THE PERILOUS NIGHT LYRICS
We needed warming from the cold hard facts
Unheeded warnings bout the broken tracks
All hope is fading and its's not coming back again
Uniting forces may be calling fast
Changing courses to somg stalin past
Melting faces through the lookeng glass, my friend
Something's got ahold of our feel alright
Out of control in the appetite
We're moving into the perilous night, amen
Dumb, white and angry with their cup half filled
Running over people down in charlotte sville
White house fury, it's the killing side, he defends
Defend the up-ender, yes he played that tune
Is ain't the ending but it's coming soon
We're making love beneath a sputnik moon again
White house is glowing from the red square light
The gates at the border being alammed down tight
We're moving into the perelous night, my friend
Something's got ahold of our feel alright
Out of control in the appetite
We're moving into the perilous night, amen
And why's that drone looking through my window?
World keeps turning in the torch light shadow
Fourth reich in khakis is beckoning
Both ends burning to the reckoning
Ronnie reagan must be spinning his grave
Putin's on rise ukraine's under siege
Fascism's knocking and trump says " let them in "
I'd like to tell you there'all be better days
But optimism's running low today
We're off the deep end with a lifefuard that can't swim
The klan and the naziz re tking up the fight
Against their own salvation in the saviors light
We're moving into the perilous night, amen
Flags of oppression are blocking out the light
Dismantling the featest generation's fight
We're moving into the perilous night, amen
Amen
Amen
