I see the bad moon a-rising   I see trouble on the way   I see earthquakes and lightnin'   I see bad times today      Don't go around tonight   Well, 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 rivers over flowing   I hear the voice of rage and ruin      Don't go around tonight   Well, it's bound to take your life   There's a bad moon on the rise   All right      Hope you 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      Well, don't go around tonight   Well, it's bound to take your life   There's a bad moon on the rise      Don't come around tonight   Well, it's bound to take your life   There's a bad moon on the rise
