The Affidavit lyrics - Clutch
Alright well, why don't you just go ahead and have a seat right there.
Here's a pad of paper and pen. And... Well
Why don't you just, why don't you just start at the beginning now?
Here's a pad of paper and pen. And... Well
Why don't you just, why don't you just start at the beginning now?
X-Ray Visions lyrics - Clutch
First thing that I did, was buy a pack of smokes,
check in to a motel and consult my horoscope.
Sitting on the bed, with a briefcase in my hands,
patiently awaiting any word from my command
Telekinetic, dynamite
Psychic warfare is real
You better believe me brother
X-ray vision
Telekinetic prophetic dynamite
Psychic warfare is real
I know what you're thinking sister
X-ray vision
Next thing that I did, was tap out Morse code,
with a wooden nickel on the receiver on the phone.
Before I could complete it, I was quickly overtaken
by the angry spirits of Ronald and Nancy Reagan
Telekinetic, dynamite
Psychic warfare is real
You better believe me brother
X-ray vision
Telekinetic, prophetic dynamite
Psychic warfare is real
I know what you're thinking sister
X-ray vision
And on the drums, Gemini
On bass guitar, presenting, Pisces
On lead guitar, we have Aries
and on the microphone, Scorpio
Go
Last thing I remember, I was covered by the ruins,
I don't know who's to blame for that, but I know who didn't do it.
With every day that passes, it keeps on getting stranger,
but that really doesn't bother me, cause I get off on the danger.
Telekinetic, dynamite
Psychic warfare is real
You better believe me brother
X-ray vision
Telekinetic, prophetic dynamite
Psychic warfare is real
I know what you're thinking sister
X-ray vision
Telekinetic, dynamite
Psychic warfare is real
You better believe me brother
X-ray vision
t-t-t-telekinetic, prophetic dynamite
Psychic warfare is real
I know what you're thinking...
X-ray vision
check in to a motel and consult my horoscope.
Sitting on the bed, with a briefcase in my hands,
patiently awaiting any word from my command
Telekinetic, dynamite
Psychic warfare is real
You better believe me brother
X-ray vision
Telekinetic prophetic dynamite
Psychic warfare is real
I know what you're thinking sister
X-ray vision
Next thing that I did, was tap out Morse code,

Firebirds lyrics - Clutch
Outside of Needles I nearly lost my mind
I pulled over on the shoulder
Yeah, and I was there some time
A young thing came walking
From out behind the trees
She gave me consolations
And this is what she said to me
"Firebirds! Energy weapons!
Both of these things are interesting to me
I don't care how you get them
I need them both and I need them urgently"
Yeah, I said I can get with that
Oh, I like those things too
But I don't own a Firebird
Perhaps this Datsun will do
Outside of the valley
Yeah, we got to overheating
She took off her sunglasses
And said I believe this bears repeating
"Firebirds! Energy weapons!
Both of these things are interesting to me
I don't care how you get them
I need them both and I need them urgently"
"Firebirds! Energy weapons!
Both of these things are interesting to me
I don't care how you get them
I need them both and I need them urgently"
Firebirds!
Outside of Barstow
We got to living on the lam
Sometimes doing odd jobs
And sometimes living off the land
Yeah, things went sour
And the girl, she got to packing
When I asked her why
She said "There are two things you are lacking"
"Firebirds! Energy weapons!
Both of these things are interesting to me
I don't care how you get them
I need them both and I need them urgently"
"Firebirds! Energy weapons!
Both of these things are interesting to me
I don't care how you get them
I need them both and I need them urgently"
Firebirds!
I pulled over on the shoulder
Yeah, and I was there some time
A young thing came walking
From out behind the trees
She gave me consolations
And this is what she said to me

I don't care how you get them
I need them both and I need them urgently"
Yeah, I said I can get with that
Oh, I like those things too
But I don't own a Firebird

A Quick Death In Texas lyrics - Clutch
My nasty Yankee mannerisms
Didn't jive with the local traditions
How was I to know she had a jealous husband?
He was the GM of a Tractor Supply
Well acquainted with the guns and knives
Sometimes I swear I have less sense than a bag of hammers
I prayed for courage, I prayed for love
I prayed for guidance from the heavens above
I prayed to know divine protections
But now I'm praying for a quick death in Texas
Hey hey
Please forgive me, Mr. Gibbons
I crawled my way into The Doom Saloon
In an attempt to cauterize my wounds
I did a terrible job and they became powerfully infected
I found myself atop a stolen roan
Quite convinced that I would never see home
And all on account of my lack of common manners
I prayed for courage, I prayed for love
I prayed for guidance from the heavens above
I prayed to know divine protections
But now I'm praying for a quick death in Texas
The saloon doors stopped swinging
The piano player stopped playing
In the shadows I could hear Archaic Spanish phrases
The preacher stood up from his table in his right hand he held a bible
And in his left, the business end of a Winchester rifle
I prayed for courage, I prayed for love
I prayed for guidance from the heavens above
I prayed to know divine protections
But now I'm praying for a quick death in Texas
Beaumont, Amarillo, got a line on me
Galveston, El Paso, Nacogdoches, Abilene
Beaumont, Amarillo, got a line on me
Galveston, El Paso, Nacogdoches, Abilene
Beaumont, Amarillo, got a line on me
Galveston, El Paso, Nacogdoches, Abilene
Beaumont, Amarillo, got a line on me
Galveston, El Paso, Nacogdoches, Abilene
Didn't jive with the local traditions
How was I to know she had a jealous husband?
He was the GM of a Tractor Supply
Well acquainted with the guns and knives
Sometimes I swear I have less sense than a bag of hammers
I prayed for courage, I prayed for love
I prayed for guidance from the heavens above
I prayed to know divine protections
But now I'm praying for a quick death in Texas
Hey hey
Please forgive me, Mr. Gibbons
I crawled my way into The Doom Saloon
In an attempt to cauterize my wounds
I did a terrible job and they became powerfully infected

Quite convinced that I would never see home

I prayed for courage, I prayed for love
I prayed for guidance from the heavens above
I prayed to know divine protections
But now I'm praying for a quick death in Texas
The saloon doors stopped swinging
The piano player stopped playing
In the shadows I could hear Archaic Spanish phrases
The preacher stood up from his table in his right hand he held a bible
And in his left, the business end of a Winchester rifle

Sucker For The Witch lyrics - Clutch
Every time I set to write
Lyricals on the women
I always seem to end up
The victim of some terrible ass kicking
So now I'm telling myself
Friend why you got the obsession?
Here it is now people
To the best of my recollection
It goes against my catholic upbringing
I admit it I'm a sucker for the witch
Sucker for the witch
I can tell you precisely
Where this all began
Salem, Massachusetts
And I was hardly a man
I fell madly in love with
Some brand of Stevie Nicks
Oh, I begged and I pleaded
Like a fiend for a fix
I must unburden my guilty conscience
I admit it I'm a sucker for the witch
May God have mercy on my wicked soul
I can't help myself I'm a sucker for the witch
I might deny her but my heart will never resist
I can't help myself I'm a sucker
She's made her appearances
In many the rhyme
And that's my cross to bear
Until the end of time
Better call the inquisition
Better put me to the test
Give me exorcism
For I am truly possessed
It goes against my catholic upbringing
I admit it I'm a sucker for the witch
Sucker for the witch
I must unburden my guilty conscience
I admit it I'm a sucker for the witch
May God have mercy on my wicked soul
I can't help myself I'm a sucker for the witch
I might deny her but my heart will never resist
I can't help myself I'm a sucker... for the witch
It goes against my catholic upbringing
I admit it I'm a sucker for the witch
May God have mercy on my wicked soul
I can't help myself I'm a sucker for the witch
I might deny her but my heart will never resist
I can't help myself I'm a sucker
Lyricals on the women
I always seem to end up
The victim of some terrible ass kicking
So now I'm telling myself
Friend why you got the obsession?
Here it is now people
To the best of my recollection
It goes against my catholic upbringing
I admit it I'm a sucker for the witch
Sucker for the witch

Oh, I begged and I pleaded

And that's my cross to bear

Your Love Is Incarceration lyrics - Clutch
I make my move when the tower guards are changing
Camouflage and evasion
One minute later I'm back in your paddy wagon
and receiving Re-education!
Throw me in cuffs
No chance of parole
Back in the house
Thirty days in the hole
Segregate me from the local population
Your love is incarceration!
Hey! No justice to be had!
I'd cop a plea to larceny and public nuisance
Conspiracy and sedition
But that thing that happened in Chattanooga
I'm just asking for forgiveness
Throw me in cuffs
No chance of parole
Back in the house
Thirty days in the hole
Segregate me from the local population
Your love is incarceration!
Hey! No justice to be had!
As to the charges of verbal arson
Before the court, hey, how do you plead?
As to the charges of getting down
Before the court, hey, how do you plead?
To all the charges that are laid before me
I confess I am guilty in the first degree!
I dig my way out with a plastic spoon and thimble
Hide the dirt in the cages
Cause that thing that happened in Chattanooga
With a garden hose and Yellow Pages
Throw me in cuffs
No chance of parole
Back in the house
Thirty days in the hole
Segregate me from the local population
Your love is incarceration!
Hey! No justice to be had!
Hey! No justice to be had!
Camouflage and evasion
One minute later I'm back in your paddy wagon
and receiving Re-education!
Throw me in cuffs
No chance of parole
Back in the house
Thirty days in the hole
Segregate me from the local population
Your love is incarceration!
Hey! No justice to be had!
I'd cop a plea to larceny and public nuisance
Conspiracy and sedition
But that thing that happened in Chattanooga
I'm just asking for forgiveness
Throw me in cuffs
No chance of parole
Back in the house
Thirty days in the hole
Segregate me from the local population
Your love is incarceration!
Hey! No justice to be had!
As to the charges of verbal arson
Before the court, hey, how do you plead?
As to the charges of getting down
Before the court, hey, how do you plead?
To all the charges that are laid before me
I confess I am guilty in the first degree!
I dig my way out with a plastic spoon and thimble
Hide the dirt in the cages
Cause that thing that happened in Chattanooga

Throw me in cuffs
No chance of parole
Back in the house
Thirty days in the hole
Segregate me from the local population
Your love is incarceration!
Hey! No justice to be had!
Hey! No justice to be had!
Our Lady Of Electric Light lyrics - Clutch
They close the curtain
To hide from the dawn
The Rock-Ola's fire
Burns on and on
Have no fear the dark of night
She walks before us, our lady of electric lights
She enters the bar room
And lifts her veil
With a voice like running water
She tells them her tale
The patrons all break down at the sight
Standing in the presence of our lady of electric lights
Tiny plastic sabers
Piled high to my knees
Though the war rages on
I still find no enemies
They draw back the curtain
Are blinded by the dawn
And the shining Rock-Ola
Spins on and on
Now I know I can no longer fight
And I run into the arms of our lady of electric lights
Now I know I can no longer fight
And I run into the arms of our lady of electric lights
To hide from the dawn
The Rock-Ola's fire
Burns on and on
Have no fear the dark of night
She walks before us, our lady of electric lights
She enters the bar room
And lifts her veil
With a voice like running water
She tells them her tale
The patrons all break down at the sight
Standing in the presence of our lady of electric lights
Tiny plastic sabers
Piled high to my knees
Though the war rages on
I still find no enemies
They draw back the curtain
Are blinded by the dawn
And the shining Rock-Ola
Spins on and on
Now I know I can no longer fight
And I run into the arms of our lady of electric lights
Now I know I can no longer fight
And I run into the arms of our lady of electric lights
Noble Savage Clutch lyrics - Clutch
Thank you for taking time out of your day
Your responses will allow us to serve you in a better way
Did you not take into account I'm an uncivilized man?
Unapologetic lifer for Rock and Roll!
Unapologetic lifer for Rock and Roll!
Ten words or less can you describe yourself?
Your religion, your politics, your general health?
Did you not take into account I'm a noble savage?
Unapologetic lifer for Rock and Roll!
Unapologetic lifer for Rock and Roll!
It's been a blast discussing my lifestyle
But as you can see I got styles for miles
Did you not take into account I'm a sophisticated man?
Unapologetic lifer for Rock and Roll!
Unapologetic lifer for Rock and Roll!
Unapologetic lifer for Rock and Roll!
Unapologetic lifer for Rock and Roll!
Your responses will allow us to serve you in a better way
Did you not take into account I'm an uncivilized man?
Unapologetic lifer for Rock and Roll!
Unapologetic lifer for Rock and Roll!
Ten words or less can you describe yourself?
Your religion, your politics, your general health?
Did you not take into account I'm a noble savage?
Unapologetic lifer for Rock and Roll!

It's been a blast discussing my lifestyle
But as you can see I got styles for miles
Did you not take into account I'm a sophisticated man?
Unapologetic lifer for Rock and Roll!
Unapologetic lifer for Rock and Roll!
Unapologetic lifer for Rock and Roll!
Unapologetic lifer for Rock and Roll!
Behold The Colossus lyrics - Clutch
Drive us by pitchfork to caves by the sea
Atop the mountain, under cities
We are monsters, we are older than men
Yes, we are Gorgons and we will have our revenge
Frighten their children by speaking our name
Epoch and eon, it's always the same
We are monsters, but we will no longer run
We are the cyclops and our time has come
This world was ours before it had ever known men
Soon it will be ours again
Grant them their tales of their forefather's glory
For soon it will be ours again
Atop the buttress the gargoyle sits
The fragile foundation crumbles to bits
We are monsters and they are but men
Behold the Colossus rises again!
This world was ours before it had ever known men
And soon it will be ours again
Grant them their tales of their forefather's glory
For soon it will be ours again
This world was ours before it had ever known men
And soon it will be ours again
Soon it will be ours again
Atop the mountain, under cities
We are monsters, we are older than men
Yes, we are Gorgons and we will have our revenge
Frighten their children by speaking our name
Epoch and eon, it's always the same
We are monsters, but we will no longer run
We are the cyclops and our time has come
This world was ours before it had ever known men
Soon it will be ours again
Grant them their tales of their forefather's glory
For soon it will be ours again
Atop the buttress the gargoyle sits
The fragile foundation crumbles to bits
We are monsters and they are but men
Behold the Colossus rises again!
This world was ours before it had ever known men
And soon it will be ours again
Grant them their tales of their forefather's glory
For soon it will be ours again
This world was ours before it had ever known men
And soon it will be ours again
Soon it will be ours again
Decapitation Blues lyrics - Clutch
The experts agree the condition was dire
By all indications the subject should have expired
You've been banging your head like a teenaged fool
Here you've been kicked in the neck by a three legg'd mule
Do you care to confess to traumatic abuse?
You have an advance case of the decapitation blues
Upon my release I had my suspicions
That they were too liberal and skillful with all the incisions
Cool heads prevailed and now it's all too clear to me
That reanimation is not what it's all cracked up to be
Do you care to confess to traumatic abuse?
You have an advance case of the decapitation blues
Now a congress of corpses is always in session
Debating the wisdom of my current direction
You've been banging your head like a teenaged fool
Here you've been kicked in the neck by a three legg'd mule.
Do you care to confess to traumatic abuse?
You have an advance case of the decapitation blues
Do you care to confess to traumatic abuse?
You have an advance case of the decapitation blues
By all indications the subject should have expired
You've been banging your head like a teenaged fool
Here you've been kicked in the neck by a three legg'd mule
Do you care to confess to traumatic abuse?
You have an advance case of the decapitation blues
Upon my release I had my suspicions
That they were too liberal and skillful with all the incisions
Cool heads prevailed and now it's all too clear to me
That reanimation is not what it's all cracked up to be
Do you care to confess to traumatic abuse?
You have an advance case of the decapitation blues
Now a congress of corpses is always in session
Debating the wisdom of my current direction
You've been banging your head like a teenaged fool
Here you've been kicked in the neck by a three legg'd mule.
Do you care to confess to traumatic abuse?
You have an advance case of the decapitation blues
Do you care to confess to traumatic abuse?
You have an advance case of the decapitation blues
Son Of Virginia lyrics - Clutch
It was the morning of All Saint's Day, '98
When that old blind dog started roaming around the graveyard
Wouldn't have bothered me so much
Were he not walking on his hind legs and smoking cigars
Recite my lineage and genealogy
You've got to know your history, son of Virginia
Everybody's in the church believing they're a sinner
And looking for a sign from the true son of Virginia
When the storm blew over we made our way
To the old hay wain to infiltrate the sarcophagus
By the dim light of a narrow window we saw
The God's honest truth staring right back at us
Recite your lineage and genealogy
You've got to know your history, son of Virginia
Everybody's in the church believing they're a sinner
And looking for a sign from the true son of Virginia
Stare into the embers on the first of November
And remember you were born a true son of Virginia
I was thrown to the ground as my world broke asunder
Truly we are living in an age of wonder
Truly we are living in an age of wonder
It was the morning of All Saint's Day, '98
When that old blind dog started calling me associate
Wouldn't have bothered me so much were it not for the fact
That was the truth of it
Recite our lineage and genealogy
You've got to know your history,
Son of Virginia Stare into the embers on the first of November
And remember you were born a true son of Virginia
I was thrown to the ground as my world broke asunder
Truly we are living in an age of wonder
I wept like a child as the son rose above her
Truly we are living in an age of wonder.
When that old blind dog started roaming around the graveyard
Wouldn't have bothered me so much
Were he not walking on his hind legs and smoking cigars
Recite my lineage and genealogy
You've got to know your history, son of Virginia
Everybody's in the church believing they're a sinner
And looking for a sign from the true son of Virginia
When the storm blew over we made our way
To the old hay wain to infiltrate the sarcophagus
By the dim light of a narrow window we saw
The God's honest truth staring right back at us
Recite your lineage and genealogy
You've got to know your history, son of Virginia
Everybody's in the church believing they're a sinner
And looking for a sign from the true son of Virginia
Stare into the embers on the first of November
And remember you were born a true son of Virginia
I was thrown to the ground as my world broke asunder
Truly we are living in an age of wonder
Truly we are living in an age of wonder
It was the morning of All Saint's Day, '98
When that old blind dog started calling me associate
Wouldn't have bothered me so much were it not for the fact
That was the truth of it
Recite our lineage and genealogy
You've got to know your history,
Son of Virginia Stare into the embers on the first of November
And remember you were born a true son of Virginia
I was thrown to the ground as my world broke asunder
Truly we are living in an age of wonder
I wept like a child as the son rose above her
Truly we are living in an age of wonder.
Earth Rocker lyrics - Clutch
What's this about limits?
Sorry, I don't know none.
What's this about some DB limit?
Sorry, I can't hear none.
You can take a little cruise down the river of booze,
Act all poor and defeated.
Shout to the mountain some boo-hoo blues,
But I'll stand here and repeat it:
I'm an earth rocker!
Everybody hear me now?
I'm an earth rocker!
Everybody get the message?
If you're gonna do it,
Do it live on stage, or don't do it at all.
If you're gonna do it,
You better take it to the stage, or don't do it at all.
I will suffer no evil.
My guitar will guide me through.
I will suffer no evil,
And this time, I want to hear it from you.
I'm an earth rocker!
Everybody hear me now?
I'm an earth rocker!
Everybody get the message?
Break it down,
To brass tacks.
Break it down,
To just the facts.
I don't need your stinkin' laminate,
I don't need your VIP.
I don't need your validation,
'Cause I wear mine on my sleeve.
Don't look to me for answers,
'Cause I don't got-a-one.
I just came to have a good time.
And I'm gonna have one.
Yes, I've lost many battles,
And even more days.
But if I had to do it over,
I'd do it just the same.
'Cause I'm an earth rocker!
Everybody hear me now?
I'm an earth rocker!
Everybody get the message?
I'm an earth rocker!
Understand?
I'm an earth rocker!
Everybody get the message?
Sorry, I don't know none.
What's this about some DB limit?
Sorry, I can't hear none.
You can take a little cruise down the river of booze,
Act all poor and defeated.
Shout to the mountain some boo-hoo blues,
But I'll stand here and repeat it:
I'm an earth rocker!
Everybody hear me now?
I'm an earth rocker!

Crucial Velocity lyrics - Clutch
Peace keeping agents from several futures,
they got a warrant out, some judge's letter.
What it is I'm going to do, I haven't done.
They got their probabilities, but I got somethin' much better.
My Rocket 88, fastest in the land.
Crucial, crucial, velocity.
My Rocket 88, fastest in the land.
Crucial, crucial, velocity.
People keep sayin' you got to quit all your lyin',
but cheatin' and lyin' people is all I've ever known.
People keep tellin' me this and that and this and that,
'cause this and thattin' people is all they've ever known.
Does it really matter how it all started,
does it really matter how it's gonna end?
Reality is gettin' too damn unpredictable,
unpredictable times call for the reliable friend.
My Rocket 88, fastest in the land.
Crucial, crucial, velocity.
My Rocket 88, fastest in the land.
Crucial, crucial, velocity.
Everybody, everybody keeps tellin' me,
"Neil, you got to quit your low down ways."
So I ask them if they have the solution,
and they just shake their heads and slowly walk away.
My Rocket 88, fastest in the land.
Crucial, crucial, velocity.
My Rocket 88, fastest in the land.
Crucial, crucial, velocity.
My Rocket 88, fastest in the land.
Crucial, crucial, velocity.
My Rocket 88, fastest in the land.
Crucial, crucial, velocity.
they got a warrant out, some judge's letter.
What it is I'm going to do, I haven't done.
They got their probabilities, but I got somethin' much better.
My Rocket 88, fastest in the land.
Crucial, crucial, velocity.
My Rocket 88, fastest in the land.
Crucial, crucial, velocity.
People keep sayin' you got to quit all your lyin',
but cheatin' and lyin' people is all I've ever known.
People keep tellin' me this and that and this and that,
'cause this and thattin' people is all they've ever known.
Does it really matter how it all started,
does it really matter how it's gonna end?
Reality is gettin' too damn unpredictable,
unpredictable times call for the reliable friend.
My Rocket 88, fastest in the land.
Crucial, crucial, velocity.
My Rocket 88, fastest in the land.
Crucial, crucial, velocity.
Everybody, everybody keeps tellin' me,
"Neil, you got to quit your low down ways."
So I ask them if they have the solution,
and they just shake their heads and slowly walk away.
My Rocket 88, fastest in the land.
Crucial, crucial, velocity.
My Rocket 88, fastest in the land.
Crucial, crucial, velocity.
My Rocket 88, fastest in the land.
Crucial, crucial, velocity.
My Rocket 88, fastest in the land.
Crucial, crucial, velocity.
Mr. Freedom lyrics - Clutch
Phantoms of the second civil war
You gather them around
And every time you open up your mouth,
A loud of horseshit comes flying right back out
Flying right back out
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you very much but no
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you very much but no
Serious business on your lapel
Let the people, know how you feel
And every bumper sticker on the back of your car
Makes you feel a little more real,
A little more real
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you very much but no
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you BUT NO!
I bet you would like nothing better
Than for the shit to hit the fan
And from the safety of your arm chair,
Properly lay those plans that no one else but you can possibly understand
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you very much but no
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you very much but no
Thanks for thinking of me
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you very much but no
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you very much but no
That’s mighty kind of you
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you very much…but no
You gather them around
And every time you open up your mouth,
A loud of horseshit comes flying right back out
Flying right back out
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you very much but no
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you very much but no
Serious business on your lapel
Let the people, know how you feel
And every bumper sticker on the back of your car
Makes you feel a little more real,
A little more real
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you very much but no
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you BUT NO!
I bet you would like nothing better
Than for the shit to hit the fan
And from the safety of your arm chair,
Properly lay those plans that no one else but you can possibly understand
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you very much but no
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you very much but no
Thanks for thinking of me
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you very much but no
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you very much but no
That’s mighty kind of you
Mr. Freedom big time talker-upper, thank you very much…but no
D.C. Sound Attack! lyrics - Clutch
The optics of it are not important.
The public don't give a damn.
I see you're in need of consultation now.
Everybody needs a sinister hand.
Naturally no sympathizer.
I'm a war monger, baby.
Gonna industrialize ya.
Trouble I love.
Peace I do despise.
I'm a war monger, baby.
I got blood in my eyes and I'm looking at you!
No, no, no, I've never worn no uniform.
Except for the ballroom blitz.
There's no need for conversation here.
I prefer the dimmest intelligence.
Naturally no sympathizer.
I'm a war monger, baby.
Gonna industrialize ya.
Trouble I love.
Peace I do despise.
You're a war monger, baby.
And you know you can't deny.
Hell hounds on your trail.
What a pity.
But that's the price you pay
Shaking hands in Necro-city.
Hell hounds on your trail.
What a pity.
But that's the price you pay
Shaking hands in Necro-city.
D.C. Sound Attack!
Let the rhythm hit 'em!
D.C. Sound Attack!
Drop the bomb! Look out!
I'm not one for sporting laurels.
I find honor rather trite.
Never let a sense of morals
Prevent me from doing what is right.
Naturally no sympathizer.
I'm a war monger, baby.
Gonna industrialize ya.
Trouble I love.
Peace I do despise.
You're a war monger, baby.
And you know you can't deny.
Hell hounds on your trail.
What a pity.
But that's the price you pay
Shaking hands in Necro-city.
Hell hounds on your trail.
What a pity.
But that's the price you pay
Shaking hands in Necro-city.
Hell hounds on your trail.
What a pity.
But that's the price you pay
Shaking hands in Necro-city.
Hell hounds on your trail.

Unto The Breach lyrics - Clutch
The burden of a time lord is there's never any time.
Too much of eternity and nowhere to unwind.
Hobgoblins and morrismen fighting in the streets.
Hot continuum breakdown give them lightning!
Waiting on the corner for the Swiss guard to arrive...to arrive.
And when they do we'll battle them and rattle them.
Halberd versus mind versus mind.
Once more unto the breach!
Like the Gutenberg Bible, we're the moveable type.
Very transient, very influential.
Like the large hadron collider, the more you see the less you understand.
The atmosphere's getting volatile.
Waiting on the corner for the Swiss guard to arrive...to arrive.
And when they do we'll battle them and rattle them.
Halberd versus mind versus mind.
Once more unto the breach!
Dalek goon squad. Black shirt master.
Hit 'em where it hurts.
Full on psychic blaster. Plague doctors and subhumans.
Can you feel the heat?
The atmosphere's getting hectic.
The atmosphere's getting volatile.
Waiting on the corner for the Swiss guard to arrive...to arrive.
And when they do we'll battle them and rattle them.
Halberd versus mind versus mind.
Once more unto the breach!
Once more unto the breach!
Once more unto the breach!
Too much of eternity and nowhere to unwind.
Hobgoblins and morrismen fighting in the streets.
Hot continuum breakdown give them lightning!
Waiting on the corner for the Swiss guard to arrive...to arrive.
And when they do we'll battle them and rattle them.
Halberd versus mind versus mind.
Once more unto the breach!
Like the Gutenberg Bible, we're the moveable type.
Very transient, very influential.
Like the large hadron collider, the more you see the less you understand.
The atmosphere's getting volatile.
Waiting on the corner for the Swiss guard to arrive...to arrive.
And when they do we'll battle them and rattle them.
Halberd versus mind versus mind.
Once more unto the breach!
Dalek goon squad. Black shirt master.
Hit 'em where it hurts.
Full on psychic blaster. Plague doctors and subhumans.
Can you feel the heat?
The atmosphere's getting hectic.
The atmosphere's getting volatile.
Waiting on the corner for the Swiss guard to arrive...to arrive.
And when they do we'll battle them and rattle them.
Halberd versus mind versus mind.
Once more unto the breach!
Once more unto the breach!
Once more unto the breach!
Gone Cold lyrics - Clutch
Swan boats in daisy chains
Can't seem to recall
My true given name
I see my footprints
How they come, how they go
Was that yesterday?
Or only a moment ago?
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
The past gives way
To a cold winter field
With ground below
Hard as steel
Beyond the hill
A distant song
But that hill
Keeps going on and on
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
Swan boats in daisy chains
Can't seem to recall
Any given name
I see the footprints
How they come, how they go
Was that only a moment?
Or many years ago?
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
Can't seem to recall
My true given name
I see my footprints
How they come, how they go
Was that yesterday?
Or only a moment ago?
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
The past gives way
To a cold winter field
With ground below
Hard as steel
Beyond the hill
A distant song
But that hill
Keeps going on and on
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
Swan boats in daisy chains
Can't seem to recall
Any given name
I see the footprints
How they come, how they go
Was that only a moment?
Or many years ago?
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
The Face lyrics - Clutch
They arrive on a sunny day
Offering the residents a better way
Before you know it you're in line and chanting refrain
They reel you in and then they turn you out
First they tell ya you're gonna lose your soul
And then they tell ya find another home
And then ya take a good look around
And they stole your rock and roll
And once it's gone you'll never get it back
1000 Les Pauls burning in a field
What rabid religion poisons their minds?
1000 jazz masters thrown into the sea
What measure of madness governs their time?
In the beginning
There was void
The hand moved over
Then there was noise
Fire and water
Heaven and stone
Radio kings
Hammer and throne
1000 Les Pauls smoulder in a field
What measure of madness fastens their hearts?
1000 jazz masters sunk down to the bottom of the sea
What rabid religion drives them apart?
In the beginning
There was void
The face moved over
Then there was noise
Fire and water
Heaven and stone
Radio kings
Hammer and throne
Uncounted Les Pauls ascend to the sky
Where there was darkness now only light
Uncounted jazz masters rising up from the bottom of the sea
The wicked are levelled the righteous are free
Uncounted Les Pauls explode and take flight
Where there was darkness now only light
Uncounted jazz masters erupting from the bottom of the sea
The wicked are leveled the righteous are free
Offering the residents a better way
Before you know it you're in line and chanting refrain
They reel you in and then they turn you out
First they tell ya you're gonna lose your soul
And then they tell ya find another home
And then ya take a good look around
And they stole your rock and roll
And once it's gone you'll never get it back
1000 Les Pauls burning in a field
What rabid religion poisons their minds?
1000 jazz masters thrown into the sea
What measure of madness governs their time?
In the beginning
There was void
The hand moved over
Then there was noise
Fire and water
Heaven and stone

1000 Les Pauls smoulder in a field
What measure of madness fastens their hearts?
1000 jazz masters sunk down to the bottom of the sea
What rabid religion drives them apart?
In the beginning
There was void

Book, Saddle, And Go lyrics - Clutch
I may not got a lot of money
But I got self-esteem
And in the golden age of travel
That’s really all you need
I know I’m ugly, honey
But look where I’m coming from
I got a pony down state
And that pony born to run
Book, saddle and go,
Hey, that’s the name of the game
Book, saddle and go
Canned heat, that’s the name of the game
They call me the robber,
Highway man
Don’t wanna hurt nobody
Just doing what I can
The galley after hours
Man the captain just won’t listen
“If you don’t turn this boat around,
I’m gonna kick the damn doors in”
Book, saddle and go,
Hey, that’s the name of the game
Book, saddle and go
Canned heat, that’s the name of the game
Pinkerton man, murdering bastard
I’m gonna get even, get even with you
Get even with you
Pinkerton man, murdering bastard
I’m gonna get even, get even with you
Get even with you
You can take down my old violin
And play it all you please
For at this time tomorrow
Well it’ll be of no use to me
I know they’re gonna hang me
Tomorrow I’ll be dead
Though I never even harmed a hair
On anybody’s head.
Book, saddle and go,
Hey, that’s the name of the game
Book, saddle and go
Canned heat, that’s the name of the game
Pinkerton man, murdering bastard
I’m gonna get even, get even with you
Get even with you
Pinkerton man, you murdering bastard
I’m gonna get even, get even with you
Get even with you
Pinkerton man, murdering bastard
I’m gonna get even, get even with you
Get even with you
But I got self-esteem
And in the golden age of travel
That’s really all you need
I know I’m ugly, honey
But look where I’m coming from
I got a pony down state
And that pony born to run

Hey, that’s the name of the game

Oh, Isabella lyrics - Clutch
Ratted out in hades
Forced to return
To rockville
With nothing but a rucksack
Hard lesson learned
Foul council of leeches
Want silence and bedlam
Take refuge
And a dagger to the bites
Then suck out the venom
Oh Isabella
Your ship's run aground
Kneel at the sword
Scream at the clouds
Oh Isabella
There's smoke on the wind
Jaguar and fever
Have taken your men
Running on the tightrobe
Woven by spider
While the canyon
Teeming with shoppers
Grows wider and wider
What demons possessing
The clock and the compass?
Surrender
Run headlong to the void
The reptile's among us!
Oh Isabella
Your ship's run aground
Kneel at the sword
Scream at the clouds
Oh Isabella
There's smoke on the wind
Jaguar and fever
Have taken your men
Chained to the oxcart
With a chest full of arrows
The villagers
Are burdened with cedar
By back and by barrow
Scrub brush from the wasteland
Snake in a tree
Remember
When they throw the torches in
Breathe, breathe, breathe
Oh Isabella
Your ship's run aground
Kneel at the sword
Scream at the clouds
Oh Isabella
There's smoke on the wind
Jaguar and fever
Have taken your men
Oh Isabella
Your ship's run aground
Kneel at the sword
Scream at the clouds
Oh Isabella
There's smoke on the wind
Jaguar and fever
Have taken your men
Forced to return
To rockville
With nothing but a rucksack
Hard lesson learned
Foul council of leeches
Want silence and bedlam
Take refuge
And a dagger to the bites
Then suck out the venom
Oh Isabella
Your ship's run aground
Kneel at the sword
Scream at the clouds
Oh Isabella
There's smoke on the wind
Jaguar and fever
Have taken your men

The Wolf Man Kindly Requests... lyrics - Clutch
All right!
You wanna know my political persuasion?
Well, sugar, I howl at the moon
At the moon - can you dig it?
Would you like some more information?
There´s a buzz killer in the room
In the room - can you dig it?
Party´s over you all got to go
The wolf man is coming out
Party´s over you all got to go
The sooner the better
The wolf man is coming out
Let me tell you about my strategy
I set small fire
Drive big game, drive big game
I think you know what I´m talking about!
Yeah!
Your ma told you not to come but you had to find out
Girl you shoud´ve listened
Your pa begged you not to come but you had to find out
Well, now you know
Well, now you know
I swear it´s not you - I promise it´s me
When the sun goes down - I tend to lunacy
I swear it´s not you - I promise it´s me
When the sun goes down - I tend to lunacy
Yeah!
So many people say my mind is a ghetto
Obviously they´ve been gentrified
Gentrified - and I got no time for that
Party´s over you all got to go
The wolf man is coming out
Party´s over you all got to go
The sooner the better
The wolf man is coming out
Party´s over you all got to go

Motherless Child lyrics - Clutch
Every last blind pulled when I walk down the street.
The only sound I hear is my tired heartbeat.
Sometimes I feel just like a motherless child.
This place once had a name.
The people once had faces.
In every town I find it's the same sad situation.
Sometimes I feel just like a countryless man.
My father tried to break me, my mother she tried to raise,
The county correct me from my wild ways.
I once saw figures about a mile off.
So I waited in the woods until they were gone.
Sometimes I feel just like a wandering dog.
My father tried to break me, my mother she tried to raise,
The county correct me from my wild ways.
The only sound I hear is my tired heartbeat.
Sometimes I feel just like a motherless child.
This place once had a name.
The people once had faces.
In every town I find it's the same sad situation.
Sometimes I feel just like a countryless man.
My father tried to break me, my mother she tried to raise,
The county correct me from my wild ways.
I once saw figures about a mile off.
So I waited in the woods until they were gone.
Sometimes I feel just like a wandering dog.
My father tried to break me, my mother she tried to raise,
The county correct me from my wild ways.
Struck Down lyrics - Clutch
Struck down by a vision of beauty
Said I was struck down by a long legged archer
Oh the city was hot, but my blood ran cold
Oh, the city went dark, keep calm and carry on.
I was a young man, only 19 years old.
I was a young man so very far away from home.
Ah she got me, struck down, right through the heart, struck down.
Ah she shot me, struck down, right through the heart, struck down.
Keep calm and carry on, reefer madness quiets the falling bomb.
I want to be an old man, damn you, von Braun.
I've been laid low by a blinding light.
I've been torn asunder by the banshee's wail.
Ah she got me, struck down, right through the heart, struck down.
Ah she shot me, struck down, right through the heart, struck down.
Keep calm and carry on, reefer madness quiets the falling bomb.
I was a young man, only 19 years old.
I was a very young man so very far away from home.
I was imprisoned by a vision of beauty.
I was struck down by the long legged archer.
Keep calm and carry on, reefer madness quiets the falling bomb.
Said I was struck down by a long legged archer
Oh the city was hot, but my blood ran cold
Oh, the city went dark, keep calm and carry on.
I was a young man, only 19 years old.
I was a young man so very far away from home.
Ah she got me, struck down, right through the heart, struck down.
Ah she shot me, struck down, right through the heart, struck down.
Keep calm and carry on, reefer madness quiets the falling bomb.
I want to be an old man, damn you, von Braun.
I've been laid low by a blinding light.
I've been torn asunder by the banshee's wail.
Ah she got me, struck down, right through the heart, struck down.
Ah she shot me, struck down, right through the heart, struck down.
Keep calm and carry on, reefer madness quiets the falling bomb.
I was a young man, only 19 years old.
I was a very young man so very far away from home.
I was imprisoned by a vision of beauty.
I was struck down by the long legged archer.
Keep calm and carry on, reefer madness quiets the falling bomb.
50,000 Unstoppable Watts lyrics - Clutch
Airstreams tethered together like silver sleeping oxen
All the best locations are located on the margins
Suited for telescoping the interstellar scene
It's a mean killer in the daylight, but that's life for you and me
It's a reliable source of information.
Fifty thousand unstoppable watts.
Anthrax, ham radio, and liquor.
What if I told you they been lying
About that double wide with water rights?
And now the town cars are back again!
They sold you some old line
About the greater good and sacrifice
Your friends from Langley are back again!
It's a reliable source of information
Fifty thousand unstoppable watts.
Anthrax, ham radio, and liquor.
Coming at you live!
It's just some people can only see the stars
In the reflection from big black cars.
It's a reliable source of information
Fifty thousand unstoppable watts.
Abraham Lincoln lyrics - Clutch
Oh Abraham Lincoln, carried across the street.
Oh Abraham Lincoln, carried across the street.
The assassin, the coward,
shot him in the head.
The assassin, the serpent,
Struck him then he fled.
Oh many many many people, gather to hear the word.
Oh many many many people, tremble at what they've heard.
Snickering, drunkards, from cover of dark.
Treachery's their master,
murder is their heart.
From the table, rips his chair.
Cross the people on the stairs.
Watch the limbs running for.
All across a empty bar.
Oh Abraham Lincoln, buried him in his grave.
Oh Abraham Lincoln, buried him in his grave.
The assassin, the coward, no grave for you.
The assassin, the actor, no cross for you.
From the table, rips his chair.
Cross the people on the stairs.
Watch the limbs running for.
All across a empty bar.
Oh Abraham Lincoln, carried across the street.
The assassin, the coward,
shot him in the head.
The assassin, the serpent,
Struck him then he fled.
Oh many many many people, gather to hear the word.
Oh many many many people, tremble at what they've heard.
Snickering, drunkards, from cover of dark.
Treachery's their master,
murder is their heart.
From the table, rips his chair.
Cross the people on the stairs.
Watch the limbs running for.
All across a empty bar.
Oh Abraham Lincoln, buried him in his grave.
Oh Abraham Lincoln, buried him in his grave.
The assassin, the coward, no grave for you.
The assassin, the actor, no cross for you.
From the table, rips his chair.
Cross the people on the stairs.
Watch the limbs running for.
All across a empty bar.
Minotaur lyrics - Clutch
In a city of crooked alleys,
Crookeder women and wicked men.
Dim lamps in the rumor mill
Suspicious kith and unkind kin
Haruspectre General
Sleeping soldiers in the field
Below the elders conspire
To turn the merciless and massive wheel
Strange cousins from the west overstay their welcome
Locked in among skeletons
Broken hearted and damned
Sorry to have to break it to you friend
But life seldom goes exactly as we plan
Strange cousins from the west overstay their welcome
Peculiar manner and strange dress
Who will ever dare to tell them?
The city's always thriving
Hungry bellows of the Minotaur
Everyday more are arriving,
And everyday it requires more
Unexpected circumstance
We must not delay
You have all been so very very kind to us
And we will return the favor one day.
Fate is the idiot's excuse!
Freedom is the sucker's dream!
But we hope you find some measure of comfort
In considering us to be your family
Strange cousins from the west overstay their welcome
Peculiar manner and strange dress
Who will ever dare to tell them?
Crookeder women and wicked men.
Dim lamps in the rumor mill
Suspicious kith and unkind kin
Haruspectre General
Sleeping soldiers in the field
Below the elders conspire
To turn the merciless and massive wheel
Strange cousins from the west overstay their welcome
Locked in among skeletons
Broken hearted and damned
Sorry to have to break it to you friend
But life seldom goes exactly as we plan
Strange cousins from the west overstay their welcome
Peculiar manner and strange dress
Who will ever dare to tell them?
The city's always thriving
Hungry bellows of the Minotaur
Everyday more are arriving,
And everyday it requires more
Unexpected circumstance
We must not delay
You have all been so very very kind to us
And we will return the favor one day.
Fate is the idiot's excuse!
Freedom is the sucker's dream!
But we hope you find some measure of comfort
In considering us to be your family
Strange cousins from the west overstay their welcome
Peculiar manner and strange dress
Who will ever dare to tell them?
The Amazing Kreskin lyrics - Clutch
In the raining park the chessmen play,
The faithful atheists refuse to pray,
The steam-works weep, the addicts do not care,
Crowd of cold people stand by and stare
The garbage eaters, their many retainers
Come to collect all the foul remainders
The smoke hangs heavy, the wrecking ball swings
In the clockwork of a collapsing thing
Wasted plastic empire's golden age, chemical wedding
Citizens in their refineries cheer the nuptial bedding
The hourglass is turning
On a shore of iron, cutters, and clippers
Paper, rock, rock, paper, and scissors
On a road of skulls their story moves on
It's a bumpy ride and very, very, very long
In the blue sky the seagulls fly over garbage.
Are we the ocean? Are we the desert?
Are we the garbage? Who's to say?
The faithful atheists refuse to pray,
The steam-works weep, the addicts do not care,
Crowd of cold people stand by and stare
The garbage eaters, their many retainers
Come to collect all the foul remainders
The smoke hangs heavy, the wrecking ball swings
In the clockwork of a collapsing thing
Wasted plastic empire's golden age, chemical wedding
Citizens in their refineries cheer the nuptial bedding
The hourglass is turning
On a shore of iron, cutters, and clippers
Paper, rock, rock, paper, and scissors
On a road of skulls their story moves on
It's a bumpy ride and very, very, very long
In the blue sky the seagulls fly over garbage.
Are we the ocean? Are we the desert?
Are we the garbage? Who's to say?
Witchdoctor lyrics - Clutch
In the mailbox, what I find?
Pepco hello and no reply.
From Tecumseh, Michigan.
Urgent letter to a friend.
January 30th, at no cost.
Survive the fire with Mr. Frost.
The Mark, the Beast, Armageddon in the Middle East.
But while we still have the time, please tell me,
Witchdoctor!
With Babylonian passion they built a bridge to the sky.
Loaded it up with Mother Earth, never got to asking why.
In Babylonian fashion. that bridge fell down from the sky.
And they spent the next five thousand years.
Scratching their heads and wondering why.
Abundance in the end times, song and Praise!
The dough and the dead will both will be raised.
The Word The Law, Armageddon in America.
But while we still have the time, please tell me,
Witchdoctor!

Let A Poor Man Be lyrics - Clutch
I'm gonna move to the outskirts of town
Where none of your friends are hanging around
That's right, I'm gonna move to the other side of town
Where none of your business is hanging around
Woman, please let a poor man be. Let a poor man be
Columbia, girl, please let a poor man be. Let a poor man be
I'm gonna build a castle out of Goodyear tires,
Cinderblock and busted doors; that's where I'll retire.
Gonna dig a mote. Fill it up with ale.
Not much of a defense, I know, but the supply never fails.
When you come knocking all in tears wringing hands and genuflecting,
You'll understand that I am a busy man and my subjects demand my attention.
These walls don't build themselves and I am running out of time.
So if you desire anything else, you had better get in line.
Where none of your friends are hanging around
That's right, I'm gonna move to the other side of town

Freakonomics lyrics - Clutch
What kind of ugly are they talking about?
It's just straight up cold evil.
What kind of nonsense are they going on about?
Do they suffer from the fever?
Nothing's gonna satisfy them
Till it all goes Chernobyl
No, nothing's ever really gonna satisfy them
Until the virus goes mobile.
If you didn't then well now you know
Outside is an army of antlers
I hate to say it but I told you so
Only the freaks have all the answers.
Red threat! Helicopters! Super-Mind-Control!
Stockholm Syndrome! Love your captors!
Uranium! Super-Mind-Control.
It's gonna rain, rain down in buckets.
Watch it happen, a natural fact.
They're gonna lose and their not gonna like it.
Watch it happen. Supernatural act.
It's just straight up cold evil.
What kind of nonsense are they going on about?
Do they suffer from the fever?
Nothing's gonna satisfy them
Till it all goes Chernobyl
No, nothing's ever really gonna satisfy them
Until the virus goes mobile.
If you didn't then well now you know
Outside is an army of antlers

Sleestak Lightning lyrics - Clutch
I send pictures through the mail
Well documented and very detailed
To politicians and big celebrities,
But none of them are believing in me
And I await their response
Some send none, most send cops
But man it's a dire situation
And I will risk the public humiliation
Sleestak lightning on my trail
It's a dire situation, they are on my trail
West Virginia has its Moth Man,
Pan handlers' got their Skunk Ape.
But I have a tazer and night vision goggles,
Costco rolls of black duct tape.
It's got red eyes, it's got razor claws,
It's got green skin, no it ain't a meth-head.
And after studying its behavior, objectively and critically,
I believe I have a reliable method.
Well documented and very detailed

You Can't Stop Progress lyrics - Clutch
"Though it's the opening track, You Can't Stop Progress is one of the last songs we wrote for Beale Street. It is sort of a preface to the next track, Power Player. We happened to perform it one night before Power Player, and it became apparent that the two were joined at the hip. We first heard the Bad Brains 20 years ago and in this tune it's obvious that they're still influencing us."
Yes, I'll be a responsible member
of this great and bless'd society.
I've come to understand the wrongful nature
of gun ownership in the age of monarchy.
But sometimes it's just so hard
to act like the person you weren't born to be.
Felonious behavior. Countless misdemeanors.
Impersonating an officer of the law.
Bonafide man of action! How you like that?
Bonafide man of action! How you like that?
You can't stop, you can't stop progress.
You cant's stop, you can't stop, no, no, no
You can't stop, you can't stop progress.
You cant's stop, you can't stop, no, no, no.
I understand there's no victimless crimes.
That being said I feel rather victimized.
And I will seek substantial compensation.
Whether legally, legal-ish, or otherwise.
But sometimes it's such a hassle
to sit patiently outside the open gates of a loaded castle.
Felonious behavior. Countless misdemeanors.
Impersonating an officer of the law.
Bonafide man of action! How you like that?
Bonafide man of action! How you like that?
You can't stop, you can't stop progress.
You cant's stop, you can't stop, no, no, no

Power Player lyrics - Clutch
"This is the first song we wrote for the record. The idea for these lyrics came about while we were doing a lot of international flying. We even had the rare luxury of flying first class once [once being the operative word]. It's a whole different scene up there, hot towels and cheese trays. The rock band definitely came across as a booze soaked horde of barbarians. That, coupled with some late night notes taken in the lobby of the Hotel Ukraine in Moscow brought about this tune."
Diplomatically, emphatically deny
any prior knowledge shape or kind.
You don't know nothing about a Russian hooker.
Some bloke broke in and straight up took her.
Western European journalists, devious little monkeys,
They're bloody relentless.
Call the consulate, and burn the evidence,
Don't speak another word, just burn the evidence.
I'm not giving you attitude, I just want another drink.
I don't care about the altitude, I just want another drink.
Get your hands off me, you don't know who I am.
I'm a power player, I'm a power player.
Get your hands off me, you don't know who I am.
I'm a power player, I'm a power player.
You can always tell the terrorist by his cologne and the watch on his wrist.
It says I'm the type of man that can kick off anywhere, kick off anywhere.
I'm not giving you attitude, I just want another drink.
I don't care about the altitude, I just want another drink.
Movers, shakers, money makers, deal breakers, and dogs,
In this game you've got to lose a couple of your pawns.
I'm not giving you attitude, I just want another drink.
I don't care about the altitude, I just want another drink.

The Devil & Me lyrics - Clutch
"These lyrics are imagined from two viewpoints. The first is God as he sits on his front porch giving his old buddy Lucifer a hard time for double-crossing him. The other is from the dark lord himself. He realizes that he fucked up, and he's got to hit the road. Oscar Hernandez and Lee Brintnall provided clap track. Killer claps... the best."
The devil and me had a falling out.
Violation of contract beyond a shadow of a doubt.
Wherever he go, whomever he meet.
He got to cross my house on the other side of the street.
And you know that's the truth. Now here's the part that the devil sings while he's
hanging his head in a hard rain:
Where I'm headed, I don't know.
Down this path, we all go.
Grace and luck, blood from stone.
Got nowhere to call my home.
What comes around goes around three-fold or more.
Now you can't get off of that killing floor.
I'm going back to Tennessee, back where I come from.
Gonna head back to Beale Street, Beale Street and Oblivion.
The devil and me, bad blood and beef.
An undisciplined child, a liar and a thief.
It's a low down shame, we were the best of friends.
But I suppose all good things got to come to an end.
What comes around goes around three-fold or more.
Now you can't get off of that killing floor.
I'm going back to Tennessee, back where I come from.
Gonna head back to Beale Street, Beale Street and Oblivion.
I'm going back to Tennessee, back where I come from.
Gonna head back to Beale Street, Beale Street and Oblivion.
Gotta get off of that killing floor.
The devil and me had a falling out.
Violation of contract beyond a shadow of a doubt.
Wherever he go, whomever he meet.
He got to cross my house on the other side of the street.
And you know that's the truth. Now here's the part that the devil sings while he's
hanging his head in a hard rain:
Where I'm headed, I don't know.
Down this path, we all go.
Grace and luck, blood from stone.

Now you can't get off of that killing floor.
I'm going back to Tennessee, back where I come from.
Gonna head back to Beale Street, Beale Street and Oblivion.
The devil and me, bad blood and beef.

It's a low down shame, we were the best of friends.
But I suppose all good things got to come to an end.
What comes around goes around three-fold or more.

White's Ferry lyrics - Clutch
"Every once in a while I go out on a drive through some old country roads in Maryland and Virginia. One of these routes goes over the Potomac via White's Ferry. This song is about some of the sights and experiences of one particular drive in September of 2006. Bryan Hinkley from Never Got Caught does the duel lead with Tim on this one, as well as wee tasty bits throughout."
Only the dirt I do believe.
As memory vanishes among the leaves.
Wizard of tickets is always glad to charge a pilgrim's fare.
Jubilee's generally early. Let's take the country air.
Mistreating granite, limestone, and clay. It's a shameful soil.
But all grows well on the floodplain tract if you can afford the toil.
Cradled in ivy, we will allow
the moss to prosper upon our brows.
Boxer rebellion, the Holy Child. They all pay their rent.
But none together can testify to rhythm of a road well bent.
Saddles and zip codes, passports and gates, the Jones' keep.
In August the water is trickling, in April it's furious deep.
Wizard of tickets is always glad to charge a pilgrim's fare.
Jubilee's generally early. Let's take the country air.
Mistreating granite, limestone, and clay. It's a shameful soil.
But all grows well on the floodplain tract if you can afford the toil.
Only the dirt I do believe.
Divinity vanishes among the leaves.
Only the dirt I do believe.
As memory vanishes among the leaves.
Wizard of tickets is always glad to charge a pilgrim's fare.
Jubilee's generally early. Let's take the country air.
Mistreating granite, limestone, and clay. It's a shameful soil.
But all grows well on the floodplain tract if you can afford the toil.
Cradled in ivy, we will allow

Child Of The City lyrics - Clutch
"Some say Johannes Trithemius was a magician. Others believe he disguised his science and steganography inside a magical guise as an example of its practical application. Whatever the case, it's good material for rock and roll lyrics."
Child of the city, Mother of the Earth
Baptism by firefly, pinch a parson's purse.
Queen of Cups the Joker's blade is old and dull.
Child of the City
Yet it slices us with the nicest miracles.
Babe in the Wilderness, Father of Creation,
Spinning of the wind, the gathering of nations.
Professor on the Toadstool convene your class.
Babe in the wilderness.
In absentia, please show your hands.
And your feet. Are you touched by a beast?
Wash yourself, live your life. Take the Earth as your wife.
False idol raiser, play the town.
Count up your blessings and melt it down.
Immortal Dominator. Governor of the World.
Sic semper tyrannis. The Fisher and the Pearl.
The bearer of this letter is a charlatan.
Immortal Dominator.
In absentia, please show your hands and your feet
And your feet. Are you touched by a beast?
Wash yourself, live your life. Take the Earth as your wife.
False idol raiser, play the town.
Count up your blessings and melt it down.
All your money now, kid. All your money now, kid.
All your money now, kid. All your money.

Electric Worry lyrics - Clutch
"This song is one part cover song, one part original. Half of each verse is taken from Mississippi Fred McDowell's "Fred's Worried Life Blues." The rest is our own concoction. When we wrote the upbeat part of the song, I couldn't hear the typical blues sentiment. Instead, it kind of became a motivational speaker slapping himself out of a stupor. The chorus "Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Vamanos! Vamanos!" has nothing to do with guns. It got its start long ago when Tim, and I can't recall why, said, "Vamanos! Bang! Bang!" Add a bit of John Lee Hooker and there you go. The ripping harp solo is none other that Five Horse Johnson's Eric Oblander."
Well you made me weep and you made me moan
When you caused me to leave, child, my happy home.
But someday, baby, you ain't gonna worry my life anymore.
I get satisfaction everywhere I go.
Where I lay my head - that's where I call home.
Whether barren pines, or the mission stare,
Take tomorrow's collar and give 'em back the glare.
Bang, bang, bang, bang! Vamanos, vamanos.
Bang, bang, bang! Vamanos, vamanos.
You told everybody in the neighborhood
what a dirty mistreater. That I was no good.
But someday, baby, you ain't gonna worry my life anymore.
Doctor or lawyer, I'll never be.
Life of a drifter - only life for me,
You can have your riches, all the gold you saved.
Cause' ain't room for one thing in everybody's grave.
Bang, bang, bang, bang! Vamanos, vamanos!
Bang, bang, bang! Vamanos, vamanos!
If I had money, like Henry Ford,
Lord, I'd have me a woman, yeah on every road.
But Someday, baby, you ain't gonna worry my life any more.
Invocation of the dummies, requiem for a head,
Cash in at the corner, piles of street cred.
I get satisfaction everywhere I go.
One day baby you'll worry me no more.
Bang, bang, bang, bang! Vamanos, vamanos!
Bang, bang, bang! Vamanos, vamanos!
Well you made me weep and you made me moan
When you caused me to leave, child, my happy home.
But someday, baby, you ain't gonna worry my life anymore.
I get satisfaction everywhere I go.
Where I lay my head - that's where I call home.
Whether barren pines, or the mission stare,
Take tomorrow's collar and give 'em back the glare.
Bang, bang, bang, bang! Vamanos, vamanos.
Bang, bang, bang! Vamanos, vamanos.
You told everybody in the neighborhood
what a dirty mistreater. That I was no good.
But someday, baby, you ain't gonna worry my life anymore.
Doctor or lawyer, I'll never be.
Life of a drifter - only life for me,
You can have your riches, all the gold you saved.
Cause' ain't room for one thing in everybody's grave.
Bang, bang, bang, bang! Vamanos, vamanos!
Bang, bang, bang! Vamanos, vamanos!

But Someday, baby, you ain't gonna worry my life any more.
Invocation of the dummies, requiem for a head,
Cash in at the corner, piles of street cred.
I get satisfaction everywhere I go.
One day baby you'll worry me no more.
Bang, bang, bang, bang! Vamanos, vamanos!
Bang, bang, bang! Vamanos, vamanos!
One Eye Dollar lyrics - Clutch
"When we were touring we got in the habit of jamming Electric Worry straight into One Eye Dollar. We tried to write a new tune that would do the same trick, but nothing was as good. So we said screw it, let's just track it again. I was never happy with the lyrics on the original version, so this was a good opportunity to do some editing."
I been working, one eye dollar, by and by, Lord, by and by.
I got the plans to the Oval office, by and by, Lord, by and by.
In the inner chambers of the president
You will find no crosses only pentagrams.
1600, all the way! That's right brother, all the way!
1600, today's our day!
I been working, one eye dollar, by and by, Lord, by and by.
I got the plans in my front pocket, by and by, Lord, by and by.
I been working like a pack mule every day.
And to think that some of it ends up that way.
1600, all the way! That's right brother, all the way!
1600, today's our day!
Rapture Of Riddley Walker lyrics - Clutch
"Read Russel Hoban's 'Riddley Walker.' It'll explain everything."
Went to the doctor, to see what could be given.
He said, "Sorry, but you've got to do your own livin'."
Went to the pastor, to hear what he would say.
He said, "Sorry, son, come back later some time after judgment day."
There is no safe way out of here. No passage below the dungeon.
No mother ship will save you. So goes the rapture of Riddley Walker.
Churchyard was empty, schoolyard was bare.
Wind in the streets, wind in the air.
Pockets of diamonds, nothing to buy.
Scream out hello and get no reply.
Victims of zombies convene in the park
While any man with dignity makes an easy mark.
Heaven is a long ways away. Heaven is a long, long, long, long ways away.
There is no safe way out of here. No passage below the dungeon.
No mothership will come save you. The rapture of Riddley Walker.
How many-cools of Addom? Party cools of stone?
Hart of the wood shudder. Eusa roam.
Drop-John been climbing on Riddley's back. Follow the power, a natural fact.
Orfing & Ardship, hardship is plain. Hardly Goodparley is ever the same.
Shadows and phantom's convene in the snow.
Among the low whispers are voices you know.
Heaven is a long ways away. Heaven is a long, long, long, long ways away.
There is no safe way out of here. No passage below the dungeon.
No mothership will come save you. The rapture of Riddley Walker.
How many-cools of Addom? Party cools of stone?
Hart of the wood shudder. Eusa roam.
Went to the doctor, to see what could be given.
He said, "Sorry, but you've got to do your own livin'."
Went to the pastor, to hear what he would say.

While any man with dignity makes an easy mark.
Heaven is a long ways away. Heaven is a long, long, long, long ways away.
There is no safe way out of here. No passage below the dungeon.

When Vegans Attack lyrics - Clutch
"I got no problems with vegans. Let's be clear on that. But have you ever met someone who has concocted his or her own convenient first-world philosophy? Cherry picked all those bits of radicalism that appealed to them and threw out the ugly bits? Someone who thinks they're enlightened but are really jut a victim of the own peer driven self-congratulatory bullshit? I have. There's lots of those types in Washington D.C."
How's that hardcore fanzine? Still take the piss?
Y and T got records, demos on cassette.
Summer of the seven inch. Too cool for school.
Manifestos at Kinko's, pinko commies play no fools.
I feel the spirit moving over me.
There are clouds beneath my feet.
When vegans attack on ten speed bikes.
Tattoos with meaning, American Spirit Lights.
It's hard to smoke 'em when you got to be runnin'
Congressional and D.C.P.D.
Lafayette Park undercovers,
The saddest sight you ever see, ever see.
Tear gas electric! You know I can't quit this riot.
Strictly professional insurrectionist kid, and I can't deny it.
I feel the spirit moving over me.
There are clouds beneath my feet.
When vegans attack on ten speed bikes.
Tattoos with meaning, American Spirit Lights .
Freshmen in fatigues. You know he's fighting for his right.
Copious note taker. American Spirit Lights.
I feel the spirit moving over me.
I feel the spirit moving over me.
There are clouds beneath my feet.
When vegans attack on ten speed bikes.
Tattoos with meaning, American Spirit Lights .
Freshmen in fatigues. You know he's fighting for his right.
Copious note taker. American Spirit Lights.
Opossum Minister lyrics - Clutch
"In the early 1980s' my family lived in a typically terrible pre-planned suburban development called Montgomery Village. Our house bordered a historical town called Prathertown. Prathertown was a free town and I went to school with some Prathers. In the back end of Prathertown there was a lady who lived in a dilapidated home. She had cut outs of wild boars with bloody tusks on her roof, two impossibly colossal rocking chairs, and a collection of saints in her front yard. It was the house we all walked by a bit quicker."
I met a lady down in Prathertown, two rocking chairs.
She said take a seat boy and I'll treat you fair.
Snake charmers cold infidels, get a running start.
Pick up the pieces in the graveyard and unbury my heart.
The wolf howls at midnight, the rooster at the dawn
Opossum minister where you been so long?
Montgomery Village kids, you just look like the type.
You sure you want to know the mysteries? You're but a trifling height.
Families in their den, staring at the box
Opossum minister hen done killed the fox.
Eyes like clouds know you stare.
Count the minutes by the rocking of chairs.
Prathertown unincorporated,
May you stay far unrelated to the wicked ways of Montgomery Village.
There's a darkness deep in their eyes, as if the sun don't rise.
Those poor afflicted people of Montgomery Village
Fake farmers, straight Jezebels, you know the score.
Pick up the pieces in the graveyard and leave 'em at the door.
The master-plan unfolds, silent sinister
Is there any hope left Opossum Minister?
Eyes like clouds know you stare.
Count the minutes by the rocking of chairs.
Prathertown unincorporated,
May you stay far unrelated to the wicked ways of Montgomery Village.
There's a darkness deep in their eyes, as if the sun don't rise.
Those poor afflicted people of Montgomery Village
Prathertown unincorporated,

Black Umbrella lyrics - Clutch
"Some people don't like politics in their songs. I don't either. But some characters loom so large in our lives that they are fair game to be used as fodder for creating fictions. Both Bryan and Eric strong-armed themselves onto tape yet again."
Has your child completed his or her suspicious activity booklet?
Don't let this summer go to waste.
The enemy is preparing their children, are you?
Time to show them who's boss.
Moloch demands fresh blood to maintain the appetite of his mechanical heart.
Will you sacrifice your first born like Abraham would his Isaac?
Will you sacrifice your first born like Abraham would his Isaac?
Tell me why, Dick Cheney, underneath my bed?
Hell no, that ain't cool!
Tendin' to the lips of a shrunken head.
No sir, that ain't cool.
Come on now take one for the team.
Stick it to the man, stick it to the man.
Raise the dagger high above Isaac
drive it down as hard as you can.
Shiny Master Cadillackness, halos suit you well.
All goes exactly as planned, so many tomorrows to sell.
Shiny Master Cadillackness, halos suit you well.
Stand fast, upset the system, so many tomorrows to sell.
Mother, mother, don't want to work on the farm no more.
Father, father, don't want to wear your uniform.
Mary, Mary, keep me safe and comforted.
Father, Father, raise that dagger up above your head.

Do you wonder what is right and what is wrong?

Shiny Master Cadillackness"In Sauget, Illinois there is a club called Pop's. It's on a lawless piece of land with 24 hour strip bars and an O.T.B. I once went into the O.T.B. facility and saw the strangest collection of people one could imagine. It was Mos Eisley spaceport. A woman dressed like she had come straight from a jazz funeral walked in and no one seemed to notice her but myself. I guess anomaly is typical in Sauget. Eric plays on this track as well."
Money Mike, Pistol Pete
both went running down the street.
Police and snitches, lover's lane.
Hot summer. Hot rain.
Hit the bricks.
The girl got her tricks.
She's the Mississippi terror,
and there's none the fairer.
O.T.B. was jammed.
Paper changing hands.
Nothing left but smoke and cellar
And a Woman with a black umbrella.
Little Lewis lost his shit.
10 to 1, couldn't collect.
Fish Head Phil, Itchy Ike...
say they never got home that night.
Shake the breaker.
That girl ain't no money maker.
She's come to cook all the books,
and flaunt her good looks.

The Incomparable Mr. Flannery lyrics - Clutch
First we get some surgery,
Lose the kids then our identities.
But one thing I know for a fact, Moustache stays right where its at.
REO Speedwagon, Kansas to Boston.
My ankle bracelet, already gone and lost it.
Them yellow jackets keep the tired man from slacking.
Stole my Camaro, primer gray.
Took my suitcase, all my pay.
Ain't got no taillights, grill full of fur.
How could you do this to a man so close to being cured?
We should get together and talk it over
At the Detroiter.
Delaware Destroyers, rocking with Dokken.
You front the money and I'll do all the talking.
Them yellow jackets keep the tired man from slacking.
Stole my Camaro, primer gray.
Took my suitcase, all my pay.
Stole my Camaro, primer gray.
Took my suitcase, all my pay.
Ain't got no taillights, grill full of fur.
How could you do this to a man so close to being cured?
Come a little closer honey, I won't bite ya.
One more lager and I might learn to like ya.
Stole my Camaro, primer gray.
Took my suitcase, all my pay.
Stole my Camaro, primer gray.
Took my suitcase, all my pay.
Ain't got no taillights, grill full of fur.
How could you do this to a man so close to being cured?
Ain't got no taillights, grill full of fur.

Burning Beard lyrics - Clutch
Every day I wake up we drink a lot of coffee and watch the CNN
Every day I wake up to a bowl of clover honey and let the locusts fly in.
Lobsterbacks attack the town again
Wrap all my things in aluminum
Beams of darkness streak across the sky
Pink rays from the ancient satellite
Every time I look out my window same three dogs looking back at me.
Every time I open my windows cranes fly in to terrorize me.
The power of the Holy Ghost
The power of the Holy Ghost
Shadow of the New Praetorian
Tipping cows in fields Elysian
Saturnalia for all you have
The seven habits of the highly infected calve
Swan diving off the tongues of crippled giants
International Business Machine
Choking on bits of barley bread crumbs
Oh this burning beard I have come undone.
It's just as I've feared. I have, I have come undone.
Bugger dumb the last of academe.
Okkam's razor makes the cutting clean.
Shaven like a banker, lilac vegetal.
Break the glass ceiling and golden parachute on down.
The power of the Holy Ghost comes to town.
Shadow of the New Praetorian
Tipping cows in fields Elysian
Saturnalia for all you have
The seven habits of the highly infected calve.
Every day I wake up to a bowl of clover honey and let the locusts fly in.
Lobsterbacks attack the town again
Wrap all my things in aluminum
Beams of darkness streak across the sky
Pink rays from the ancient satellite
Every time I look out my window same three dogs looking back at me.
Every time I open my windows cranes fly in to terrorize me.
The power of the Holy Ghost
The power of the Holy Ghost
Shadow of the New Praetorian
Tipping cows in fields Elysian
Saturnalia for all you have
The seven habits of the highly infected calve
Swan diving off the tongues of crippled giants
International Business Machine
Choking on bits of barley bread crumbs
Oh this burning beard I have come undone.
It's just as I've feared. I have, I have come undone.
Bugger dumb the last of academe.
Okkam's razor makes the cutting clean.
Shaven like a banker, lilac vegetal.
Break the glass ceiling and golden parachute on down.
The power of the Holy Ghost comes to town.
Shadow of the New Praetorian
Tipping cows in fields Elysian
Saturnalia for all you have
The seven habits of the highly infected calve.
Gullah lyrics - Clutch
Ain't no doubt Jesus sees us
Acting foolishly on American Band Stand
Agog with spastic baskets, the latest fashions
Here I am Here I am Here I am
But that chin music sound, oh how it drown
Gotta shake 'em on down
Scaling up the heights of folly.
Scaling up the heights of folly.
Kill the lights and bring the music down. Everybody be quiet.
Sudden movement on the Serengeti, get ready Freddy,
Opportunity only knocks once.
Never mind the fat ones, just go for the slow ones
See how they run see how they run see how they run.
While you busy lighting roman candles on the yellow cake
They shook you on down.
When the rain start falling, boatman calling,
Shake 'em on down.
The flood receding, the mountain appears,
Send out the black bird, send out the dove.
You Babel rabble-rousers
In polyester trousers
Big bright cities.
Ain't no doubt Vishnu missed you, then Kali kissed you,
Better get busy. Better get busy. Better get busy.
Days get shorter, air gets colder,
Tune on in to the N.O.A.A. radio
Scaling up the heights of folly.
Scaling up the heights of folly.
While you busy lighting roman candles on the yellow cake
They shook you on down.
When the rain start falling, boatman calling,
Shake 'em on down.
While you busy lighting roman candles on the yellow cake
They shook you on down.
When the rain start falling, boatman calling,
Shake 'em on down.
The flood receding, the mountain appears,
Send out the black bird, send out the dove.

Mice & Gods lyrics - Clutch
Silver women on the OMNI magazine
They got the future precisely laid out as I need.
That Lux Aeterna sound is so frightening.
Holding hands with Lucifer is never that enlightening.
So fire it up. Fire it and the flesh be damned,
Fire it up. Yeah, that's the ticket now kick out the jams.
Engineer the future now. Damn tomorrow, future now!
Throw the switches, prime the charge,
Yesterday's for mice and gods.
Life inside the biosphere, dodecahedron fever's here.
Sporting scarlet letters of genetic imperfection, dear.
Love child in the reeds. Take a sample for the breed.
Should have left him in the stream. Cooing at the smitten queen.
So fire it up. Fire it and the flesh be damned,
Fire it up. Yeah, that's the ticket now kick out the jams.
Engineer the future now. Damn tomorrow, future now!
Throw the switches, prime the charge,
Yesterday's for mice and gods.
Slowly, broken windows returning to the sand
The economic factors are no longer relevant.
That empty city sound is so frightening.
Neolithic fear is such a motivating factory.
So fire it up. Fire it and the flesh be damned,
Fire it up. Yeah, that's the ticket now kick out the jams.
Engineer the future now. Damn tomorrow, future now!
Throw the switches, prime the charge,
Yesterday's for mice and gods.
They got the future precisely laid out as I need.
That Lux Aeterna sound is so frightening.
Holding hands with Lucifer is never that enlightening.
So fire it up. Fire it and the flesh be damned,

Should have left him in the stream. Cooing at the smitten queen.
So fire it up. Fire it and the flesh be damned,
Fire it up. Yeah, that's the ticket now kick out the jams.
Engineer the future now. Damn tomorrow, future now!
Throw the switches, prime the charge,
Yesterday's for mice and gods.
Slowly, broken windows returning to the sand
The economic factors are no longer relevant.
That empty city sound is so frightening.
Neolithic fear is such a motivating factory.
So fire it up. Fire it and the flesh be damned,
Fire it up. Yeah, that's the ticket now kick out the jams.
Engineer the future now. Damn tomorrow, future now!
Throw the switches, prime the charge,
Yesterday's for mice and gods.
Pulaski Skyway lyrics - Clutch
Oh, but to just dance on steel, the Sky Pulaski way.
By the fires of Elizabeth, never cease to amaze.
So hats off to the industry's casualties
Tra loo tray lay.
Oh that swamp full of grabbing hands.
Pull you under New Amsterdam.
Chinese boxes hold their secrets well.
How many are there one can never tell.
Got to get religion, they gonna join that underground church
Even the mole people got to get religion.
They gonna join that underground church.
Art class for the bourgeoisies, lab rats for the cat.
Real estate moguls, Chump Towers,
When the wind blows you can hear the windows go rat a tat rat a tat tat tat.
Jimmy Hoffa in the Meadowlands, weighing down that union man.
Grab his ankles, stevedores,
Oh how those Jets do roar.
Got to get religion, they gonna join that underground church
Even the mole people got to get religion.
They gonna join that underground church.
Oh but to just dine on sewage, cold seagull pie.
Wrestle albino alligators and spin the good lie.
Oh that swamp full of grabbing hands.
Pull you under New Amsterdam.
Chinese boxes hold their secrets well.
How many are there one can never tell.
Got to get religion, they gonna join that underground church
Even the mole people got to get religion.
They gonna join that underground church.
By the fires of Elizabeth, never cease to amaze.
So hats off to the industry's casualties
Tra loo tray lay.
Oh that swamp full of grabbing hands.
Pull you under New Amsterdam.
Chinese boxes hold their secrets well.
How many are there one can never tell.
Got to get religion, they gonna join that underground church
Even the mole people got to get religion.
They gonna join that underground church.

Never Be Moved lyrics - Clutch
I know we came here to get our good times on,
Hold the whole world in our hand and greet the dawn with open arms.
So make a contribution if you have been amused
But before we depart my brothers and sisters I have some heavy news.
Oh how it breaks my heart this photograph.
Several in the ministry practice a fuzzy math.
And some of us wear the robes of the righteous
Are a little more next of kin
To the Sleestak, the wicked one who makes a meal of our sins.
Ain't no telling how much longer but we will never be moved.
Ain't no telling how much longer but we will never be moved.
Woe be the architect of our city, cruel leveler, the hillock strangler.
Bold pusher of the cold bone index
Through the knotted bowels of the old alleyways.
Read the future a false haruspex.
Recall how he coaxed us out of the green plains.
All of us, dumb eyed at the sheer number. So long ago it does not matter.
Woe be architect in his slumber, for the Watcher never sleeps.
And on that day there will be rejoicing and dancing streets.
Ain't no telling how much longer but we will never be moved.
Ain't no telling how much longer but we will never be moved.
Get your evolution on.
Good St. Charles Darwin wrote his gospel down
So keep your eyes turned to the sky and your ears down to the ground.
Get your evolution on.
Ain't no telling how much longer but we will never be moved.
Ain't no telling how much longer but we will never be moved.
Ain't no telling how much longer but we will never be moved.
Ain't no telling how much longer but we will never be moved.

Ribonucleic acid freak out, the power of prayer.
Long halls of science and all the lunatics committed there.
Robot Lords of Tokyo, SMILE TASTE KITTENS!
Did you not know that the royal hunting grounds are always forbidden?
Are you rolling tape now? Bits and pieces large and small
Sector, vector, eat them all.

Among the metal ones a messenger will soon arrive.

Circus Maximus lyrics - Clutch
Will you be entertained by beast and knives?
Vital mentalisms will blow your minds!
Cthulu's red headed step child, quite the precocious babe.
We like to keep it on the D.L. because our clientele prefers it that way
The seven legged sow will see to the after-show.
Don't you think the candelabra gives a pleasant glow?
Now may I present to you the basilisk?
Please don your goggles if you wish to resist.
From the fiery depths of the planet's core
The never sleeping for wont of eating unholy stench of the manticore.
Please produce your access pass, no photographs please.
Some of our guests are how shall I say? Hyperbolic V.I.P.
There is a velvet room for the discriminating pack.
Celebrities and tentacles regard the beast with two backs.
The seven legged sow will see to the after-show.
Don't you think the candelabra gives a pleasant glow?
Paparazzi! World wide video debut!
Paparazzi! World wide video debut!
Paparazzi! World wide video debut!
Paparazzi! World wide video debut!
And just when you thought it could get no stranger,
May I present the semblance of a Scandinavian doppelganger.
From the frozen depths of a forgotten fjord,
The never sleeping for wont of eating unholy stench of the manticore,
Vital mentalisms will blow your minds!
Cthulu's red headed step child, quite the precocious babe.

10,000 Witnesses lyrics - Clutch
After defying the grip of the hangman's noose
And recovering my cognizance,
Spun the compass North by Northwest
And took liberty out for a long slow dance.
Took a good look around, what did I see?
A big red tent and people coming in like the tide of the sea.
I ducked in to catch the shade, Preacher jump up all ablaze.
"They say this year rock is coming back, Jack.
White gnashing teeth like wolves in the pack.
Carnivorous, no mercy hon.
There's plenty here for everyone so come get you some!"
10,000 witnesses, show 'em how it's done, son.
Fist full of cottonmouth, rock that podium.
Walk on the ashes, no half stepping, kid.
Their fans are flashing in expectation.
All right now!
"They say this year rock is coming back, Jack.
White gnashing teeth like wolves in the pack.
Carnivorous, no mercy son.
There's plenty here for everyone so come get you some!"
Living on the lamb and all cut loose,
Number of the Saints march on in.
Gonna find my executioners
And show them exactly what it means to live.
10,000 witnesses, show 'em how it's done, son.
Fist full of cottonmouth, rock that podium.
Walk on the ashes, no half stepping, kid.
Their fans are flashing in expectation.
All right now!

Land Of Pleasant Living lyrics - Clutch
Above there is no ending
For the Vodka spinning Mir
All that is is passing
And now is never here
So keep on raging
You frenzied pioneers
No time for the wringing of hands
Strange faced ambassadors, strike up the band
Bust out that Dom Perignon
Johnnie Walker Red on that fairway lawn
Remember tripping on the fourth of July?
Exploding octopuses in disguise?
They picked you up and they never let you down.
Everyone's forgiven in the land of Pleasant Living now.
Yuri Garagin sends
His kindest regards
How those Yankees doing?
Still Rock and Roll and Fancy cars?
But onto pressing matters
Such as the gluttony of the starving stars.
No time for the wringing of hands
Strange faced ambassadors, strike up the band
Bust out that Dom Perignon
Jonnie Walker Red on that fairway lawn
Remember tripping on the fourth of July?
Exploding octopuses in disguise?
They picked you up and they never let you down.
Everyone's forgiven in the land of Pleasant Living now.
For the Vodka spinning Mir
All that is is passing
And now is never here
So keep on raging
You frenzied pioneers
No time for the wringing of hands
Strange faced ambassadors, strike up the band
Bust out that Dom Perignon
Johnnie Walker Red on that fairway lawn
Remember tripping on the fourth of July?
Exploding octopuses in disguise?
They picked you up and they never let you down.
Everyone's forgiven in the land of Pleasant Living now.
Yuri Garagin sends

Bust out that Dom Perignon
Jonnie Walker Red on that fairway lawn
Remember tripping on the fourth of July?
Exploding octopuses in disguise?
They picked you up and they never let you down.
Everyone's forgiven in the land of Pleasant Living now.
Gravel Road lyrics - Clutch
[Words by Mississippi Fred McDowell]
I'm going down that gravel. Gonna take the right hand road.
I'm going down that gravel. Gonna take the right hand road.
And I ain't stopping till my baby's home.
That girl I'm loving got great long curly hair.
That girl I'm loving got great long curly hair.
But her mother and her father sure don't want me there.
I got to study some scheme, Lord, get my baby back to herself.
I got to study some scheme, Lord, get my baby back to herself.
Lord, I love that woman and I don't want nobody else.
I looked down that road just as far as I could see.
There was a bunch of women and they be following me.
The brook run into the ocean, the ocean run into that deep blue sea.
The brook run into the ocean, the river run into that deep blue sea.
You ought to have seen them women, Lord, they be fishing after me.
I'm going down that gravel. Gonna take the right hand road.
I'm going down that gravel. Gonna take the right hand road.
And I ain't stopping till my baby's home.
That girl I'm loving got great long curly hair.
That girl I'm loving got great long curly hair.
But her mother and her father sure don't want me there.
I got to study some scheme, Lord, get my baby back to herself.

Lord, I love that woman and I don't want nobody else.
I looked down that road just as far as I could see.

Who's Been Talking? lyrics - Clutch

My baby caught the train. Left me all alone.

Born With A Moustache And A Supernova, Tossed Off The Cliffs Of Dover.
Washed Up On A Far Away Shore In The Arms Of The Daughter Of The Buffalo.
Mama Said He Was The Chosen One. Reverend Said He Was The Other One.

Promoter (Of Earthbound Causes) lyrics - Clutch
Warmed Up My Motor, Swindled The Promoter
Took A Lunatic For A Ride
And A Little Voice Said Inside My Head
Rosemary Baby, I Got The Thyme
Suffering Madness And The Pharaoh's Plague
I, Akhenaten Tell You Some Other Day
No Thank You, That's Enough For Me
A Little Bit Of Ritalin Goes A Long Way
Ready To Rock If You Want To Roll
Please Step Away From The Vehicle
Ragnarok And Revolutionize
Gimme Just A Minute While I Clarify
Cooled Down My Temper, Tried To Remember
What It Was I Wasn't To Lose
And I Probably Could Were It Not For
The Beer And The Broads And The Broads And The Booze.
Hooked On Stupid, And The Whole Shebang
I Never Have Ever Felt The Same
No Thank You, That's Enough For Me
That's Prozacly Not What I Need
Ready To Rock If You Want To Roll
Please Step Away From The Vehicle
Ragnarok And Revolutionize
Gimme Just A Minute While I Clarify
Took A Lunatic For A Ride
And A Little Voice Said Inside My Head
Rosemary Baby, I Got The Thyme

The Regulator lyrics - Clutch
I See That Lantern Trimmed Low Burning In Our Home.
And Though I Feel Like Crying, I Swear Tonight, I'll Cry No More.
How Many Times Have I Prayed
That I Would Get Lost Along The Way?
Dream With The Feathers Of Angels Stuffed Beneath Your Head.
The Regulator's Swinging Pendulum.
Come With Me And Walk The Longest Mile.
Is His Wallet Leather? Is His Wallet Fat?
For Not A Year Later It's Got You Lying On Your Back.
You Should Have Closed Your Windows And Got Another Dog.
You Should Have Chained Up All The Doors And Switched Up All The Locks.
And How Many Times Have I Prayed
The Angels Would Speed Me Away.
Dream With The Feathers Of Angels Stuffed Beneath Your Head.
The Regulator's Swinging Pendulum.
Come With Me And Walk The Longest Mile.
And Though I Feel Like Crying, I Swear Tonight, I'll Cry No More.
How Many Times Have I Prayed
That I Would Get Lost Along The Way?
Dream With The Feathers Of Angels Stuffed Beneath Your Head.
The Regulator's Swinging Pendulum.
Come With Me And Walk The Longest Mile.
Is His Wallet Leather? Is His Wallet Fat?
For Not A Year Later It's Got You Lying On Your Back.

The Worm Drink Is Loose.
Wind Him Up, Bring Him Back
Conscript, Deserter.
The Proof Is In The Juice.
University Boulevard.
New Hampshire Avenue.
Tick Tock Liquor.
Thunderbird.
And Now That We Have Totally Lost All Composure,
We Will Wither From Exposure Beneath The Sun.
Wind Him Up, Bring Him Back
Conscript, Deserter.
The Worm Drink Is Loose.
Wind Him Up, Bring Him Back
Conscript, Deserter.
The Proof Is In The Juice.
If You See Me At The Bottom,
Please Bring Me My Running Shoes.
And If You See Me Getting Caught Up,
Yeah, You Know What To Do.
I'll March No Longer
I'm Done With War
Send Out Your Snivelers,
But I'll March No More.
Wind Him Up, Bring Him Back
Conscript, Deserter.
The Worm Drink Is Loose.
Wind Him Up, Bring Him Back
Conscript, Deserter.
The Proof Is In The Juice.
Army Of Bono lyrics - Clutch
Hold The Presses Mikey! Hot News On The Wire!
Hundreds See An Image Of A Guinness Drinking Choir.
Celebrities And Cameras Are Headed To The Scene
While Presidents Are Fleeing To Their Speeding Limousines.
Don't Worry, It's Just Stigmata.
Pass Me A Napkin And Don't You Dare Tell My Mother.
Your Local Programming Interrupted
By The Mindless Banter Of A Soulless Talking Head.
Roll Out The Red Carpet, Dripping Bloody Tongue.
Pay No Mind To Blue Berets And All Their Shiny Guns.
Don't Worry, It's Just Stigmata.
Pass Me A Napkin And Don't You Dare Tell My Mother.
Who You Gonna Call When The Man Brings His Hammer Down?
Goose Stepping With A Smoking Irish Fly.
And When Our World Is Over, Children By The Fire
Raise Their Hands And Pray That They May See A New Messiah.
And Somewhere In The Darkness A Flag Goes Running By.
The Smell Of Cigarettes And Love Are Incense For The Fly.
Don't Worry, It's Just Stigmata.
Pass Me A Napkin And Don't You Dare Tell My Mother.
Who You Gonna Call When The Man Brings His Hammer Down?
Goose Stepping With A Smoking Irish Fly.
Hundreds See An Image Of A Guinness Drinking Choir.

Spleen Merchant lyrics - Clutch
When I Die You Can Cut Me Up And Take All That You Please,
But Pity The Poor Dumb Fool Who Gets My Bleeding Spleen.
Corn Pone, I Born Tomorrow, My Bone Marrow Protein Filled
Scotch Whiskey Men Of Tain Have Come To Split Your Skills.
Hey, Hey
I Got Your Heaven, I Got Your Burning Hell, I Got It All Right Here.
Wrap Them Tight In Zip-Lock Bags To Benefit Good Medicines.
If Bad, You Can Toss Them Back And Stuff Them In Sausages.
Isn't It Something So Becoming, A Gentlemen Of Good Taste.
The Appetizer's Quite The Pleaser, But Might You Pass The Pepper Please This Way.
Hey, Hey
I Got Your Heaven, I Got Your Burning Hell, I Got It All Right Here.
Fertilizer Makes Your Corn Row Higher, But Makes Your Back Yard Stink.
And All The Crows Know Where The Wind Blows, Where Water Sinks.
Hey, Hey
I Got Your Heaven, I Got Your Burning Hell, I Got It All Right Here.
(In The Wake Of) The Swollen Goat lyrics - Clutch
No Horizon Is Obscured By The Clouds. Settlements Make Nary A Sound.
And There Were Black Birds Singing And Fish Floating On The Sea.
While The Bells Of The Buoys All Rang In Harmony.
Bury Your Treasure, Burn Your Crops,
Black Water Rising And It Ain't Gonna Stop.
The Governor He Been Long Gone, Anchor Dropped On His Front Lawn.
Build A Keep And Dig A Moat, The Return Of The Swollen Goat.
Can You Hear The Fife And Drums, Barnacles Barking At The Sun.
Ain't No Chance, So Don't You Try, Now Everybody Got To Die.
Bury Your Treasure, Burn Your Crops,
Black Water Rising And It Ain't Gonna Stop.
We Do Not Desire Tributes.
We Desire Information.
We Seek The Worm Drink Who Has Lately Betrayed His Nation
Albatross On Your Neck And A Hooker On The Shore,
Dog-Men To The Deck, There's A Hooker On The
In The Wake Of The Swollen Goat
Bury Your Treasure, Burn Your Crops,
Black Water Rising And It Ain't Gonna Stop.
And There Were Black Birds Singing And Fish Floating On The Sea.
While The Bells Of The Buoys All Rang In Harmony.
Bury Your Treasure, Burn Your Crops,
Black Water Rising And It Ain't Gonna Stop.
The Governor He Been Long Gone, Anchor Dropped On His Front Lawn.
Build A Keep And Dig A Moat, The Return Of The Swollen Goat.
Can You Hear The Fife And Drums, Barnacles Barking At The Sun.

Subtle Hustle lyrics - Clutch
Back Again With A Quickness, Pick It Up, Pick It Up.
Master Arithmeticness, Light It Up, Light It Up.
I Got The Heat In Both Feet, Snake Handler's Hands.
Come Back With Slickness And Do It All Again.
My Subtle Hustle, Smooth As Mother's Butter.
I Let It Ride On, I Let It Ride On.
Now I'm The Media's Darling, Pick It Up, Pick It Up.
An International Phenomenon, Light It Up, Light It Up.
I Cause Eclipses With A Wave Of The Hand.
Let Them Hang In Ellipses And Do It All Again.
My Subtle Hustle, Smooth As Mother's Butter.
I Let It Ride On, I Let It Ride On.
I Got Your Number. I Steal Your Thunder.
I Got Your Mother's Maiden Name Tattooed On My Arm.
I Drive Out Daemons. Can I Hear An Amen?
Now Say My Name.
Lay Hands On Screaming Heathens. And Do It All Again.
My Subtle Hustle, Smooth As Mother's Butter.
I Let It Ride On, I Let It Ride On.
Master Arithmeticness, Light It Up, Light It Up.
I Got The Heat In Both Feet, Snake Handler's Hands.
Come Back With Slickness And Do It All Again.

Eulogy For A Ghost lyrics - Clutch
The Leather Soles Go Shuffling In,
Stinking Of Smoke And Ten Cent Gin.
Now Who Will Toast Our Noble Host That Has This Morning Given Up The Ghost?
The Wooden Coffer Hand To Hand.
Kind Words Are Offered, Silent Prayers.
But She Is Satisfied The Most While Stabbing Madly At The Roast.
The Rib Of Adam, The Eyes Of Eve.
The Sons Of Cain Receive No Reprieve.
The Creditor Rides With His Men.
The Death Of Debtors He Won't Forgive.
They Repossess His Silver Eyes, Now In The Potter's Field He Lies.
The Rib Of Adam, The Eyes Of Eve.
The Sons Of Cain Receive No Reprieve.
Waiting For A Dead Man's Shoes.
Have You Heard The Latest News?
Lazarus Is Back From The Dead Looking As One Would Expect.
Dripping With The Waters Of Sheol.
Babbling About Body And Soul.
And Then He Found His Wife In Their Bed Buck Naked And Already Wed.
The Tax Collector Beneath His Sheets.
The Door Swings Open. Floorboards Creak.
Now Who Will Toast Our Noble Host Who Has This Morning Given Up The Ghost?
The Rib Of Adam, The Eyes Of Eve.
The Sons Of Cain Receive No Reprieve.
Stinking Of Smoke And Ten Cent Gin.
Now Who Will Toast Our Noble Host That Has This Morning Given Up The Ghost?

(Notes From The Trial Of) La Curandera lyrics - Clutch
Did You Not Grant Quarter To The Daemon, Giving Treatment To Its Wounds?
And Would You Not Consider It Unnatural To Be Born Outside The Womb?
We Eagerly Await Your Response And Your Best Defense.
La Curandera Is The Young Girl
In A Linen Dress Of White.
She Dances On Black Sand In The Night
In Her Linen Dress Of White.
Let Us Vote To Dunk The Witch In The River Styx And Photograph The Lye.
So In The Shadow Of Cerebus Her Spirit Will Reside.
La Curandera Is The Young Girl
In A Linen Dress Of White.
She Dances On Black Sand In The Night
In Her Linen Dress Of White.
Bird In The Fire, Mouthful Of Sand
King Of The Briar, Mouthful Of Sand
The Scale And Feather, The Lock And Key
The Lord Of Weather, The Beast At Peace
And Would You Not Consider It Unnatural To Be Born Outside The Womb?
We Eagerly Await Your Response And Your Best Defense.
La Curandera Is The Young Girl
In A Linen Dress Of White.
She Dances On Black Sand In The Night
In Her Linen Dress Of White.

Slow Hole To China lyrics - Clutch
Dig A Slow Hole To China
Blacker Than A Miner
No Turn Un-Stoned I Trample
Hold My Candle's Handle
Mama Always Said
"You Better Come Home"
Stuck In The Mud
Dug A Slow Hole
My Blue Cow
Gotta Get Her Back Here Somehow
My Brown Bag
Never Gonna Guess What I Have
Mama Always Said
"You Better Come Home"
Stuck In The Mud
Dug A Slow Hole
If It's Too Shallow Then Dig It More Deep
If It's Too Narrow Then Dig It More Wide
If You See A Point Of Light
Shake Hands With The Other Side
If It's Too Shallow Then Dig It More Deep
If It's Too Narrow Then Dig It More Wide
If You See The Point Of Light
Shake Hands With The Other Side
A Lighthouse In Kentucky
Oh I Should Be So Lucky
Sell Fill Dirt To The Groundlings
And Water To The Drowning
Mama Always Said
"You Better Come Home"
Stuck In The Mud
Dug A Slow Hole
Blacker Than A Miner
No Turn Un-Stoned I Trample
Hold My Candle's Handle
Mama Always Said
"You Better Come Home"
Stuck In The Mud
Dug A Slow Hole
My Blue Cow
Gotta Get Her Back Here Somehow
My Brown Bag
Never Gonna Guess What I Have
Mama Always Said
"You Better Come Home"
Stuck In The Mud
Dug A Slow Hole
If It's Too Shallow Then Dig It More Deep
If It's Too Narrow Then Dig It More Wide
If You See A Point Of Light
Shake Hands With The Other Side
If It's Too Shallow Then Dig It More Deep
If It's Too Narrow Then Dig It More Wide
If You See The Point Of Light
Shake Hands With The Other Side
A Lighthouse In Kentucky
Oh I Should Be So Lucky
Sell Fill Dirt To The Groundlings
And Water To The Drowning
Mama Always Said
"You Better Come Home"
Stuck In The Mud
Dug A Slow Hole
