The Vibrators
Somnambulist
I dreamed a dream of an industrial town
Black and white houses were leering down at me
I looked around for a familiar face
All I could see was a wedding of chimpanzees
I see a shape stumble out of the fog
Her face expressionless and eyes that do not see
He is a puppet on invisible string
Permeating through the shadows of the night
And then it clicks into place
Oh, there's no one there behind his face
He's a somnambulist, he walks in his sleep
Somnambulist, stranger appointment to keep
Both expеrts move, I'm glued to the spot
Hе's getting nearer, nearer
He moves away and shambles into the fog
I hear the sound of fanfares blowing in the street
The wedding guests begin to monkey around
I want to run away, I dart into a door
This is a room, it's lit by candlelight
And at the end, a mirror hangs upon the wall
I feel the need to rearrange my hair
When I look there is a stranger lurking there
And then it clicks into place
Oh, there's no one there behind this face
He's a somnambulist, he walks in his sleep
Somnambulist, strange appointment to keep
My legs won't move, I'm glued to the spot
He's getting nearer, nearer
How do you know you don't walk at night?
How do you know that you're tucked up tight?
Why don't you meet me?
Why don't you meet me on the...
Why don't you meet me on the other side?
He's a somnambulist, he walks in his sleep
Somnambulist, strange appointment to keep
My legs won't move, I'm glued to the spot
He's getting nearer, nearer
Somnambulist, he walks in his sleep
Somnambulist, strange appointment to keep
My legs won't move, I'm glued to the spot
He's getting nearer, nearer
Somnambulist, he walks in his sleep
Somnambulist, strange appointment to keep
My legs won't move, I'm glued to the spot
He's getting nearer, nearer
Somnambulist, he walks in his sleep
Somnambulist, strange appointment to keep
