[Verse 1] I am the terror that flaps in the night! An accidental, mutinous mistake. Gripped the Pillow, Wrecked in Stockings I came in sideways, I came in loud Feathers all bent, but I still got proud Try to lock me out, I’ll shake the frame Call my name once, I’ll answer the flame [Pre-Chorus] Oh, you know I’m trouble Oh, you know I’m near One wrong move and the whole room hears [Chorus] Flaps in the night Flaps in the night I’m the one you can’t untie Flaps in the night Flaps in the night Laughing while the moon goes by (Flaps in the night) [Verse 2] I left a mess on the velvet chair Left my grin in the midnight air All tight-lipped plans, I tore them clean One small glitch in a velvet dream You hear that rustle behind the door? That’s my name and a little more Gripped the Pillow, Wrecked in Stockings Still I land like I meant the shocking [Pre-Chorus] Oh, you know I’m trouble Oh, you know I’m near One wrong move and the whole room hears [Chorus] Flaps in the night Flaps in the night I’m the one you can’t untie Flaps in the night Flaps in the night Laughing while the moon goes by (Flaps in the night) [Bridge] Say I’m a mess, say I’m a mark Still I glow when the room turns dark Accidental, mutinous, wild Wrong on paper, perfect in style [Final Chorus] Flaps in the night Flaps in the night I’m the one you can’t untie Flaps in the night Flaps in the night Laughing while the moon goes by Flaps in the night Flaps in the night Gripped the Pillow, Wrecked in Stockings (Flaps in the night)
