Late, sometime before midnight

He comes creeping up

And before you get him sussed

He's gone before dusk



And when you arise

Red ruby rings circle your eyes

If it's later than you realized

Check with the stars and the skies



Old moon madness has struck again



A howl in the dark light

A flash of teeth bright white

A scream and a bite

Old moon madness has struck again tonight



But there's no need to worry

For the crimes that you've done

Worse has been committed

With no moon madness to blame it on



Old moon madness has struck again



In fact you could say you're lucky

You and me

Mother Earth has only one moon

And not three
