The Fall - City Hobgoblins lyrics
[The Fall - City Hobgoblins lyrics]
Gremlins know these things)
Tap, tap, tap, tap
You think it's the pipes
But who turns on the lights?
Our city hobgoblins our city hobgoblins
Ubu le Roi is a home hobgoblin
And at nights all ready our city hobgoblins
Our city hobgoblins
Infest my home at night they are not alright
Ten times my age one-tenth my height
Our city hobgoblins our city hobgoblins
Buzz of the all-night mill ah but evil
Emigres from old green glades
Pretentious eh? Our city hobgoblins
Our city hobgoblins
They'll get yer so Queen Victoria
Is a large black slug in Piccadilly
Manchester our city hobgoblins
And they say
We cannot walk the floor at night in peace
At night in peace at night in peace
