verse 1: Stumble on to the pavement; they're strapped tight to bed They've got a fetish for sheep, straitjacket sheets But I've got Randy Newman in my head This is no corn-fed day, it's gloomy, blue, and cold So let the muggings occur, I feel secure They say that I'm peculiar But oh I don't know, I don't care, I'll be waiting for you there Crave this chill, bathe in black, All the ghouls and fiends attack Knees go weak, and I swoon, underneath the pallet moon Praise the night, and praise the night. The only time I feel alright verse 2: Under the sun gods stare, I wince and blossom hives Counting the fractions of day, rotting away As businessmen just drink away their eyes But when the stars once shy, come bloom and blanket earth I feel beloved and blessed, quite Byron-esque The need to just get off my chest that, oh But oh I don't know, I don't care, I'll be waiting for you there Crave this chill, bathe in black, All the ghouls and fiends attack Knees go weak, and I swoon, underneath the pallet moon Praise the night, and praise the night. The only time I feel alright But oh I don't know, I don't care, I'll be waiting for you there Crave this chill, bathe in black, All the ghouls and fiends attack Knees go weak, and I swoon, underneath the pallet moon Praise the night, and praise the night. The only time I feel alright OUTRO: basically repeat this until the end: e|----------| B|----------| G|----------| D|---1---4--| A|-2---2----| E|----------| End on
