vampires grow in the cold and dark places
everyone knows
everyone knows
vampires don't brandish those old fashioned weapons neither do i, and neither should you
when it's lights out, it's lights out
long fingers hope you'll walk by and won't see them
grabbed like a ghost from the most open spaces
standing a chance hinges on good hiding
keeping away, keeping away
i did just as i was told
oh no, i got such a scold
for crying out loud
for crying out loud
vampires lurk between shelves at libraries, schools, and cafes
taking their pick, sneaking out of back alleys, pale as the sky
when it's lights out, it's lights out
if you do what you're told
you'll be such a sorry soul
for going downtown
for going downtown
just stay inside my dear because there may be vampires near
everyone knows
everyone knows
everyone knows
vampires grow in the cold
