Orange Goblin - The Big Black lyrics



Tracks



01. Scorpionica

My god rises at daybreak
My goddess goes down on me at dawn
Hallucinate what is on the horizon
Scorpionica, she is born

My brain sings revolution
She sends life to the heart of the sun
Hallucinate what the sunrise is hiding
Scorpionica has begun

And as the sun burns on
And takes my soul away
The solar titan rises
And lives to shine another day

I got burnt for my madness
She got high on the heart of my soul
Sonic titans are riding the sunrise
Scorpionica, she is born

02. Quincy The Pigboy

Yeah, that little fucker, he's racin' for the sun
He's got a bottle of Jack and he's getting drunk
He's smokin' lines in a joint just to ease his pain
He's takin' pills just to get back down again
Get back down again

Yeah, he's gettin' kicks on the highway 666
He killed his mother 'cos she would not suck his dick
With all the drugs he's a time bomb set to blow
He's shootin' up just to let that feeling go
Let that feeling go

03. Hot Magic Red Planet

Light the fire, take me higher
Sell my soul for what it's worth
Set the course right, into the night
Far behind us, planet Earth

Strange affliction, drug addiction
Too many people, too many cars
Mind destruction, soul abduction
Build a new home in the stars

Celestial chaos and madness
Causing temples to fall into space
Planets collide in a daydream
Giving birth to an alien race

Send the kids to the stars for our future
It's the way that religion has planned
Television and science control us
And the drugs help us all understand

Light the fire, take me higher
Sell my soul for what it's worth
Set the course right, into the night
Far behind us, planet Earth

04. Cozmo Bozo

If mine is yours, baby, and yours is mine
Then why is yours always so hard to find
A king of men and a queen of whores
You've built your empire on all fours

You give me sorrow in return for love
Bring me down from what I'm dreaming of
The lights are on but there's nobody home
Selling my soul just to be alone

Singin' a song that should bring it all back to you
Doing the things that you said you'd never do
Riding the nights, left the good times far behind
Looking to you for the things I'll never find

I don't need comfort or your sympathy
I don't want pity or an easy lay
I want the sun, the moon, the stars and all
I need your loving and some alcohol

05. 298kg

I've seen your illusions, just like you've seen my desires
There has got to be much more burnin' in tomorrow's fires
I just sip the potion, hope it takes my blues away
So I just keep on rollin', 'til I find a brighter day

I see your sun is shinin', heavens smilin'
There's never been a way for me to say
I've got to find the feelin', start believin'
There's got to be a way for me to say that I know

If a blind man sees tomorrow, like a deaf man hears the sun
Then we must choose if we were born to lose, or if we're the chosen one
I can't find the feeling, that'll take my blues away
So I just keep on rollin', 'til I find a brighter day

I see your sun is shinin', heavens smilin'
There's never been a way for me to say
I've got to find the feelin', start believin'
There's got to be a way for me to say that I know

A blind man sees tomorrow, like a deaf man hears the sun
We must choose if we were born to lose, or if we're the chosen one

06. Turbo Effalunt (Elephant)

A million miles an hour, with an overloaded mind
Ridin' on an asteroid into a different space in time
Satellites of madness are building mushrooms in the sky
Through a magic universe, into the neon light

It's a lonely ride

Fly on through a mountain like a rocket to my brain
Watch the turbo elephants go around the sun again
Catch the shooting shar that's heading straight towards the door
Take it while I've got it 'cos you won't see me no more

It's a lonely ride

Woman, didn't I say I didn't want you in my head
Oh woman, said I only wanted you to stay in my bed
'Cos maybe, if we stick together we'll find our own way home
'Cos oh baby, that's the best damn journey that I've ever grown

It's a lonely ride

07. King Of The Hornets

Living in the soul of your mind's frustration
Looking to the sun for a destination
Majesty in awe of the serpent's wonder
Chaos in the shape of a girl named Thunder

Apocalypse now, better hold tight, baby
Wizard of the ancient keys won't save me
Empires fall with the cosmos burning
Destruction of the void, now the world stops turning

Riding through the stars to the twilight oceans
Astral tides that flow with demonic notions
Entities of horror bringing Armageddon
Rockets flying to the blackest sun I'm setting

Swarm of electric death is growing
Seeds of eternal doom they're sowing
Plans for galactic domination
Living in the soul of your mind's frustration

Acid rain is burning
Through the temples of my dreams
As the world stops turning
Can you tell me what that means

God's on my side, baby
But the Devil calls my tunes
And I've been feeling lately
This whole universe is doomed

08. You'll Never Get To The Moon In That

Instrumental.

09. Alco Fuel

I'll fly this sucker, baby
I've got seven stars that guide my fortune
I'll take us far away
To the planet I built for you on a mountain

No need to breathe again
I've got a nuclear heart and it's overloading
I'll never drink again
Just like I told you blue snow would fall, I'm joking

I've got one last chance to try and ease my pain
But I'm sinking to the bottom of the bottle again
'Cos I'm all dried up and it's hard to choose
If I'm burning out on fairytales or booze

10. The Big Black

Bypassing history, travelling time
Omnipotent presence, the power sublime
True path of wisdom, stoner doom grows
Where Big Black came from, the Lightbringer knows

Traversing the cosmos with stars as its eyes
Crushing the galaxy, nebulas die
A nova erupts its soul into space
The Big Black's the soul of the old stoner race

The end of all things is approaching us soon
Destruction brought on by the legions of doom
Damnation eternal for men of poor thought
The Big Black's the force that the wizards once sought
