Night has come early in these parts
Shadows extend like tendrils from every corner
Spiders skittle and scrawl the veranda
And a cloud of dreams spin like a black tornado
C’mon and gimme shelter
C’mon and gimme shelter
C’mon and gimme shelter
From this world
Here comes old Latin Laughing Larry
Tells he’s got one, got one for the ages
Well, you can lead any old fool to water
But you can’t, you can’t make him think
I need ya to stand by me
Even when you don’t even wanna
I need ya to just love me
The way the flora love the fauna
It’s a busman’s, it’s a busman’s holiday
And there is dancing, dancing out in the streets
Yet no one seems to know the steps
And the atmosphere is a rusty nail
