Night Prowler Lyrics

Lyric discussion by YaakovIsrael 

Cover art for Night Prowler lyrics by AC/DC

This song is not about sneaking into your girlfriend's bedroom, it is about murder, a serial killer. Malcolm is a terrible liar, as demonstrated on Behind the Music. Bon was into the whole Aleister Crowley new wave type satanism of the late 60's and if the truth be told Malcolm was as well. We have to put ourselves back in that era in rock. Marketing pressures demanded a "satanic" band. It is around this time when AC/DC started really writing what could be called satanic music. And around 1984 the whole satan craze dies down and AC/DC started to back off their overt satanism.

My Interpretation

@YaakovIsrael If I were Orthodox I'd write the same thing.
