Creatures of the Night (feat. Martin Short)

At the edge of the world, in the dead of the night A lighthouse looms over the ocean And a body lies curled, such a sinister sight Guts and gore on the shore Nova Scotian Was that a blood-curdling cry, or the innocent sigh of a child? Well, it rattles your soul as the dark takes control It's enough to drive you wild When you're a creature of the night! All alone in the black, feel your sanity crack A creature of the night! Do your demons reside In the side that you hide from the light? You creature of the night In this eerie old lighthouse, thrashed by the tide Live triplets whose mother suspiciously died And suspects uncanny, a constable, a nanny Do they all have secrets to hide? As detective, my objective is following the clues Someone's tale is the truth, but I don't yet know whose Was the mother all there mentally? Died accidentally? Or is there a killer (is there a killer) I have to accuse? In the dark of the storm This light helps you steer I'm surrounded by shadows (surrounded by shadows) What monsters might appear? (What monsters might appear?) When you're a creature of the night In the bleak midnight rain, could you go so insane? A creature of the night! In the bone-chilling cold, as the madness takes hold See the blood drip, drip, drip while your grip starts to slip Do your demons reside In the side that you hide from the light? Are you a creature of the night? (Is it you? Is it you?) A creature of the night (Is it you? Is it true?) A creature of the night (At the edge of the world, a body lies curled) A creature of the night!
