TTO 'Evil Eyeball' by Sibylle Machat.
Sib's nice. Sib won't hurt me.

CHORUS:
        I'm the hunter, spirit hunter,
        Cool spirit hunter, I'm the best.
        And I hunt, yes I hunt
        Ghosts and spectral pests!
        And I hunt, yes I hunt
        Ghosts and spectral pests!

Foolish phantoms who think to deny me!
They all shall weep and they all shall fall
For I am the hunter, the cool spirit hunter,
And I'll catch them, yes, I'll catch them all!

I always feel so run-down when I'm working,
I always have to run to catch the train,
But I am the hunter, the cool spirit hunter
And I'm out here, I'm out here standing in the rain.

CHORUS

I started hunting ghosts when I was little,
Put them to peace, though they argued quite a lot.
But I am the hunter, the cool spirit hunter,
And down in their graves they can slumber and rot!

I'm tired of waiting alone in this station,
I'm getting rained on, I'm too tired to care,
But I am the hunter, the cool spirit hunter,
Too broke for a taxi, no cash for the fare.

Where the hell's my train -- this isn't right.
Oh, wait. I guess the schedule was off.
And I am the hunter, the cool spirit hunter,
I've been out on this platform long enough.

CHORUS

The people around me are all very odd,
They don't seem to realize that they shouldn't stare,
But I am the hunter, the cool spirit hunter...
I think that I've seen them somewhere...

- long pause -

Oh, God, do I know you? Wait, let's not talk about it.
I think you've mistaken me for someone else today.
I'm only the hunter, the tiny insignificant hunter,
And I'm looking for an exit, I have to get away...

They're clustering 'round me, pale and faded,
Hands like shadows, plucking at my wrists,
But I am the hunter, the cool spirit hunter,
Leave me be -- I must insist!

CHORUS

They're telling lies! I won't remember!
Won't ask questions, won't be swayed,
For I am the hunter, and the stress here is on hunter.
"Sorry, sweetie, you're not breathing," they say.
Well, tell me why?

They say I never reached the station,
They say I died -- all lies, no doubt.
For I am the hunter, the cool spirit hunter...
But now I'm trapped, I can't get out...

CHORUS (with alternate text):
        No more hunter, spirit hunter,
        Cool spirit hunter...and I'm gone.
        Now I'm lost, yes I'm lost,
        Another spectral pest.
        Now I'm lost, yes I'm lost.
        Another spectral pest.

CHORUS
