[Intro - three very low male voices, no instruments] Low low low Mist in the valley low Go go go There they go go go Low-low down below Low-low cold white glow [deep percussion enters] [Voice 1] White moon cold road [Voices 2 + 3] Road road road [Voice 1] Tyre smoke cold stone [Voices 2 + 3] Smoke smoke smoke [All] Slow slow slow [beat drops] [Verse 1 - deep baritone] Mist in the valley white moon on the road Tyre smoke curling cold wind cold stone Headlights sliding silver and slow Black road shining [voices] Go go go [Lead] Screech through the gorge [voices] Round round round [Lead] Engine rising from below [voices] Low low low [Lead] Behind locked doors not a word not a sound Only that screaming [All] Coming round round round [Chorus - full low male harmony] Zombies in the neighbourhood Low low low Down where the mist and the tyre smoke flow Go go go Round through the gorge under cold white glow Zombies in the neighbourhood There they go [Vocal break] White light cold night Tyres bite out of sight Round-round-round Smoke below Go-go-go There they go [Verse 2 - baritone with sparse responses] White lights slide through the silver night Glide on the walls silver white Tyres bite engines rise Smoke rolls thick under silver skies One black circle another beside Burned in the road black on white Donuts turning through the silver night Round and round [voices] Out of sight [everything suddenly drops out] [Middle section - one dry, very deep male voice] Morning Mist lifts Road Black halos Rubber One tyre blown [second voice, distant] No footprints [third voice, distant] No bodies [all three, quietly] Nothing known [silence] [one dry male voice] Sustained loss of traction [long pause] [very soft low pulse] Low low low [second voice] Down below [third voice] Cold white glow [one voice] Where did they go? [Final Chorus - full voices return, wider and slower] Zombies in the neighbourhood Low low low Down where the mist and the tyre smoke flow Go go go White moon fading cold wind blows Round through the gorge Where did they go? [brief silence] Zombies in the neighbourhood [one voice] Probably [second voice, lower] Probably [deep final voice] Low.
