The Creeper

Oh, listen to my story
Life is getting stranger baby
As we travel on
People don't know the difference no more between right and
Wrong
Say it's going to be a cold dark night when the creeper comes
Along
Watch out for the steel blade, baby
All shiny and long
I say it's going to be a cold dark night
Oh, when the Creeper come along, yeah
He's tall, he's short, he's fat, he's thin
He's out for vengence. He's out to win
The road he walks is dark and dim
Don't let him catch you out on a limb
He'll cut your throat, baby
He'll stick you in the back
Drive off in your Cadillac
He's more trouble than you think
He'll kill you sugar, leave you in the drink
Say, it's going to be a cold dark night
Oh, when the creeper comes along
