I used to lie in my bed
Sleep wouldn't come Thinkin' 'bout things that they said They led me on All of the fancy ladies Oh they could talk and talk I shot for the highest star But I aimed too high You wanted a rich rock star But he made you cry Now that we have each other We can laugh about it CHORUS: You're not the one I was lookin' for but You're the one for me (you're the one) I'm not the one you were lookin' for but You can't go wrong with me You're not the one I was lookin' for but You're oh so good for me Now I can't make it without I can't go on We can make beautiful music And prove them wrong We've been put down by the best And now we laugh about it, ya (CHORUS) You're oh so good for me (You're so good) (3X'S) |

Pursued by an army of birds in the rain None of them can see the clouds, the polished wings don't care Animal ways through the hazy dreams full of pain Wings wetted down, stumbling on the ground It all turns around, in the end The voices sound deadly, sometimes I hear Echoes of empires, spread throughout the sky Wings wetted down, stumbling on the ground It all turns around, in the end Flights of black horseman soar over churches Pursued by an army of birds in the rain Wings wetted down, stumbling on the ground It all turns around, in the end |

You see me now, a veteran of a thousand psychic wars
I've been living on the edge so long Where the winds of limbo roar And I'm young enough to look at And far too old to see All the scars are on the inside I'm not sure if there's anything left of me Don't let these shakes go on It's time we had a break from it It's time we had some leave We've been living in the flames We've been eating up our brains Oh, please, don't let these shakes go on You ask me why I'm weary Why I can't speak to you You blame me for my silence Say it's time I changed and grew But the war's still going on, dear And there's no end that I know And I can't say I'm forever I can't say if we're ever gonna be free Don't let these shakes go on It's time we had a break from it It's time we had some leave We've been living in the flames We've been eating up our brains Oh, please, don't let these shakes go on You see me now a veteran Of a thousand psychic wars My energy's spent at last And my armor is destroyed I have used up all my weapons And I'm helpless and bereaved Wounds are all I'm made of Did I hear you say that this is victory? Don't let these shakes go on It's time we had a break from it Send me to the rear Where the tides of madness swell And been sliding into Hell Oh, please, don't let these shakes go on Don't let these shakes go on Don't let these shakes go on |

록 그룹중에는 음반보다는 실황 공연에서 진가를 발휘하는 그룹들이 많이 있는데 BOC
(Blue Oyster Cult)가 그 대표적인 그룹중 하나이다. 레이저 광선을 실황 공연 무대에서 처음 사용한 그룹으로 알려진 이들은 뉴욕 언더그라운드에서 활약한 브루스 스프링스틴, 패티 스미스 등과 함께 대중적인 성공을 거둔 실력파이기도 하다. 1970년 Soft White Underbelly 와 Stalk-Forrest Group 이 합쳐져 결성된 BOC는 1972년 데뷔 음반 'Blue Oyster Cult'를 발표하고 이듬해인 1973년에 커버를 보고 있으면 심한 현기증을 느끼게 하는 'Tyranny And Mutation'을 발표했다. 이 음반에는 이들 공연의 단골 연주곡인 Hot Rails to Hell 을 비롯하여 7 Screaming Diz-Busters 등이 실려있는데 묵직한 헤비메틀 사운드와 Donald Roeser, Eric Bloom, Allen Lanier, 3인의 기타연주는 팬들의 관심을 끌기에 충분했다. 1974년 'Secret Treaties'에 이어 1975년에는 2장짜리 공연 음반 'On Your Feet or on Your Knees' 을 발표하면서 Steppenwolf 의 Born to Be Wild 와 연주곡인 Buck's Boogie를 실었다. 1976년에는 그들의 최대 히트곡 (Don't Fear) The Reaper가 실린 'Agents of Fortune'이 나왔고 1977년에는 최고 걸작 Spectres가 발표되었다. 이 음반은 전작들에 비해 다소 사운드가 약해졌다는 평가를 받았으나 발라드인 I Love the Night를 비롯하여 주술적인 Nosferatu 와 영화로 만들어져 유명해진 고질라를 노래한 Godzilla등이 담겨있다. 공연에 자신감이 있는 BOC는 1978년 2번째 공연음반 'Some Enchanted Evening'을 발매했고 1979년에는 다소 평범한 'Mirrors'를 1980년에는 'Cultosaurus Erectus'를 발표하였다. 1981년 BOC는 The Doors의 기타리스트 로비 크리거를 초빙하여 그룹으로서는 3번째 실황 공연 음반이었으며 더블앨범인 'Extraterrestrial Live'를 발표 하였는데, 이 음반은 이들 BOC의 국내 최초 라이센스 발매반이기도 하다. 이 라이센스 음반은 더블 음반에서 곡을 간추려 싱글 음반으로 발매가 되었는데, 그로인해 아름다운 커버까지 싱글로 발매되는 아쉬움을 남겼다. 1970년대 초중반 헤비메틀 사운드와 악마적인 공연 분위기 연출로 인기를 끌었던 BOC는 80년대 들어 'Fire of Unknown Origin'(1981), 'The Revolution by Night'(1983)등을 냈지만 세월의 흐름을 어쩌지 못하고 점차 잊혀져 가는 그룹이 되었다. 블랙사바스와 어깨를 나란히 하던..."악마의 음악"이라는 평을 들었던 그룹... 레이저 광선을 이용한 공연은 "Blue Oyster Cult" 의 트레이드마크였다... 몽환적인 분위기와 사악하고 그로데스크한 이미지가 결합된 Live는 당시('70)로는 획기적인 사건이었다... 때문에 종교단체와 보수 층으로부터 거센 반발을 불러 일으키기도 한 락계의 악동들이다... 이 앨범은 이들의 싱글로는 최대의 성공을 거둔 "(Don't Fear) The Reaper"(12위)가 수록된 '76년 4집 앨범이다... 미국 뉴욕 출신의 그룹인 이들은 헤비메탈의 원류(原流)를 논할 때 빼놓을 수 없는 중요한 그룹이며...이들의 사운드적 특성은 '60년대 후반을 휩쓴 사이키델릭과 블루스 리바이벌에 의한 하드락 대신 로큰.롤의 부기 사운드와 리프 중심의 심플하고 강력한 사운드로 정평이 나있는 그룹이기도 하다... |

See them standing in the foothills
Waiting for the kill On wings of fear the terror sweeps Into the city beat CHORUS To defend This is the pact But when life's scorned And damage done To avenge This is the pact On wings of vengeance Taarna finds them Death for barbarians CHORUS Flying over the oasis She is captured And they pull her down Feeling pain (ah) From the air (ah) Close my eyes (ah) And I am there (ah) I feel I'm falling down in a deep dark pit "Pull him down," the soldier said "I'll put an arrow in his head" But the bird flew off instead To save his master, on his back she fled Her time has come Riding her bird high in the saddle She gets her chance to fulfill the pact now As their leader swoops from the clouds She sticks him with her sword then she throws him down The enemy shrivel and die The enemy shrivel and die CHORUS |

There was no light shining through the window
As margaret lie in bed She was wearing cotton pajamas A crucifix above her head She awoke from a dream Her eyes were open Her lips were moving In the dark Speak to me in many voices Make them all sound like one Let me see your sacred mysteries Reveal to me the unknown tongue Reveal to me the unknown tongue She put her hands upon her breasts And they were small and hard and young And everywhere she touched she felt a fire Waiting for the answer that must surely come Is this the way to love? Or is this just the way to die? Speak to me in many voices Make them all sound like one Let me see your sacred mysteries Reveal to me the unknown tongue Reveal to me the unknown tongue Then she took her father's razor And watched it cut into her palm She put her hand up to her mouth To taste the blood so holy and warm She got up in the morning Put on her dress, and patent leather shoes Ate her cereal and kissed her mother Caught the bus and went to school Speak to me in many voices Make them all sound like one Let me see your sacred mysteries Reveal to me the unknown tongue Reveal to me the unknown tongue |

Parched land no desert sand, sun was just a dot
And a little bit of water goes a long way, 'cause it's hot Three good buddies were laughing and smoking in the back Of a rented ford They couldn't know they weren't going far Each one with the money in his pocket Could go out and buy himself a brand new car But they all had the money they had Money they hoped would take them very far The sky was bright, a traffic light, now and then a truck And they hadn't seen a cop around all day They brought everything they needed bags and scales to weigh the stuff The driver said the border's just over the bluff It wasn't until the car suddenly stopped In the middle of a cold and barren place And the other guy turned and spilled Three boys blood, did they know a trap had been lain? They're ok the last days of may, I'll be breathing dry air I'm leaving soon, the others are already there You wouldn't be interested in coming along, instead of staying here They say the west is nice this time of year |

In a purple vision
Many thousand years ago I saw the silent stranger Walk the earth alone Twenty-seven faces With their eyes turned to the sky I've got a camera And an airtight alibi I know they're out there We see them coming Faster than the speed of light They greet us in the dead of the night Somewhere, someday, someone They'll be light and sound They'll alight on the ground On which we stand Somewhere, someday, someone Will help us to survive They're gonna show us hell And bring us back alive Well, I'm no poet, but I can't be fooled The lies don't count, the whispers do I hear the whispers on the wind They say the earth has fallen due We run in circles Our days are numbered Every night I look away To the heavens and I pray Come to us Come to us Our lights are dim Our roads are crumbling And we don't know what to do We're sick and tired And dying to meet you 'cause we bit off more than We can chew |

Warm weather and a holocaust Left to die by two good friends Abandoned me and put to sleep Left to die by two good friends Tears of god flow as I bleed So ladies fish and gentlemen Here's my angled dream See me in my blue sky bag And meet me by the sea Oyster boys are swimming for me now Save me from the death like creature Oyster boys are swimming now Hear them chatter on the tide We understand, we understand But fear is read and so do I So ladies fish and gentlemen Here's my angled dream See me in my blue sky bag And meet me by the sea Oyster boys are swimming for me Just one deal is what we made now Forest keys and whirlwind cold Green keys too and keys of gold And even locks that don't explode When the skies become a scroll So ladies fish and gentlemen Here's my angled dream See me in my blue sky bag And meet me by the sea |

They have killed the great sun jester
Who danced between the stars They have stripped him of his manhood Signs of venus and of mars The cynics left him weeping And the jackals left him torn And the jester reaches out bind hands He can touch the stars no more. Chorus: And he took the stars in his hands And as he scattered them he'd shout "i'm the joker of the universe I'm what it's all about." Now he's dying in his grief And the hard men dragged him down They have killed the wild-eyed jester They have killed the fireclown Now his blind eyes seek the starlight And his fingers seek controls To take him into space again Where he was both young and old The dancers stiff with pain And they've made him kneel too long And the madness they have driven out They've left him cold and sane. Chorus He'll never - sing his songs - again.... He'll never dance between the stars - again.... He'll never laught - again.... No he'll never ever laugh again.... Oh, no.... |

Strange shapes light up the night.
Never see ?em though I hope I might. Don?t ask if they are real. The men in black, their lips are sealed. Fantasy fills my mind To leave this place before my time, Release myself from earthly care. My dream may be your nightmare. I turn my hopes up to the sky I?d like to know before I die Memories will slowly fade I lift my eyes and say, ?Come on, take me away! Come on, take me away!?br /> Come here girl close to me A thousand stars your eye can see First one we see tonight, I wish I may, I wish I might. Chorus Guitar solo Chorus |

There walked a lonely man
Silent, mute, the only man Not knowing how not knowing why Was he the sole survivor Why should he be alive Breathing still while others died? And the only question Why was he the sole survivor? Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Wind blew across the sand He stood alone, he had no plan And with the last rays of the sun He screamed aloud began to run In his tears he sees his face "I am the end of the human race When I'm gone there'll be no trace For I'm the sole survivor" Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night One night when years had passed The sky shook from a fiery blast And there a starship, saved at last To come rescue this survivor They beckoned him inside But only man, he would not ride Instead he found a place to hide For he's the sole survivor Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night |

They held their heads with laughs of pain
They learned from men who'd just refrain From glancing at a mirror's face Seven screaming diz-busters who lurked by a rose Had iron for a bloodstream and ice behind their eyes On each and all those holy nights Where dusters dust becomes the sale and lucifer, the light They're long so long this time of year When stars be crossed by twirling fear You don't suppose I'd prove surprised Seven screaming diz-busters should go the route and die Without the warmth they learn to crave With hardened smiles and evil signs On each and all those holy nights Where dusters dust becomes the sale and lucifer, the light Bury me near the secret cove so they'll not know the way Bury me there, behind the rose so they'll not rile my grave I'll not reveal whose name still loose (?) Well their laugh of pain...And their harder smiles... And their rigid arms...And their evil signs... Longer days and the longer nights And their longer, and longer still On each and all those holy nights Where dusters dust becomes the sale and lucifer, the light |

Keep goin' getting higher
New worlds waiting in the sky Escape the feasting and the hunger Not the monsters in our minds Got our hands on a ship And stole away into the night The four of us and pasha dear She to steer and we to fight Fed up with rules and regulations No more laughter left on earth Outer space our one salvation May God help us in our search We fled so fast that we grew younger Put the ship on cruise control We all did our best with pasha But not as good as good ol' joe Monsters, monsters, monsters.....in the night Monsters, monsters, monsters.....in black and white Monsters, monsters, monsters.....out of control Monsters, monsters, monsters.....when you're alone Monsters, monsters, monsters.....feed on themselves Monsters, monsters, monsters.....on the road to hell Love never should have entered It was never in the plan We were finally going to have her And let joe be damned! Joe awoke from a stupor It was clear something was wrong He rushed in and found us with her And in his rage he aimed his gun One shot and it was over Pasha smiled and then was gone... |

Down in the garden district
Where the plants grow strong and tall Behind the bush there lurks a girl Who makes them strong and tall Villagers call her: quicklime girl Behind her back: quicklime girl Behind the bush: quicklime girl She's the mistress of the salmon salt: quicklime girl In the fall when plants return By harvest time, she knows the score Ripe and ready to the eye But rotten somehow to the core Villagers call her: quicklime girl Behind her back: quicklime girl Behind the bush: quicklime girl She's the mistress of the salmon salt: quicklime girl A harvest of life, or harvest of death One body of life, one body of death And when you've gone and choked to death With laughter and a little step I'll prepare the quicklime, friend For your ripe and ready grave It's springtime now and cares subside And the planting's almost done And fertile graves, it seems, exist Within a mile of that duke's joint Where coast guard crews still take their leave Lying listless in the sun And the quick lime girl still plies her trade The reduction of the many from the one And they call her: quicklime girl Behind her back: quicklime girl Behind the bush: quicklime girl She's the mistress of the salmon salt: quicklime girl A harvest of life, a harvest of death Resumes it's course each day Because it exists by schedule A harvest to live, ............................... And those that crawl, and those that chirp And next life's swans that seem to turn |
