Creature Comforts - North by North

23 years under a bad sign,

It’s getting harder and harder to believe my own eyes,

But I feel it rumbling from the streets to peaks,

You tell me what you know, I’ll show you what I’ve seen,

It’s a haunting yet noble melody we play, but it goes on and on year after year

this way.

So we ran off, had herself a little black Grand Am now,

Took it to the edge of town and,

The way she flicked her cigarette

Said oh yeah…

It’s been so long since I joined them

The olden house, though immortal, long forgotten

It envelopes me with a sense of sick appeal,

The fact I’ll die off with the power that nobody can steal

But my bloodline still lives upon that forlorn peak

My uncle Einar is probably flying back from the east

Mama still knows every little thought I’m thinking,

Chelsea in the fields of Dogwood

Hunting with her laser eyes.

Said oh you got your kin, it’s no place of mine

Take you from the family you thought you knew

I will let you see, all us human beasts,

For yourself the creature comfort’s nothing new.

Oh you got your kin, it’s a state of mind

Take you from the family you thought you knew

I will let you see, all us human beasts,

For yourself the creature comfort’s nothing new.

Oh I got my kin, it’s a state of mind

Take me from the family I thought I knew

I will spend my days with the mortal blood

running through my veins the veil has been removed
