Somewhere a clock strikes midnight
And there's a full Moon in the sky
You hear a dog bark in the distance
You hear someone's baby cry

A rat runs down the alley
And a chill runs down your spine
And someone walks across your grave
And you wish the Sun would shine
'Cause no one's gonna warn you
And no one's gonna yell: Attack
And you don't feel the steel
Till it's hanging out your back

I'm your night (night) prowler, asleep in the day
Night (night) prowler, get out of my way
Yeah, I'm your night (night) prowler, watch you tonight
Yes, I'm your night (night) prowler, when you turn out the light

Too scared to turn your light out
'Cause there's something on your mind
Was that a noise outside your window?
What's that shadow on the blind?
As you lie there naked
Like a body in a tomb
Suspended animation
As I slip into your room

I'm your night (night) prowler, asleep in the day
Yeah, I'm your night (night) prowler, get out of my way
Look out on the night (night) prowler, watch you tonight
Yes, I'm your night (night) prowler, when you turn out the light

I'm your night (night) prowler, asleep in the day
Yes, I'm your night (night) prowler, get out of my way
Look out on the night (night) prowler, watch you tonight
Yes, I'm your night (night) prowler, when you turn out the light

I'm your night (night) prowler, break down your door
I'm your night (night) prowler, crawling 'cross your floor
I'm your night (night) prowler, make a mess of you, yes I will
Night prowler, and I am telling this to you
There ain't nothing, there ain't nothing, there ain't nothing you can do
