moment of truth;
The terror is at hand,
And there's nothin' you can do.
[Chorus]
Oh! Hoo! Aaa-aah! Hoo! Aaa-aaa-aaaah!
From out of nowhere he's there,
Flashing hideous teeth,
Panic in the crowd,
Helter-skelter,
We're brought to our knees.
Back to the darkness,
Back on the mountain he stands,
You can't fight a shadow,
You can't kill a dead man.
[Chorus x4]
