 Lyrics:
 Night Prowler
 
 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
 Someone walks across your grave
 And you wish the sun would shine
 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
 
 CHORUS:
 I'm your Night Prowler, asleep in the day
 I'm your Night Prowler, get out of my way
 Look out for the Night Prowler, watch you tonight
 I'm the Night Prowler, when you turn out the light ...
 
 Too scared to turn your light out
 'Cos 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
 
 CHORUS
 
 Solo
 
 CHORUS
 
 I'm your Night Prowler, break down your door
 I'm your Night Prowler, crawling 'cross your floor
 I'm your Night Prowler, make a mess of you, yes I will
 Night Prowler, and I am telling this to you
 There ain't nothing you can do
 (Shazbot Nunu Nunu)
