[Verse 1]
Nighttime fell at the opening
Of the final act of the beginning of time
Hyena, take your role, the stage is set
The town is safe again tonight
[Chorus]
Hyena (I see the day ahead)
Hyena (And all that I've cried through)
Hyena (God knows you're doing that, don't you?)
Oh
[Verse 2]
Hyena, sister, look to your hand
SIster thought [?]
She'll tell you when and where and how and why you'd hurt
A beautiful young lady
[Chorus]
Hyena (I see the day ahead)
Hyena (And all that I've cried through)
Hy-Hyena (God knows you're doing that, don't you?)
Oh
[Verse 3]
Hyena crawls on his belly, on his knees
Meager pay, but recognition
Hyena, man, sure could be running into this
The town is safe again tonight, oh
[Chorus]
Hy-Hyena (I see the changes, man)
Hy (Going on across the way)
Hy-Hy-Hyena (I see my road ahead)
How are you?
[Bridge]
The only thing to fear is fearlessness
The bigger the weapon, the greater the fear
Hyena is ambassador to here
Nighttime fell like the closing
[Verse 1]
Nighttime fell at the opening
Of the final act of the beginning of time
Hyena, take your role, the stage is set
The town is safe again tonight
[Outro]
Hyena (I see you holding him)
Hyena (And all that i've cried through)
Hy-Hyena (God knows you're doing that, don't you?)
Hy-Hy-Hyena
Hy-Hy-Hyena
Hyena
Hyena
Oh
