When you come home from the dance 

Stand in the halls and make a romance 

When ya do the thing you shouldn't do 

(Peek-a-boo, a-watchin' you) 

When you ought to be in school 

Learning about the golden rule 

When ya tell a tale that isn't true 

(Peek-a-boo, a-watchin' you) 

Look in the dark 

You see my face 

(Aaaah!) 

Don't try to hide 

I'm e'rry place 

Very cool, hot and sweet 

I'm gonna give you, *hot feet 

Hope you heard the things I said 

Let it sink in your big hard head 

When you dance 

The soles right off your shoes 

(Peek-a-boo, I'm watchin' you) 

(Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha) 

(guitar & instrumental) 

Look in the dark 

You see my face 

(Oooow!) 

Don't try to hide 

I'm er'ry place 

Very cool, kind-a sweet 

I'm gonna give you, hot feet 

Hope you heard the things I said 

Let it sink in your big hard head 

When you dance 

The soles right off the shoes 

(Peek-a-boo, I'm watchin' you) 

Doin' the things you shouldn't do 

(Peek-a-boo, I'm watchin' you) 

Doin' the things you shouldn't do 

(Peek-a-boo, I'm watchin' you) 

FADES- 

Doin' the things you shouldn't do 

(Peek-a-boo, I'm watchin' you) 

Doin' the things you shouldn't do 

(Peek-a-boo, I'm watchin' you).
