Peter and the Wolf

I could hear that bass two blocks away

Blowing through the southern wind

And it got dark in the strangest way

Slowly, slowly came this way

Like nighttime moves through the trees

Something about the way the metal sways

You can't move, you can't leave

I see two bright eyes shining in the night

Something in the street staring back at me

I see the shimmering lights

Shaking all the homes from the afterlife

Made out of silver chrome

And I swear, I see a ghost dance, dancing in the headlights

At the same time as the bass line

And the whole damn world starts to shiver at the same time

As the bass line, you know it's nighttime

Six tinted windows and pearly white teeth

I guess you're the wolf, and Peter is me

She lives in a lake of emerald green

She strangely spoke French to me

From the willow to the crows and everything that grows

Every, everybody knows

She's the queen of everything

She said, "Viens, viens ici

Je mange ton cœur, je te mange toi whole

Je mange la vie, je mange la mort"

Something's in the woods again

And that something's wicked, but it feels good

Everybody knows

She said, "Shush now," with a wicked look

Six tinted windows and pearly white teeth

I guess you're the wolf, and Peter is me

I could hear that bass two blocks away

Something's in the woods again

I could hear that bass two blocks away

Something's blowing in the southern wind

And I swear, I see a ghost dancing in the headlights

At the same time as the bass line
