Nightstalker (Intro) (A heavy, ominous synthesizer chord fades in, followed by a crisp, mechanical 80s drum beat and a pulsing synth bassline. A retro synth brass hook plays the main melody.) (Spoken word whispering): "When the streetlights flicker... the night belongs to them." (Verse 1) The digital clock strikes a quarter to three A cold purple mist is locking down the street You look at your shadow, it’s pulling away No sun in this town to turn the night into day You hear a low hum from a broken neon sign You’re running out of breath, you’re running out of time (Pre-Chorus) And the synthesizers wail Turning your warm skin ghostly pale You try to break the spell Underneath the radar where the monsters dwell (Ow!) – There’s nowhere left to hide Step into the dark side! (Chorus) 'Cause it’s a neon nightmare tonight Creatures of the rhythm dancing out of the light! They hit the floor, they’re coming for you Underneath the lasers in a midnight blue Yeah, it’s a neon nightmare tonight And no one’s gonna save you from the electronic fright! (Hee-hee! / Shamone!) (Verse 2) Chrome-plated zombies are blocking the road Your heartbeat is overloading the code Electric eyes glowing bright in the dark They target your soul, they’re missing no mark You want to scream out but the frequency’s dead Just simulated terror spinning round in your head (Pre-Chorus) And the synthesizers wail Turning your warm skin ghostly pale You try to break the spell Underneath the radar where the monsters dwell (Ooh!) – There’s nowhere left to hide Step into the dark side! (Chorus) 'Cause it’s a neon nightmare tonight Creatures of the rhythm dancing out of the light! They hit the floor, they’re coming for you Underneath the lasers in a midnight blue Yeah, it’s a neon nightmare tonight And no one’s gonna save you from the electronic fright! (Bridge / Vincent Price Style Monologue) (The beat drops out, leaving only an eerie, sweeping synthesizer pad and a ticking electronic clock) "Darkness falls across the cyber-dome The midnight hour is calling you home For whosoever shall dance this beat Must join the undead on the neon street..." (A massive 80s synth-brass explosion explodes as the driving beat returns for a blazing synthesizer solo!) (Outro) (The synth solo transitions into a repeating funk-synth groove, fading out slowly) Neon nightmare... (Ghoulish backing vocals: "In the night...") They’re watching you. They’re behind you. (Evil, echoing laugh fading out over a sharp synthesizer stab)
