Out On The Internet

Out on the Internet, a new day dawns
The beast on the East Coast stirs & yawns
Fully awake now, it's been refreshed
It feels a hunger for nubile flesh

Out on the Internet, where they keep it clean
A middle aged man in a chat room swears he's seventeen
He looks out for the lonely, then he makes a play
Out on the Internet, the Beast has found it's prey

Out on the Internet, Lucy texts a friend
He's the only person on whom she can depend
She mails him pictures at his request
But each time she sends a line, she wears a little less

Out on the Internet, the Beast lays the bait
Lucy's alone in her bedroom, working late
Her Mum & Dad think she's safe in there, away from sin
But out on the Internet they don't know who she's letting in

Out on the Internet, the banners wrote
Lucy's done a runner leaving just a note
She's gone with her boyfriend, to live the dream
But out in Cyberspace, no-one can hear you scream

Out on the Internet, the Beast lays it's head
Lucy's found gagged & bound, already dead
While all the Technophiles sweep the blame from their door
Out on the Internet, the Beast soundly snores
