THINGS THAT GO BUMP IN THE NIGHT

Often times things go bump in the night
We shake and tremble, filled with fright
Tiptoeing softly in search of the sound
Nerves on edge making our heart pound

Suddenly in the parlor, what did I hear
It sounded much like the scraping of...

Things That Go Bump In the Night
In tempestuous black the creatures glow
with eerie neon bright.
They whisper through the murky depths
and claim the frightful night.

Zombies and the other undead
gaze fiercely into the dark.
With willful aim and shattering thoughts
they leave their evil mark.

Then mistress hags upon their brooms
go floating tree to tree.
Perhaps they'll...

Things That Go Bump In the Night
As I was going to the loo, in the middle of the night,
I bumped into my husband, he gave me such a fright.
He was just standing there, with everything stuck out,
He looked so menacing, holy hell I gave a shout.
He just smiled at me, then...

Things That Go Bump In the Night
Things That Go Bump In The Night

Outside in the dead of night
In boxers, with a bat
Something gave the wife a fright
My guess, The neighbors cat

I'll just take a look around
I step onto the grass
Ocean breeze, plus cold wet ground
I'm freezing off my as*

Just three feet...

Things That Go Bump In the Night
Things go bump in the night,
I wake with a sudden fright.
I'm fast asleep in my bed,
when there's a noise in my head.
Sitting up with a bound,
ears straining to hear the sound.
What is it, I think,
boy, I need a drink.
Is it the cat,
or maybe it's a...

The Hump In the Dark That Goes Bump In the Night.
For all of my years I've been scarce in the light,
I'm the hump in the dark that goes bump in the night.
Fierce and cruel and evil am I,
there's deception, corruption and evil in my eye.
There's contempt, resent and bad intent in my heart.
And my haunting...

A Bump In the Night
A noise heard in the darkness

this new place she lived in creaked and groaned

this place she was hoping to call home

first week of living alone

since the end of her marriage

and the broken heart pain she now carried with her.

She go up out out of her...

Bump In the Night
From the cemetery no specters arose
Why the teens then took flight, they did not disclose
What had incurred
Not seen, but heard
Discovered, because of the caws of the crows!...

Bump In the Night
I heard a bump in the night
My skin is crawling, a fearful fright
Will it claw, will it bite
Can I make it to the light

It must be a ferocious beast
A ghoulish monster at least
He wants me to be his next feast
I'll soon be among the deceased

I...

Bump In the Night
Paralyzing uncertainty 
Of things we haven't seen
Shadows of unknown origins
That invade our very dreams

Sometimes, it's the sounds
That go bump in the night
It hijacks our minds  
And fills our hearts with fright

Imaginations run wild
As we shiver and we shake
Our voice has betrayed us
Not a sound...
