8 O'Clock Witch Lyrics

I sense the moonlight that shines through my window
I can’t fall asleep, seek comfort in my pillow
I am so afraid to open my eyes
All beasts of night gather, as trees disguised
Their branches are grasping for my life
It is 8 o’clock, the witch arrives
I hear her silent steps ‘pon the staircase
Pretend dead, I don’t want to see his face

No one alive saw her when she was near
But all can tell of that smell of fear
When her presence filled the room
If caught not asleep
They would have met their doom
If not asleep you will meet your doom
Now meet your doom

The moon is still shining through my window
I didn’t fall asleep, no comfort in my pillow
I’m so afraid I haven’t opened up my eyes
I just want to survive this witch tonight
I wanna survive this night!
The 8 o’clock witch, disciple of bedtime
The 8 o’clock witch, she draws the line
A line you shouldn’t cross,
‘cos if you would your life is lost
Oh your life is lost
The Lady of Sleep,
She comes tonight
If you’re not sleeping
You won’t make it through the night
She watches sweet dreams from the side
If you awake you will loose your life

Gotta fall asleep
Start counting sheep
Gotta get some rest
Or start the countdown to certain death
10, 9, 8 … 7, 6, 5 … 4, 3, 2, 1 … DIE
The 8 o’clock witch, she has a wicked charm
The 8 o’clock witch, all sleepers left unharmed
So better go asleep, a deep sleep
You are warned … oh you are warned

The Lady of Sleep
She comes tonight
If you’re not sleeping you won’t see next sunrise
Tempt fate but don’t you look surprised
When you see a glimpse of the dark in her eyes

You gotta fall asleep
Start counting sheep
You gotta get some rest
Or start the countdown to your death
