Red Right Hand
In the style of
Lyrics
take a little walk
to the edge of town
go across the tracks
where the viaduct looms
like a bird of doom
as it shifts
and cracks
where secrets lie
in the border fires
in the humming wires
hey man you know
you're never coming back
past the square past the bridge
past the mills past the stacks
on a gathering storm
comes a tall handsome man
in a dusty black coat
with a red right hand
he'll wrap you
in his arms
tell you that you've been
a good boy
he'll rekindle
all the dreams
it took you a lifetime
to destroy
he'll reach deep
into the hole
heal your shrinking soul
but there won't be a single
thing that you can do
he's a god he's a man
he's a ghost he's a guru
they're whispering his name
through this disappearing land
but hidden in his coat
is a red right hand
you don't have no money?
he'll get you some
you don't have no car?
he'll get you one
you don't have no self-respect
you feel like an insect
well don't you worry buddy
'cos here he comes
through the ghettos
and the barrio
and the bowery
and the slum
a shadow is cast
wherever he stands
stacks of green paper
in his red right hand
you'll see him
in your nightmares
you'll see him in your dreams
he'll appear out of nowhere
but he ain't what he seems
you'll see him in your head
on the tv screen
hey buddy i'm warning
you to turn it off
he's a ghost he's a god
he's a man he's a guru
you're one microscopic cog
in his catastrophic plan
designed and directed
by his red right hand
