Frank Black - The Cult of Ray Lyrics

What is there to say ? Still I can`t be silent Hear the cult of ray And you`ll be enlightened People, they`re no fun I saw raymond speak one time, he said hello And as he opened up my mind, so fried and battered I heard his words so very fine so high above this constant dripping chatter Young sharks feeding on the scrapple And upstarts feeding on your adam`s apple And you can`t hear yourself in all this babble And are you feeling role strain Melting rock into metal Melting rock into metal Melting rock into metal again ? In a dark place In the deep sky Is an old man Is an old man In a coffee can And he`s waiting In the old rain In the dep sky And he`s waiting Hear the cult of ray Fear the boy as tyrant People have a way When their mood is violent People, they`re no fun I have a century in mind, wait, oh no At least two centuries in mind, say, it doesn`t matter This rock is turning into sand while we are drowning here in our own shatter You can`t eat dirt cause it tastes so awful Like no sugar in your turkish coffee And can`t smile cause I got me a mouthful And i`ve been grinding this grain Melting rock into metal Melting rock into metal Melting rock into metal again In a dark place In the deep water Is an old man In a coffee can And he`s waiting In the old rain Frank Black Lyrics The Cult of Ray Lyrics
