Running With The Mothmen - Shriekback

I ain’t quite right

Gonna bury me at night

I was never very bright but this I know

It’s a mighty plan

Way to stick it to the man

In this tragic little span

You can’t say no

See the whole dam' street

Start to give in to the meat

Watch 'em underneath the sheets

They’re all aglow

We’re action packed try and catch us in the act

Some distortion to the facts

(The strain don’t show)

Running with themothmen mothmen mothmen

Running with the mothmen (half-incinerated)

Running with themothmen mothmen mothmen

Running with the mothmen (over stimulated)

Come feel the fear with the liquid engineer

If he’s all that he appears

Why not say so?

Quite precise

That unnatural device

Was a so much nicer way to go

'Do what the voices say

Down where the light don’t shine

Mad as a bag of cats

Down where the dogs won’t stray'

The truth we can reveal

Has a very wide appeal

Like a human conger eel

That don’t let go

Tried to colonise the place

With marzipan and mace

We will get right into your face

But it’s all show

The Gaderine swine are favourites of mine

You gotta recognize the signs

And just say no

I don’t know how

It’s contaminated now

It’s an aspect of the Tao

For all I know

You gotta shed that dread

As the Revelator said

You’re a long time dead

And he should know

'Do what the voices say

Down where the light don’t shine

Mad as a bag of cats

Down where the dogs won’t stray'
