Lyrics (Starring Wolfy) [Intro] [Low, rumble-growl from Wolfy] [Heavy slap bass with slurring brass section] [Wolfy - Spoken, deep gravel voice] Yeah... turn them lights down low, boys... When the full moon hits the pavement... the street belongs to me. [Low baritone howl] Aoo-oo-ooww... [Verse 1] [Wolfy - Deep sub-bass vocal] Midnight rolls around on 5th and Main Cold mist fallin' like a silver chain A dapper young cat in a pinstripe coat Got a dark arrangement in his velvet throat He stepped out the club, took a drag from a smoke Left the local boys thinkin' it was all a joke! [Growl] Heheh... no joke, brother. Then my knuckles hit the concrete, coat split wide... And I showed the dark street what I keep inside! [Chorus] [Wolfy - Booming bass-baritone with growl] [Driven, syncopated swing] I’m the Lycan on the Loose! Better step aside! Got a date with the night on a midnight ride! Sharp set of choppers and a wicked ol' grin When the full moon shines, let the trouble begin! [Full throat howl] HOO-O-O-OWL at the streetlamp light! The Wolfman’s makin' a scene tonight! [Verse 2] [Wolfy - Gravelly rhythm delivery] I strolled into the joint with a wolfish grin Scared the whole brass band right out of their skin! Tipped my torn fedora to the girl at the bar— [Gravelly laugh] Heh-heh-heh! While the sax player fainted on his own guitar! Don't want your money, don't want your cash— Just came to the cellar for a graveyard bash! Hit the dance floor with a prowl and a stride, And the whole room scattered to the alley outside! [Chorus] [Wolfy - Lead vocals with backing vocal call-and-response] I’m the Lycan on the Loose! (Step aside!) Got a date with the night on a midnight ride! Sharp set of choppers and a wicked ol' grin When the full moon shines, let the trouble begin! [Full throat howl] HOO-O-O-OWL at the streetlamp light! The Wolfman’s makin' a scene tonight! [Instrumental Breakdown] [Solo muted trumpet imitating Wolfy's howl] [Slap bass solo with syncopated woodblock] [Wolfy growling and rhythmically panting in background] Grrr... yeah... dig that beat, ghost-boy! [Verse 3] [Wolfy - Dark, low-register storytelling] The sirens started wailin' from down the block As the clock struck three on the city clock... I buttoned up my jacket, smoothed back my mane... And melted like smoke right down the drain! [Final Chorus] [Wolfy - Peak vocal intensity, maximum growl] I’m the Lycan on the Loose! Better step aside! Got a date with the night on a midnight ride! Sharp set of choppers and a wicked ol' grin When the full moon shines, let the trouble begin! [Extended, soaring howl] HOO-O-O-OWWWWW-L at the streetlamp light! The Wolfman’s makin' a scene tonight! [Outro] [Wolfy - Deep spoken rumbling fadeout] So lock up your doors... pull the window shade tight... Unless you want a ticket to the show tonight. Yeah... Wolfy’s in the house. [Low, deep guttural howl fading into final big band chord] Aoo-oo-ooww... [Final rimshot and bass thud]
