Blue Oyster Cult - Astronomy Lyrics
Clock strikes twelve and moondrops burstOut at you from their hiding placeLike acid and oil on a madmans faceHis reason tends to fly awayLike lesser birds on the four windsLike silver scrapes in mayAnd now the sands become a crustMost of you have gone awayCome susie dear, lets take a walkJust out there upon the beachI know youll soon be marriedAnd youll want to know where winds come fromWell its never said at allOn the map that carrie readsBehind the clock back there you knowAt the four winds barHey! hey! hey! hey!Four winds at the four winds barTwo doors locked and windows barredOne door to let to take you inThe other one just mirrors itHey! hey! hey! hey!Hellish glare and inferenceThe other ones a duplicateThe queenly flux, eternal lightOr the light that never warmsYes the light that never, never warmsOr the light that neverNever warmsNever warmsNever warmsThe clock strikes twelve and moondrops burstOut at you from their hiding placeMiss carrie nurse and susie dearWould find themselves at four winds barIts the nexus of the crisisAnd the origin of stormsJust the place to hopelesslyEncounter time and then came meHey! hey! hey! hey!Call me desdinovaEternal lightThese gravely digs of mineWill surely prove a sightAnd dont forget my dogFixed and consequentAstronomy...a star
