Tales of fright in the dark of night

Monster movies in black and white

It gives me thrills when I get the chills

From sci-fi/horror night double bills



Universal or R.K.O.

You can find me sitting in the front row

I just can't wait

For the midnight picture show



I can't wait to go there tonight

The clock is ticking

But I'm still burning the daylight

I'm gonna make sure everything's right

When I go there tonight



For a matinee fee what I wanna see

Is the creature fighting dracula in 3-D

The crawling hand of Charlie Chan

Or the Mummy meets the invisible man



Universal or R.K.O.

You can find me sitting in the front row

I just can't wait

For the midnight picture show



I can't wait to go there tonight

The clock is ticking

But I'm still burning the daylight

I'm gonna make sure everything's right

When I go there tonight



There in a darkened room

The silver screen will shine

Stars of a bygone age

Come back to play one last time



I can't wait to go there tonight

The clock is ticking

But I'm still burning the daylight

I'm gonna make sure everything's right

When I go there tonight
