Red right hand

[00:00.63] Take a little walk to the edge of town and go across the tracks

[00:14.19] Where the viaduct looms like a bird of doom as it shifts and cracks

[00:24.80] Where secrets lie in the border fires in the humming wires

[00:31.19] Well, you know You're never coming back

[00:34.63] Past the square, past the bridge, past the mills, past the stacks

[00:38.88] On a gathering storm comes a tall handsome man

[00:45.53] In a dusty black coat with a red right hand

[00:58.01] He'll wrap you in his arms and tell you that you've been a good boy

[01:04.91] He'll rekindle all the dreams it took you a lifetime to destroy

[01:14.21] He'll reach deep into the hole, heal your shrinking soul

[01:19.52] And there won't be a single thing that you can do

[01:24.31] He's a god, he's a man, he's a ghost, he's a guru

[01:27.76] They're whispering his name 'cross this disappearing land

[01:34.92] But hidden in his coat is a red right hand

[01:47.15] You don't have no money? He'll get you some

[01:54.58] If you haven't got no car, he'll get you one

[02:03.35] You've got no self-respect, you feel like an insect

[02:09.20] Well, don't you worry, buddy, 'cause here he comes

[02:13.97] Through the ghettos and the barrows and the Bowery and the slum

[02:18.76] A shadow is cast wherever he stands

[02:24.87] Stacks of green paper in his red right hand

[02:38.15] You'll see him in your nightmares, you'll see him in your dreams

[03:49.87] He'll appear out of nowhere, but he's not what he seems

[04:01.02] You'll see him in your head on the TV screen

[04:05.54] Hey, buddy, I'm warning you to turn it off

[04:09.79] He's a ghost, he's a god, he's a man, he's a guru

[04:16.95] You're one microscopic cog in his catastrophic plan

[04:20.95] Designed and directed by his red right hand
