Lyrics The Dear Hunter

The Dear Hunter

Mr. Usher (On His Way to Town)

The Shudders Close When He's Around

The Children Shut Their Eyes

In Fear Of What They Must Surmise

When All The Gentlemen Hang Their Heads Down

Yeah, Mr. Usher's On His Way To Town

He Keeps His Sights Set Straight And True

His Idle Hands Won't Flit Or Flutter

Never Does He Slip Or Stutter

Still His Mind Is Menacing Away

Yeah, Mr. Usher's On The Prowl Today

He Needn't Dirty Up His Hands

He'll Twist You Heart Until You're Manic

Lost In Endless Streams Of Panic

Pray You're Not The One He Finds

If Mr. Usher's Got You On His Mind

Any Time The Plan'll Get A Bit Off Track

He's The Only One Who Can Bring It Back

The Main Manipulator

Yeah, The Wolf Who Leads The Pack

You Better Lock Your Doors And Shut Your Windows Tight

Pull The Shades Down And Turn Off The Lights

Always Feed The Hand That Leads To Teeth That Bite

Because, If He Has No Use For You

He'll Take You To The River

He'll Have You Hanging By A String

Or Noose If He Prefers You Perish

All Your Dreams Become Nightmarish

If You Block His Path Or Plan

Yeah Mr. Usher Always Gets His Man
