Black cat creeping

Through the night

Hunting hard while we are sleeping

I have to tell you

I dislike

Dislike the company you're keeping

Slink away and hope that we don't see

The latest victim squirming in your teeth

In your teeth

Black cat leaping

Out of sight

And out of mind you're surely keeping

The lowest profile

You're up all night

You even hide the fact you're sleeping

You're never even sorry for the pain

Inflicted on your victims – it's a shame

It's what you feel, what you don't feel.

Black cat moaning

Through the day

I cannot see why you're complaining

Need no money

Need no pay

Seems to me that life's plain sailing

Why d'you even bother coming here

Why do you pretend so hard to care

What do you fear

What do you fear

Black cat creeping

Through the night

Hunting hard while we are sleeping

I have to tell you

I still dislike

Dislike the company you're keeping

Slink away and hope that we don't see

The latest victim squirming in your teeth

In your teeth
