Not a violent person, even heavens do get scared,
|
Lightning strikes around my heart, somethings coming near,
|
Never loved a soldier-man in a mail-man uniform,
|
Catch a burglar in my arms, has tipped off my alarm.
|
|
Man around the house,
|
Man around the house.
|
|
Listen to the music, to distract me from my fears,
|
Then I feel a sudden rush, and the lights dissapear,
|
Never loved a fisher-man in a police uniform,
|
Catch a burglar in my arms, has tipped off my alarm.
|
|
Man around the house,
|
Man around the house.
|
|
Like a reacurring dream, thats goin' round my head,
|
Guess I need security, when I'm sleepin' in my bed,
|
Never loved a fisher-man in a mail-man uniform,
|
Catch a burglar in my arms, has tipped off my alarm.
|
|
Man around the house, be a perfect solution,
|
Man around the house, he aint' my husband.
|
|
Call the police,
|
Your'e bigger than I am, shit,
|
The telephone, call the God-damn police,
|
What'd ya' mean your'e scared?
|
I'm scared too, I'm not goin' down there!
|
Uh-uh, I'm stayin' right here,I'm gonna lock my door,
|
Don't turn on the lights, God, don't turn on the lights!
|
He might see us, you can't go out there with no clothes on,
|
Are you crazy, put some clothes on, don't be a fool, coward!
|
I'm not scared, he's not gonna' catch me in here without any clothes on,
|
I'm gonna put on my clothes, do you have a flash light?
|
Where's the flash light? Turn the lights on, I need a flash light,
|
He's tryin' the back door, sshhh!
