From out of the night a cry from far below the streets Deep in the heart of the city An underground world remains to be unknown Don't expect it to be very pretty Can't walk the streets at night untested, don't walk along You never know what lurks behind Some night you might just meet the creeper Better beware the creeper seems to read your mind You're on your way home, you're starting to unwind From a day of tension and strain You ask yourself why you're not alone tonight Now you're starting to feel very strange Don't overlook the unexpected, can't understand Something's in the air tonight You feel the presence of the creeper Losing your nerve, you can't escape the sudden fright You're not laughing Trapped in an alley, only one way out Now you see what you've done to yourself You're coming unglued, got your back to the wall Could this be an illusion so tell There's something creeping down the alley Don't make a sound, your heart is beating like a drum Trapped like a rat, God only knows, what fate awaits you Needless to say you only wish that you had run The time has come to meet the creeper Bigger than life as he appears with eyes of fire Prince of the night, now there's a shadow cast upon you Fear for your life, he gives and takes what he desires
