When the lights go out Everybody has fun, baby, baby, baby When the lights go out Everybody runs to a safe place When the lights go out Everybody's afraid When the lights go out Everybody starts to pray Starts to pray.... Monsters and madmen All come alive When the dead start walking There's no place to hide There's no place to hide Hey—let's turn the night into day Let's start a fire in an alleyway Let's all go crazy by and by And let's all pray to the cat's eye No one can be trusted when the lights go out People act real crazy; people start to shout People huddle together; try and hide their fear People party down, but they ain't goin' nowhere They ain't goin' nowhere Gonna run outside What's there to see? Just one big shadow there to comfort me There to comfort me...there to comfort me Hey—let's turn the night into day Let's start a fire in an alleyway Let's all go crazy by and by And let's all pray to the cat's eye Just common folks, like you and me Turn into mobs that get so crazy Prowl the streets like cats Out for the hunt Breaking all the windows, just because it's fun Just because it's fun, just because it's fun Hey—let's turn the night into day Let's start a fire in an alleyway Let's all go crazy by and by And let's all pray to the cat's eye
