lyrics
Misfit yonder
I hear the rolling thunder
and I feel ten feet under
thought I could raise the dead,
but now I'm on my knees again
oh what a misfit yonder
And when the lights are falling
I hear the bells are calling
thought I could be the one,
but now the others having fun
oh when your heart is howling
Saw a pale and tall man,
he was dressed in black and was coming my way
I said "I'm sorry sir
ain't got no money to buy anything today
he said "I'm no salesman boy,
you must follow me down to where I came,
and that is not an option,
oh by the way I hope you guessed my name"
I hear the rolling thunder
and I feel ten feet under
thought I could be the one,
but now the others having fun
oh what a misfit yonder
And when the lights are falling
I hear the bells are calling
thought I could raise the dead,
but now I'm on my knees again
oh when your heart is howling
We passed the darkest pit,
we passed the marble gate
down to the center of the earth,
where none alive has ever been
"hey sir, is it far where we're going,
is another mile or maybe two"
"Don't worry almost there son,
down here we got a hell of a barbeque"
I hear the rolling thunder
and I feel ten feet under
thought I could raise the dead,
but now I'm on my knees again
oh what a misfit yonder
And when the lights are falling
I hear the bells are calling
thought I could be the one,
but now the others having fun
oh when your heart is howling
Saw a pale and tall man,
he was dressed in black and was coming my way
I said "I'm sorry sir
ain't got no money to buy anything today
he said "I'm no salesman boy,
you must follow me down to where I came,
and that is not an option,
oh by the way I hope you guessed my name"
I hear the rolling thunder
and I feel ten feet under
thought I could be the one,
but now the others having fun
oh what a misfit yonder
And when the lights are falling
I hear the bells are calling
thought I could raise the dead,
but now I'm on my knees again
oh when your heart is howling
We passed the darkest pit,
we passed the marble gate
down to the center of the earth,
where none alive has ever been
"hey sir, is it far where we're going,
is another mile or maybe two"
"Don't worry almost there son,
down here we got a hell of a barbeque"
