Stars - Black Francis

Outside the havoc wreaks

I think we’re finally gone

It’s time for me to speak

To the man from Babylon

Well, we almost got to Etham

But it was too far down the line

Now I’m stepping into darkness

On the other side of time

I smelled the wild broom

It filled me up with joy

Till I saw my star of doom

Now I got no choice

Well, we almost got to Rithma

But it was too far down the line

So I’m stepping into darkness

On the other side of time

It’s no good stuck in the ghetto

Laying around in bed

Lest I forget about those twinkles

Twinkling above my head

Well, we almost got to Nebo

But it was too far down the line

Now I’m slipping into darkness

On the other side of time

Well, we almost got to Nebo

But I seen me a real bad sign

And I can see you

In the brightness

On the other side of time
