"Wild Child" lyrics

Turn out the lights and say your prayers
Sleep tight now, don't be afraid
There ain't no monster under your bed

The moon is rising, it's time to go
I'll tuck you in real tight and lock the door
The only monster's inside your head

There ain't no chains that could have held her down
You know that fever's like a fire inside

Now she's out of time
The beast inside has come alive
In the midnight hour
She's such a wild child
By the call of night
Howling at the moonlight
Hear the cry
She's such a wild child

You hear the screams behind the door
She ain't your little girl no more
Just a monster 'til morning comes

There's something calling from the other side
Those twilight creatures on the prowl tonight

Now she's out of time
The beast inside has come alive
In the midnight hour
She's such a wild child
By the call of night
Howling at the moonlight
Hear the cry
She's such a wild child

Now she's out of time
The beast inside has come alive
In the midnight hour
She's such a wild child
By the call of night
Howling at the moonlight
Hear the cry
She's such a wild child
