The dancing shadows in the candlelight, so clear

Creep slowly by the door.

Is it the wind, or someone knocking that you hear?

You’re really not so sure.

There’s someone staring through the crystal pane

Some sort of horror show

So as the story goes you hear the knock again.

It’s just a dream, you know.

Switch on your TV set, escaping from the dream

And to your knees you fall

You see your living-room reflected on the screen

And someone in the hall.

It’s so predictable you laugh until you scream

Now you’re a movie star.

Till something sinister removes you from the screen,

Carries you off afar.

Just so predictable you laugh until you scream

Somehow it feels like lead.

Suppose you might be dead.
