A Night of Burning
Verse:
Use asbestos gloves to play this deal
Yeah, this thing is white-hot; the danger is real
Most people think of classical music as benign
But not this music, this is the burning kind
Pre-Chorus:
Bring your welding goggles to view this show
Bring you ear plugs too, now you’ve been told
Verse:
It’s a raging inferno, it’s a sheet of flame
If you’re listening to this to relax, you’ll never be the same
For it’s aggression in a tuxedo and tails
On your body it is pounding, on your head it wails
Repeat Pre-Chorus:
Chorus:
See it shoot a wall of fire, over your head
It needs no words to say what should be said
So get ready for A Night of Burning
Demons in their grave, over are turning
Verse:
It’s very heavy music disguised as light
It’ll suck the blood out of your body; you’ll turn white
You’ll hear the flute substituted for electric guitar,
but it still will hammer you, no matter how near, or how far
Repeat Pre-Chorus:
Repeat Chorus:
END
Soothing hammer
Verse:
Down goes the conductor’s hands
And you’re off to Heavy Music Land
Oh sure, it’s not heavy in traditional ways,
but it’s more subliminal; that’s the way it plays
Pre-Chorus:
While you hear relaxing, it slams into your brain
While you feel quiet calm, it’s working to drive you insane
Verse:
Hear the violins; oh, so relaxing
Lulls you to sleep as your pain is maxing
Hear the cello as your world flies apart
Feel the mellow even as a dagger pierces your heart
Repeat Pre-Chorus:
Chorus:
Fall asleep as The Soothing Hammer it rings
Hear all the joy and misery it brings
Yes, it’s a symphonic warning telling you to flee
If you know what’s good for you, you’ll listen to me
Verse:
It tricks you into thinking there’s peace on Earth,
even as the human waste that is your world’s getting worse
It may be naive to listen to our s***,
but at least you are happy, when the dirt you’ve bit
Repeat Pre-Chorus:
Repeat Chorus:
END
Blood Under the Sycamore Tree
Verse:
You’re having a quiet picnic under a cloudless sky
Little do you know that you’re about to die
As the relaxing tones of classical music fills the air,
You’re living through a heavy metal nightmare
Pre-Chorus:
See the Beast as he smashes your head
As the classical song reaches the end, you’re dead
Verse:
It’s should be so tranquil, but instead you scream
It’s music torches your face with it’s boiling-hot steam
See the peaceful glen, hear the birds sing
Then, see the blood spout, hear the screams ring
Repeat Pre-Chorus:
Chorus:
Yes, see the Blood Under the Sycamore Trees
It’s dripping from the dead branches, you watch in total disbelief
You expected only a quiet meal,
not this totally nightmarish deal
Verse:
As you’re soaking up the last of the sun’s rays
The tree your sitting under comes to life and says:
“I’m a talking tree, and your a** is mine
I’ll make this picnic the killing kind!”
Repeat Pre-Chorus:
Repeat Chorus:
END
