The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You'd better run

you'd better hide

You'd better lock you house and keep the kids inside.

Here come the twentieth century's latest scam

he's a half a boy and half a ma)

He ain't a fool but he's a tool

Because his left don't know what his right hand's doin'.

He'd keep a King Kong eating out of the palm of his hand

Now he's a half a boy and half a man.

Or else the S.P.G. 's gonna clear the streets.

They never made no provision in the original plan for half a boy and half a man

Oh

when his fingers do the walking in the middle of the night.

When his people stalk in

baby

let me tell you

nothing comes out right.

Best be fleet up on your feet

. . .

Oh

when his fingers do the walking in the middle of the night

. . .

You'd better run

you'd better hide

. . .

He's a half a boy and half a man

he's a half a boy and half a man

He's a half a boy and half a man - come on.
