Clutch - 12oz Epilogue

This was always the last place
I expected to be
Once upon an apocalypse
So better make the most of it
So I said to the horsemen
Have a Coke and a smile
So I said to the horsemen
Why not stick around for a while?

But they said You Got The Wrong One Baby
The New Generation is pushing up some daisies
And by decree of Rapture Inc.
We're closing this here market permanently

Coming down like a ton of lead
More bang for your buck
More pangs for the dead
Coca Cola and Armageddon
I like it, like it, yes I do

So they
Tried to teach the world to sing
In perfect harmony
But it was way off key
So here comes the big RC
The melting pot boils
The bible belt breaks
And young America begins to sing

Coca Cola and Armageddon
We like it, like it, yes we do
Coca Cola and Armageddon
It's The Real Thing now
Come and get it

Walking in the great shining path of monster trucks

Well, I crashed a Cadillac through the gates of hell
And returned with a fist full of dollars
And Evel Knievel, like Virgil
Was a gentleman as well as a scholar
'Cause I fly like a Retro-glide buckshot
And you know I hang like a hex on a barn
Grind the guardrail like a nail on a file
Above and beyond the hole nine yards
Well, I rolled Jesse Helms like a cigarette
And smoked him higher than the highest of the minarets
Jesse James couldn't even handle it
Started looking at me like I was Sanskrit
'Cause in the great shining path of the Great Monster Trucks
There's no such thing as beginner's luck
I'm the Dirty Dozen for the price of one
Get it while it's hot, going, going, going, gone
It's about time you started learning
Started learning to come to where the flavor is
Flavor is
It's about time you started learning
Started learning to come to where the flavor is
Flavor is
The skies are always sunny in the heart of Flavor Country
Where the washer's stuffed with money are growing like grass
Junk bondage racks never cut you slack
But that's the way the racket goes when rounding up green backs
Don't hate me just 'cause I'm beautiful
You'll find that it's really not unusual
When you're raised with The Good, The Bad, The Ugly
A holy trinity in Flavor Country
It's about time you started learning
Started learning to come to where the flavor is
Flavor is
I got spurs that jingle, jangle, jingle
I got spurs that jingle, jangle, jingle
And you are my happy trail
You are my happy trail
You are my happy trail
You are my happy trail
The skies are always sunny in the heart of Flavor Country
The skies are always sunny in the heart of Flavor Country
The skies are always sunny in the heart of Flavor Country

Big New #2

Can't funk with the feel or with the other three
This mother lode coming at you all three D's
We got big news, the party boat is here
The band is kicking, and I see lots of beers
And I believe there is gambling
On the deck just below from here
We got Gredo, Solo to the rear
They know the deal, sacks packed and stacked with
Pieces of eight, a sailor's life for me
Live free or die
Never look a bounty hunter in the eye, damn!
Now, where were we?
I think aces high, sleeves are rolled
Tremendous diamonds and a mouth of gold
I've spent many years a rambling
I'll never change these foolish ways
'Cause fortune tellers make a killing nowadays
Best keep living like a castaway
With my sack packed
Pieces of eight, a sailor's life for me
Live free or die
Never look a Bond man in the eye, damn!

Green Buckets

Won't you come over and stay for a while?
Take a seat, have a drink, we'd have a nice time.
Turn on the TV I believe it's prime time.
I'll make you chicken cacciatore in five.
There's a woman down at 314
Who can't keep the stains on her kitchen floor clean.
And there's a man who's been knockin' on his door
For three years, or has it been four?
I don't wanna spend the winter in this house all alone.
Those neighbors of mine keep coming on over and playing with my mind.
I would like to love you,
I sure would treat you right.
We could take the trash out
Every Thursday night.
Here in my neighborhood there is the strangest thing -
Green buckets every Friday at every driveway.
They're filled with glasses, plastics, and newspapers, too.
They say they recycle and bring them back to you.
I would like to love you,
I sure would treat you right.
We could take the trash out
Every Thursday night.
We could be a family,
Consume many goods.
We could be the pillars
Of the neighborhood.
Ah babe, I'm a real hard worker
With the proper tools, I'll make you anything you yearn for.
The barbarians are at the gate,
Come in before it's too late.
I have food enough to last the two of us about a year.
A thousand cans of chowder and a thousand cans of beer.
I love my neighbors like I love my own brothers,
But every year they're getting odder and odder.
I would like to love you,
I sure would treat you right.
We could take the trash out
Every Thursday night.
We could be a family,
Consume many goods.
We could be the pillars
Of the neighborhood.

Animal Farm

Listen up you stinking maggots
It seems you just don't get it
Well, I've been appointed to inform you
Your days are numbered
You would cry, you would scream
If you knew half the things I see
Please, please just do as I say
Repent and leave your evil ways
Meanwhile, planes drop from the sky
People disappear and bullets fly
Little grey men are coming our way
Tastes just like chicken, they say
Actually they're all around
Secret bunkers underground
Round 'em up, skin 'em alive
Rolling, rolling, rolling, rawhide
Carter is a clone
Dozen brothers 'round the globe
MJ-12 damned us to hell
Scroll & Key, Skull & Bone
It's only just begun
The best is yet to come
Area 51
The spawn of Babylon
Couldn't give a damn about JFK
Everything's conspiracy
Wouldn't be surprised if they have their way
Tastes just like chicken, they say
I know it's hard to swallow
It must sound too far fetched
But you can bet your bottom dollar
I ain't going with the rest

Rapture of Riddly Walker

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 shadder. 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 shadder. Eusa roam.
