Late, sometime before midnight   He comes creeping up   And before you get him sussed   He's gone before dusk      And when you arise   Red ruby rings circle your eyes   If it's later than you realized   Check with the stars and the skies      Old moon madness has struck again      A howl in the dark light   A flash of teeth bright white   A scream and a bite   Old moon madness has struck again tonight      But there's no need to worry   For the crimes that you've done   Worse has been committed   With no moon madness to blame it on      Old moon madness has struck again      In fact you could say you're lucky   You and me   Mother Earth has only one moon   And not three
