I see a bad moon rising
I see trouble on the way
I see earthquakes and lighting
I see bad times today

Now, don't go 'round tonight
For it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise

I hear hurricanes a blowing
I know the end is coming soon
I fear the river's overflowing
I hear the voice of rage and ruin

Now, don't go 'round tonight
For it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise

I hope you have got your things together
Hope you are quite prepared to die
Looks like we're in for nasty weather
One eye is taken for an eye

Now, don't go 'round tonight
For it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise

Now, don't go 'round tonight
For it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
