When The Lights Go Out Lyrics - Oingo Boingo

When the lights go out, everybody has fun 

When the lights go out, everybody runs to a safe place 

When the lights go out, everybody's afraid 

When the lights go out, everybody starts to pray 

Starts to pray 

Monsters and madmen 

All come alive 

When the dead start walking there's no place to hide 

There's no place to hide, there's no place to hide 

Hey, let's turn the night into day 

Let's start a fire in an alley way 

Let's all go crazy by and by 

And let's all pray to the cat's eye 

No one can be trusted, when the lights go out 

People act real crazy, people start to shout 

People huddle together, try and hide their fear 

People party down by they ain't goin' nowhere 

They ain't goin' nowhere 

Gonna run outside 

What's there to see 

Just one big shadow there to comfort me 

There to comfort me, there to comfort me 

Hey, let's turn the night into day 

Let's start a fire in an alley way 

Let's all go crazy by and by 

And let's all pray to the cat's eye 

Just common folks like you and me 

Turn into mobs that get so crazy 

Prowl the streets like cats, out for the hunt 

Breaking all the windows just because it's fun 

Just because it's fun, just because it's fun 

Hey, let's turn the night into day 

Let's start a fire in an alley way 

Let's all go crazy by and by 

And let's all pray to the cat's eye 

Hey, let's turn the night into day 

Let's start a fire in an alley way 

Let's all go crazy by and by 

And let's all pray to the cat's eye 

Hey 

Hey 

Hey, oh yeah
