The Crazy World of Arthur Brown - The Formless Depths lyrics
[The Crazy World of Arthur Brown - The Formless Depths lyrics]
Uh, runnin' on down to the hole in the city
A head full of smoke and a heart with no pity
Sliding down the slippery pole to
The edge of the night
Take me out and breathe me in
I hold a ten-ton hammer to your skin
Where right is wrong and you
Know wrong is right
I’m gonna hold you down till
You're ready to grip
You gotta hold onto me with
Your eyes and your lips
Gonna suck out your poison
Make you whole again
In the formless depths of Zim Zam Zim
Well everyone's runnin’ to the
Top of the hill
Ice caps melted, waters rising still
Storm winds howling, flames up in the sky
Towers are falling, smoke fills your lungs
Endless beginnings no longer begun
You've reached your "Sell-By" date
It's time to die
Some prayin' for the end to come fast
Pushin' and-a shovin'
They're tryin' to get past
To find a spot where Death has never been
In the formless depths of Zim Zam Zim
Take me in, breathe me out
Endure fear, your terror, your doubt
You can’t escape the final twisting joke
The tide of greed, tide of hate
Take up your loved ones before it’s too late
The air around you's thick with choking smoke
Waves of destruction filling the sky
People don’t care if they live or die
They just want the feel of
Breath runnin' through their lungs
While they're singing the song
That shouldn't be sung
It could be the end, it might all begin
In the formless depths of Zim Zam Zim
A head full of smoke and a heart with no pity
Sliding down the slippery pole to
The edge of the night
Take me out and breathe me in
I hold a ten-ton hammer to your skin
Where right is wrong and you
Know wrong is right
I’m gonna hold you down till
You're ready to grip
You gotta hold onto me with
Your eyes and your lips
Gonna suck out your poison
Make you whole again
In the formless depths of Zim Zam Zim
Well everyone's runnin’ to the
Top of the hill
Ice caps melted, waters rising still
Storm winds howling, flames up in the sky
Towers are falling, smoke fills your lungs
Endless beginnings no longer begun
You've reached your "Sell-By" date
It's time to die
Some prayin' for the end to come fast
Pushin' and-a shovin'
They're tryin' to get past
To find a spot where Death has never been
In the formless depths of Zim Zam Zim
Take me in, breathe me out
Endure fear, your terror, your doubt
You can’t escape the final twisting joke
The tide of greed, tide of hate
Take up your loved ones before it’s too late
The air around you's thick with choking smoke
Waves of destruction filling the sky
People don’t care if they live or die
They just want the feel of
Breath runnin' through their lungs
While they're singing the song
That shouldn't be sung
It could be the end, it might all begin
In the formless depths of Zim Zam Zim
