Lyrics

Verse 3

Creeping through the projector glow

Little rubber fingers row by row

Something grinning where the shadows grow

Mickey's in the walls and he's moving slow

Verse 4

Flip the reel and watch the ink drip down

Betty's in the corner with a broken crown

Pluto's got a mouth that makes no sound

Bouncing off the ceiling then he

Verse 5

Rubber hose arms coming off the spool

Daffy's in the alley with a rusty tool

Goofy's head is rolling like a bowling ball

Down the painted hallway where the pigtails crawl

Bridge

(Where the pigtails crawl)

Tick tick tick goes the flicker frame

(Where the pigtails crawl)

Every cartoon knows your name

(Where the pigtails crawl)

Cut the celluloid and let it bleed

(Where the pigtails crawl)

They don't need a reason, they just need a feed

Chorus

Turn the crank and let them out

(Let them out)

Forty little shadows running all about

(All about)

Grinning at the edge of the projector beam

(Projector beam)

Nothing in the world is ever what it seems

Post-Chorus

Crawl crawl crawl

(Crawl crawl crawl)

Crawl crawl crawl

(Crawl crawl crawl)

Verse 6

Felix on the staircase walking upside down

Oswald in the doorway wearing someone's frown

Porky's little fingers tapping out a code

Every single frame another one explodes

Verse 7

Betty Boop is humming something out of key

(Out of key)

Seven rubber ducklings coming after me

(After me)

Bimbo's in the mirror but he's not alone

(Not alone)

Half a dozen faces that were never shown

(Never shown)

Chorus

Turn the crank and let them out

(Let them out)

Forty little shadows running all about

(All about)

Grinning at the edge of the projector beam

(Projector beam)

Nothing in the world is ever what it seems

Drop

Crawl crawl crawl

(Crawl crawl crawl)

Crawl crawl crawl

(Crawl crawl crawl)

Rubber fingers, rubber jaws

(Rubber jaws)

Rubber fingers, rubber jaws

(Rubber jaws)

Crawl crawl crawl

(Crawl crawl crawl)

Crawl crawl crawl

(Crawl crawl crawl)

Verse 8

Rats in top hats marching two by two

Two by two

Skeleton of a kitten singing something new

Something new

Every cartoon grave is popping at the seam

At the seam

Nineteen twenty-eight is waking from a dream

Guitar Solo

Verse 9

Casper in the corner got a mouth full of nails

(Nails nails nails)

Woody's little body leaving splinter trails

(Trails trails trails)

Grumpy's got a needle and he's stitching up the screen

(Stitching up the screen)

Every single cell is coming off the reel unclean

Chorus

Turn the crank and let them out

(Let them out)

Forty little shadows running all about

(All about)

Grinning at the edge of the projector beam

(Projector beam)

Nothing in the world is ever what it seems

Post-Chorus

Crawl crawl crawl

(Crawl crawl crawl)

Crawl crawl crawl

(Crawl crawl crawl)

Outro

Ink and vinegar and painted eyes

(Painted eyes)

Little hands are climbing up the sides

(Up the sides)

Kill the lamp and lock the door

(Lock the door)

They're already underneath the floor

(Underneath the floor)

Crawl crawl crawl

(Crawl crawl crawl)

Crawl crawl crawl
