Scream movie - Red Right Hand lyrics
rate meSong by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds<br /><br>
Take a litle walk to the edge of town<br>
Go across the tracks<br>
Where the viaduct looms,<br>
like a bird of doom<br>
As it shifts and cracks<br>
Where secrets lie in the border fires,<br>
in the humming wires<br>
Hey man, you know<br>
you're never coming back<br>
Past the square, past the bridge,<br>
past the mills, past the stacks<br>
On a gathering storm comes<br>
a tall handsome man<br>
In a dusty black coat with<br>
a red right hand<br>
<br>
He'll wrap you in his arms,<br>
tell you that you've been a good boy<br>
He'll rekindle all the dreams<br>
it took you a lifetime to destroy<br>
He'll reach deep into the hole,<br>
heal your shrinking soul<br>
Hey buddy, you know you're<br>
never ever coming back<br>
He's a god, he's a man,<br>
he's a ghost, he's a guru<br>
They're whispering his name<br>
through this disappearing land<br>
But hidden in his coat<br>
is a red right hand<br>
<br>
You ain't got no money?<br>
He'll get you some<br>
You ain't got no car? He'll get you one<br>
You ain't got no self-respect,<br>
you feel like an insect<br>
Well don't you worry buddy,<br>
cause here he comes<br>
Through the ghettos and the barrio<br>
and the bowery and the slum<br>
A shadow is cast wherever he stands<br>
Stacks of green paper in his<br>
red right hand<br>
<br>
[Organ solo]<br>
<br>
You'll see him in your nightmares,<br>
you'll see him in your dreams<br>
He'll appear out of nowhere but<br>
he ain't what he seems<br>
You'll see him in your head,<br>
on the TV screen<br>
And hey buddy, I'm warning<br>
you to turn it off<br>
He's a ghost, he's a god,<br>
he's a man, he's a guru<br>
You're one microscopic cog<br>
in his catastrophic plan<br>
Designed and directed by<br>
his red right hand<br>
<br>
[Organ solo]<br>
<br>
[Extra verse from DJ Spooky Remix (From Scream 2 Soundtrack):]<br>
He'll extend his hand, real slowly for a shake<br>
You'll see it coming toward you, real slowly for a shake<br>
(Grabbing at your peril buddy?) cause you know you ain't<br>
getting near much as he will take.<br>
<br>
He's a... <br>
<br>
He's mumbling words you can't understand<br>
He's mumbling word behind his red right hand.<br>
<br>
