lyrics

Long ago, when time would be as misty as empty
Some physicians would be dealing with a poor creature
from whom the devil took possession of;
As the rumor spread over the village
The poor creature frightened the less innocent ones

Those great scientists were working on uncertain experiments
In a house twisted by dark bushes.
But nobody did know about it,
At least, nobody talked about it.

He goes out at night, goes out, freaks me out…

The poor creature was wandering, staggering more and more everyday
His steps were losing direction, his body freezing, his look fading
But nobody did know about it,
At least, nobody talked about it.

He goes out at night, goes out, freaks me out…

A strange mellowed mood fell on people,
As the poor creature lost a piece of himself.
The villagers spread the rumour the physicians took the folly stone out of him
Now he's gone, and they took his soul away
Now he's mad, and they believe they are sane

He goes out at night, goes out, freaks me out…
