lyrics

I woke before the clock had struck the hour of four
I was tired but my mind left sleep standing in her door
I’m standing here staring at blood drops on the snow
There’s something in the air everywhere I go

I’m going to raise up in the dawning before the calling of the crows
Leave this town’s wild money, down the street a steel wind blows
I’m still not convicted for the kind of seeds I sow
There’s something in the air everywhere I go

I have a psychic milk cow, I’ve got a clairvoyant mule
I heard the crown prince praying in the monastery vestibule
I’m in this cemetery of dreams, walking down it row by row
There’s something in the air everywhere I go

They’re playing dominos on the field amid the bodies and the blood
They say Noah’s down the road building a boat to ride the flood
It takes imagination to know which dice to throw
There’s something in the air everywhere I go (repeat)

This is afro swamp gospel, this is blues n’ roll. Guitarist and singer Guy Collins with drummer extraordinaire James van Minnen are afro swamp gospel prophets in the temple of cosmic delta juju. ... more
