Jethro Tull - Lights Out lyrics

Last light's out They're all abed And something's in my room Creeping down towards me on the wall Daddy said it's just some flickering Headlight through the gloom Making shapes through trees outside the hall But what the hell does he know? He doesn't feel the dread The cold restricting terror in the dark I've seen that silhouette before Something the newsman said Something about some monster in the park [Chorus:] It's you, you're the man on the TV screen It's you front page face of the dead Locked up in the light of day At night come out to play To terrorize me there above my bed The air is still and heavy now There's thunder in the sky He's dreaming up some message he can send I'm scared completely helpless And I think I'm going to cry Are grownups brave or do they just pretend? His face is growing clearer I can see his eyes glow red My teddy bear's the only friend I can feel The shadow's hand slips down the wall And touches Teddy's head I now suspect that shadow will touch me [Chorus:Repeat x2] It's you...
