 Dirty  Creature come my way from the bottom of a big black lake
 Shuffles  up to my window making sure I'm awake
 S'probably  gonna pick my brain
 Got  me in a vice-like grip
 He said one slip, your dead. Ha.
 Dirty  Creature of habit, Little horror here to stay
 Anyone  in his right mind would tell it to go away
 But  the river of dread runs deep, full of unspeakable things
 The  creature don't mess around
 I don't wanna mess with him
 I  don't wanna sail, I don't wanna sail
 I don't wanna, I  don't wanna sail tonight
Dirty  Creature's got me at a disadvantage  from the inside.
 Tentacles  on the brain keep me from falling asleep
 I'm  rooted to the spot, The beast don't know when to stop
 Sneaking  up from behind, Binds and gags my wits
 Dirty  Creature got my head exactly where he wants it
I  don't wanna sail, I don't wanna sail,
 I  don't wanna, I don't wanna sail tonight,
Taniwha  is waiting for me just  below the surface so bright
 (Yeah-eah-eah-eah)
 Even  as we speak the Dirty  Creature springs a nasty surprise.
Dirty  Creature knows my type found it in a magazine
He's  seen the look of fear before splattered all over the screen
The  animal magnet thug draws me out of myself
I  need a dragon-slayer who can save me from myself
I  don't wanna sail, I don't wanna sail,
I  don't wanna set sail for the middle of nowhere tonight
Dirty  Creature's got me at a disadvantage  from the inside
 (Yeah-eah-eah-eah-eah)
I  don't wanna sail upon the  waters of invention tonight
