Billy Idol - Body Snatcher lyrics

rate me

(Billy Idol/Steve Stevens) Full moon glow Steals the light When headless horsemen ride In the distance hellhounds cry And banshee wails arise Turn your fear into fantasy Concealing all the pain You the victim of perfection The dark side gets its way The dark side gets its way Ain't no use singing the blues Ain't to one finding no clues And you can't walk away No stopping, no escape [Chorus:] Tired eyes you cannot fight The body snatcher comes tonight Wired mind embraced the sight The body snatcher comes tonight Creeping shadows cross the walls What are they trying to say? Lucy Love died in this place I've come to take you away Turn the spirit when you sleep And leave an empty space I'm the demon of destruction The gods have now been swayed The gods have now been swayed Ain't no use singing the blues Ain't no one finding no clues And you can't walk away No stopping, no escape [Chorus] Well you cannot run you cannot hide 'Cos evil has its dark design You cannot run you cannot hide 'Cos evil has its dark design I have reason to believe There's power in the signs Look she turns ghostly grey The dark one has arrived [Chorus] Well you cannot run you cannot hide 'Cos evil has its dark design The body snatcher comes tonight Yeah yeah yeah Yeah you cannot run you cannot hide Cos evil has its dark design The body snatcher comes tonight Ain't to use singing the blues Ain't no one finding no clues And you can't walk away No stopping, no escape
