[Verse 1] Sun goes down, that's when we go out. Surfing in the moonlight, is what we're all about. No fires on the beach, we gotta see the stars. Glass in the sand. I've got too many scars. [Verse 2] The sharks think we're crazy, doing what we do. They're too afraid to bite us, the crabs are too. Moonlight on the wavetops leads us to the shore. We're living our story, chiropteran lore. [Prechorus] We dig the night, it's where we belong. The sunny boys hate us, but they got us wrong. [Chorus] The bats come out! We fly around! Zip here! Zap there! Chasing our prey. We come out after sunset, we sleep in the day. Bat Cave! Bat Cave! Bat cave! This is your warning! (This is your warning!) [Verse 3] We surf in the dark, way past two. We are the odd ones, only a few. When dawn is near, we shut it down. Pack it up! Singing our nocturnal song. [Prechorus] We dig the night, it's where we belong. The sunny boys hate us, but they got us wrong. [Chorus] The bats come out! We fly around! Zip here! Zap there! Chasing our prey. We come out after sunset, we sleep in the day. Bat Cave! Bat Cave! Bat cave! This is your warning! (This is your warning!) [Interlude: Beach drum solo. Tremolo guitar.] [Chorus: Louder, Stronger.] The bats come out! We fly around! Zip here! Zap there! Chasing our prey. We come out after sunset, we sleep in the day. Bat Cave! Bat Cave! Bat cave! This is your warning! (This is your warning!) [Outro] This is your warning! (Bat Cave! This is your warning!) This is your warning! (Bat Cave! This is your warning!) [Sustain on final chord with whammy bar.]
