Bats In The Belfry

from From The Depths by Would-Be-Goods

/

lyrics

Bats are in the belfry

Screech owls in the hall

Through the shuttered windows

No light shows at all


Creatures of the night

Shun the sun’s fierce light

Hide themselves away

Till the end of day


Rustling in the ivy

On the garden walls

Someone’s in the orchard

Where the moonlight falls


Tell him you are here

Bid him to appear

Overcome your fear

Wait as he draws near


Floats above the ground

Moves without a sound

When he touches you

You can see right through his hand


Bats are in the belfry

Screech owls in the hall

Through the shuttered windows

No light shows at all


Creatures of the night

Shun the sun’s fierce light

Hide themselves away

Till the end of day
