Half past twelve
And I'm watching the darkness in my room all alone
Oh I hate to spend the evenings on my own
Autumn winds
Blowing outside my window as I gaze around the room
Oh it makes me so depressed to see the gloom

Is there a beast out there
Someone to heed my prayers

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme a troll after midnight!
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme a troll after midnight!
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Beast and trolls
Live in lands far away, with no human debt to pay
It's so different from the world I'm living in
Take me there
As I open up the window and I gaze into the night
But there's no one there to see, no one in sight

There's not a beast out there
No one to heed my prayers

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme a troll after midnight!
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme a troll after midnight!
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme a troll after midnight!
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme 'dat Troldhaugen midnight!
