Intruder

Get the Free Flash Player to hear this track.

I know something about opening windows and doors
I know how to move quietly - to creep across creaky wooden floors
I know where to find precious things in all your cupboards and drawers

Slipping the clippers
Slipping the clippers through the telephone wires
The sense of isolation inspires
Inspires me

I like to feel the suspense when I'm certain you know I am there
I like you lying awake, your bated breath charging the air
I like the touch and the smell of all the pretty dresses you wear

Intruder's happy in the dark
Intruder come
Intruder come and he leave his mark
leave his mark
I am the intruder.
