Blow blue wind blow
Blow a hella gust
Blow through our brittle homes
Get our hair all mussed
Wake us up out of our sleep
Make us laugh until we weep
Take us out with one big sweep
Here he comes, here he comes
Big black rider, big black rider
Here he comes, here he comes
Big black rider has come to town
Scream thy best scream
Scream on into the night
Spit your guts into the wind
Blow up like gelignite
Turn the world on its head
Push the needle into the red
Go where devils fear to tread
He’s come to take our kids
He’s come to take our homes
He’s come to take our prized belongings
Tear us down like the fall of Rome
Burn baby burn
Burn it to the ground
Burn it down to molten ash
Be the id unbound
The end times are about to arrive
Ain’t no one need survive
Who cares who’s left alive
