Lyrics

I can still recall the old man's words of warning
"Stay on the road"
"And beware the moon"

Oh but did we listen? We thought him just a fool
Now I pay for my ignorance, and the punishment is cruel
Who would have believed, that out there in the moors
Roamed around an evil beast which appointed us main course

My friend is now undead
Telling me my blood to shed

A poisonous bite to change my mind
A curse bestowed of the feral kind
Shifting shape when darkness falls
And madness calls

When the moon grows full the process doth begin
A searing pain flooding me as I shed my human skin
Slowly I am morphed into a wolf-like beast
An incarnation of lunacy with rampant bloodlust unleashed

Creating more of the undead

Oh no, this can't go on
My affliction must be undone
Only in death I'll find release
Rid me of this vile disease

A poisonous bite to change my mind
A curse bestowed of the feral kind
Shifting shape when darkness falls
And madness calls

Death seems to be the way to break the spell
The only means to exorcise the beast within my shell
Again the moon appears; setting the werewolf free
To roam the streets of London in a final killing spree

A spray of bullet lead
Terminates the curse - I am dead
