Gargoyles

from Lullaby Land by Vampire Rodents

lyrics

Sharpened today your steel finger tip taps my shoulder
You'd better know the smell of his breath
You are the skin beneath his nails
You'd better sleep with your clothes on
They could be here anytime
You'd better learn how to swim

When it rains - god is crying
When the devil chips a nail - there's an earthquake
Now I see how man made it out to be action reaction
They'll make a believer out of you
You'd better sleep with your clothes on
You'd better learn how to swim

You gotta swim like you're going to burst into flames
You'd better learn how to swim in frozen waters
You should spend some time
You should see what it's like to live in a life embalmed in decadence
If you think it's too much to remember
Too much to know exactly where they're at
You'd better save some rope for your neck

The devil paints his nails
As god's angels adjust their wire wings
Will you be so sure that you could never believe again
You'd better fake it
You'd better make time to learn how to swim
Keep talking?
