Pinned down by the dark

Been fighting with my sheets
I'm nearly cryin' in my sleep
Yes, I'm battling that well taught gripe
The most frustrating type
You should have racing stripes
The way you keep me in pursuit
Sharpened the heel of your boot
And you press it in my chest and you make me wheeze
Then to my knees you do promote me

I'm pinned down by the dark
A-N-I-M-A-L
Makes my head pirouhette
More than I would be willing to confess
D-A-N-G-E-R-O-U-S

The light it fidgets through
The thoughts will soon revert to you
About as bashful as a tribal dance
The first and final chance
Of course the audience
Are frighteners and fiends
Divided up into two teams
When the acrobat fell off the beam
She broke everyones hearts

I'm pinned down by the dark
A-N-I-M-A-L
Makes my head pirouhette
More than I would be willing to confess
D-A-N-G-E-R-O-U-S

D-A-N-G-E-R-O-U-S
The most unsuitable pet
Been long enough now so let's
Make a mess lioness

I'm pinned down by the dark
I'm pinned down by the dark

Ohh

D-A-N-G-E-R-O-U-S
A-N-I-M-A-L
D-A-N-G-E-R-O-U-S
A-N-I-M-A-L
