lyrics

you wait like a vulture by the cemetery hill
and you're always hungry but you never get your fill
and if someone finds something to love
it's something you want

all the parents believe it's just stories and fairies
but the children they know
it's dark and it's scary and it's under the bed
it's up in the attic
it's a dirty little secret that won't stay in the closet

but you wait 'til you're too far gone
oh why you wait
why you wait so long

in the town the people don't want to see
but the dogs can smell it and it gives 'em the creeps
and they growl out a warning that says
that if I have to fight you, I'll fight to the death

and the teeth are bared and the hackels go up
and an ominous shadow passes over the sun
and all the good people cleared from the streets
they don't want to know
they choose not to believe

that you wait
'til it's too far gone
oh why you wait
why you wait so long
while you wait
time is moving on
oh while you wait
why you wait so long
