It's during Top of the Pops
That the plates and the cups
On the scullery shelves
Start moving by themselves
And the grandfather clock in the hallway
Seems to shudder, than it stops
It's seven twenty four on a Thursday
During Top of the Pops
And Jimmy Savile says NOW THEN
The bass line hammers and pulses
There's a knock on the wall, then your sister falls
To the floor and convulses
She says there's something wrong with the TV
She says there's something wrong with the BBC
There's something sinister in the water
Something's wrong with Top of the Pops

Don't look under the bed
Don't look into my eyes
You don't want to see what's in there
Call the council out
Feed the prepay meter
Stay by the light on the landing
Ho

Mamma, call a doctor
Doctor, call a priest
There's scratches all over her chest and neck
And she smells like brewer's yeast
Call Guy Lyon Playfair
Call the Mail or CSICOP instead
She hasn't spoken since she was choked
And thrown violently out of bed
Gary Glitter sings "Come On, Come On"
Jimmy Savile's stood next to the queen
It's in the NHS and in Broadmoor
It's in the marathon and the machine
She says there's something wrong with the TV
She says there's something wrong with the BBC
There's something sinister in the water
Something wrong with Top Of The Pops
She's crawling into the TV
Crawling into Top of The Pops
She swears she's going to stay there
Til the music stops
