Underwater Moonlight

He was white and she was white
As only statues are
Fifty years they stood there looking
Stupid by a jar
One night in mid August when the moonlight got too strong
They climbed off their pedestal and then they sang this song

Past the gun emplacement and the
Bones as white as bleach
Through the rats and ivy til' they
Came out on a beach
Out into the ocean til' they disappeared from view

Honey when it gets you there's just nothing you can do.

Underwater moonlight, sets the body free
Underwater moonlight, baby you and me

Underwater moonlight, underwater moonlight

He was pink and she was pink
And onward they did row
Didn't see the giant squid, though
It was fairly slow
When they hit the bottom they were well and truly dead
The statues took their place, and then they rode back home instead

Underwater moonlight
Take your baby down
Underwater moonlight
Watch your baby drown
With love
And in the moonlight
Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight

Underwater moonlight
Sets the body free
Underwater moonlight
Baby you and me
Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight

When Darkness Falls

When darkness falls
Foggy night
The heathen's valley
The forest is filled with hate

Souls of the dead
Rising up
The Horde gathers
Ready for battle
Ride off
With hatred in his eyes
Bloody ashes
As proof of our victory

Then we gather
To celebrate victory
The cry of the ravens
Sets the mood

Our souls disappear…
The twilight fades
The night is almost over…
Soon we will gather again

Anger Is My Middle Name

Stripped of any freedom
Locked up in these chains
I feel my temper swell
Fire pumps my veins, yeah

Oh Anger
Anger is my middle name
Oh Anger
Anger is my middle name

The cyclones of rage
That riffle in my chest
I seek revenge
That's my major quest

Oh Anger
Anger is my middle name
Oh Anger
Anger is my middle name

My nostrils flare with steam
I hear the battle cry
There's a fury in my heart
There's lightning in my eyes

Oh Anger
Anger is my middle name
Oh Anger
Anger is my middle name

Oh Anger
Anger is my middle name
Oh Anger
Anger is my middle name

1997

The coolest looking year, ever.

I’m sorry, but like, 1997 was the coolest looking year. 9’s and 7’s together really look cool.

Long Cool Woman

Saturday night I was downtown
Working for the FBI
Sitting in a nest of bad men
Whiskey bottles piling high

Bootlegging boozer on the west side
Full of people who are doing wrong
Just about to call up the D.A. man
When I heard this woman singing a song

A pair of forty fives made me open my eyes
My temperature started to rise

She was a long cool woman in a black dress
Just a 5'9" beautiful 'n' tall
Just one look I was a bad mess
'Cause that long cool woman had it all

I saw her heading to the table
Well, a tall walking big black cat
Charlie said, I hope that you're able, boy
'Cause I'm telling you she knows where it's at

Well, suddenly we hear the sirens
And everybody started to run
Jumping under doors and tables
Well, I heard somebody shooting a gun

Well, the D.A. was pumping my left hand
She was holding my right
Well, I told her, don't get scared
'Cause you're gonna be spared
I've gotta be forgiven if I wanna spend my living

With a long cool woman in a black dress
Just a 5'9" beautiful 'n' tall
Well with just one look I was a bad mess
'Cause that long cool woman had it all
Had it all, had it all, had it all
Had it all, had it all, had it all (she had it all)

Fools Gold

Gold road's sure a long road
Winds on through the hills for fifteen days
The pack on my back is aching
The straps seem to cut me like a knife
Gold road's sure a long road
Winds on through the hills for fifteen days
The pack on my back is aching
The straps seem to cut me like a knife
I'm no clown, I won't back down, don't need you to tell me what's going down
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down
I'm standing alone, I'm watching you all, I'm seeing you sinking
I'm standing alone, you're weighing the gold, I'm watching you sinking
Fool's gold
These boots weren't made for walking
The marquis de sade never made no boots like these
Gold's just around the corner
Breakdown's coming up round the bend
Sometimes you have to try to get along dear

I know the truth and I know what you're thinking
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down
I'm standing alone, I'm watching you all, I'm seeing you sinking
I'm standing alone, you're weighing the gold, I'm watching you sinking
Fools Gold

Breaking Us In Two

Don't you feel like trying something new
Don't you feel like breaking out
Or breaking us in two
You don't do the things that I do
You want to do things I can't do
Always something breaking us in two
You and I could never live alone
But don't you feel like breaking out
Just one day on your own
Why does what I'm saying hurt you
I didn't say that we were through
Always something breaking us in two
They say two hearts should beat as one for us

We'll fight it out to see it through
I say that won't be too much fun for us
Though it's oh so nice to get advice
It's oh so hard to do
Could we be much closer if we tried
We could stay at home and
Stare into each others eyes
Maybe we could last an hour
Maybe then we'd see right through
Always something breaking us in two
They say two hearts should beat as one for us
We'll fight it out to see it through
I say that won't be too much fun for us
Though it's oh so nice to get advice
It's oh so hard to do
Could we be much closer if we tried
We could stay at home and
Stare into each others eyes
Maybe we could last an hour
Maybe then we'd see right through
Always something breaking us in two
Always something breaking us in two
