Lyrics Dick Valentine - Mr. Shadow

Mr. Shadow,
Ever since you were a boy
You walked the earth in search of every ounce of Daylight that you could destroy

And I feel you,
When I push people down the stairs,
I like the small fleeting power that I feel when
I catch them unawares
Oh-woah-oh!

Dreams come and dreams go,
But there's just one nightmare,
It's the one where all the winds blow,
And there's fiery ash in the air
And Mr. Shadow's always there,
Mr. Shadow's always there
Oooh Ooh Ooh
Oooh Ooh Ooh

Behind every dark curtain
And every dying tree,
He's in the final breaths you take when you're Drowning in the lake because of me

And he hides,
He hides in broad daylight,
And if you stare directly into him he'll surely Play a trick upon your sight
Oh woah oh!

Daylight comes and daylight goes,
But it's always dark somewhere,
And if you know what the hangman knows,
You know that death is everywhere
And Mr. Shadow doesn't care,
Mr. Shadow doesn't care

Human rights and celebrities
Can't do anything to stop him
When he goes to take
His bites out of you and me

Oooh Oooh

Mr. Shadow,
Tell me now is it true ‒
You give us six more weeks of sorrow
When some Punxsutawney dog sees you?
Yeah!
