You'd better run for shelter,
Don't leave it too late.
You'd better do it now,
There's a devil at your gate.
The northern breeze is blowin',
I wanna pick up pace,
So when the mornin' comes,
There'll be no time to waste.
You gotta hold the house down,
Yes you gotta be strong.
There's a thief out on the loose
and it means to steal your home.
You gotta hide the children,
Gotta keep them well away.
There's a killer roamin' free
in your neighbourhood today.

Keep runnin', now.
You're a thief, you're a liar,
You wanna steal my fire
She took my family,
Took the very part of me.
You're a thief, you're a liar,
