Official Lyrics
[Intro]

Let me tell you a tale of

A quaint little place in Chinatown

Full of many strange artifacts but one thing caught my eye

The greatest present for Christmas time

[Chorus]

Don't expose him to bright light, especially sunlight

The first of the rules for the Mogwai

Unless you want him to multiply, you'd better keep him dry

But you must never ever feed him after midnight

[Verse 1]

Yum yum!

It's more than just a candy bar he wants

Burst from a cocoon to feast on whatever he can find

It's gonna be one hell of a night

Medical supplies, a gingerbread surprise

He's got a hell of an appetite

The microwave won't save the day

The gremlins, they are here to fucking stay

The Christmas tree might bury me

Choked out by festive lights

When you think there's just one left

He'll leap in a pool to create new life

They've made an army that'll crush your house with a JCB

Thriving on chaos all hope is lost until the dawn of another day

[Chorus]

Don't expose him to bright light, especially sunlight

The first of the rules for the Mogwai

Unless you want him to multiply, you'd better keep him dry

But you must never ever feed him after midnight

[Verse 2]

Bedlam in the bar, oh god there's nowhere left to run

A camera flash is just enough 'til she's faced with a gun

Escape to the street to see the wreckage left

Oh shit, there's gremlins in the system

[Bridge]

We are the gremlins, scare you out your skin

Chaotic cretins multiply

Violence and death is beckoning you in

Rioting festive Christmas time

Let's take out Gizmo

Let's take out Gizmo

Let's take out Gizmo

Oh look, it's Snow White!

[Chorus]

Don't expose him to bright light, especially sunlight

The first of the rules for the Mogwai

Unless you want him to multiply, you'd better keep him dry

But you must never ever feed him after midnight
