[Verse]
I trust my gut real good
He's in the neighbourhood
I know that everyone has something they're hiding
But now I'm on the trail
Righteousness will prevail
He won't be giving no romance this evening!

[Pre-Chorus]
I met your darling
In a darkened alleyway I met the fool
I gave no warning
When solving little problems, I don't need no proof

[Chorus]
Oh, I know you're waiting for your midnite lover
But the midnite lover will never arrive
Oh, I know you're waiting for your midnite lover
But I met your lover and he didn't survive

[Verse 2]
I stalked him like a pro
Left him nowhere to go
At first he cried and then he begged me for mercy
But when I'm in the zone
I'm into crushing bone
I grabbed a lug wrench, swung like Paulie from Jersey
[Pre-Chorus]
I met your darling
In a darkened alleyway I met the fool
I gave no warning
When solving little problems, I don't need no proof
(No!)

[Chorus]
Oh, I know you're waiting for your midnite lover
But the midnite lover will never arrive
Oh, I know you're waiting for your midnite lover
But I met your lover and he didn't survive

[Bridge]
Don't you know me?
Don't mind the blood
I've set you free
Because of us
He won't come back
You were his wife
Give him a whack
So we could have a life!

Oh, baby!

[Chorus]
Oh, I know you're waiting for your midnite lover
But the midnite lover will never arrive
Oh, I know you're waiting for your midnite lover
But I met your lover and he didn't survive
Oh, I know you're waiting for your midnite lover
But the midnite lover will never arrive
Oh, I know you're waiting for your midnite lover
But I met your lover and he didn't survive
