Split Enz - Dirty Creature Lyrics
Dirty Creature come my way from the bottom of a big black lakeShuffles up to my window making sure I'm awakeS'probably gonna pick my brainGot me in a vice-like gripHe said one slip, your dead. Ha.Dirty Creature of habit, Little horror here to stayAnyone in his right mind would tell it to go awayBut the river of dread runs deep, full of unspeakable thingsThe creature don't mess aroundI don't wanna mess with himI don't wanna sail, I don't wanna sailI don't wanna, I don't wanna sail tonightDirty Creature's got me at a disadvantage from the inside.Tentacles on the brain keep me from falling asleepI'm rooted to the spot, The beast don't know when to stopSneaking up from behind, Binds and gags my witsDirty Creature got my head exactly where he wants itI don't wanna sail, I don't wanna sail,I don't wanna, I don't wanna sail tonight,Taniwha is waiting for me just below the surface so bright(Yeah-eah-eah-eah)Even as we speak the Dirty Creature springs a nasty surprise.Dirty Creature knows my type found it in a magazineHe's seen the look of fear before splattered all over the screenThe animal magnet thug draws me out of myselfI need a dragon-slayer who can save me from myselfI don't wanna sail, I don't wanna sail,I don't wanna set sail for the middle of nowhere tonightDirty Creature's got me at a disadvantage from the inside(Yeah-eah-eah-eah-eah)I don't wanna sail upon the waters of invention tonight
