Roky Erickson - Anthem (I Promise) Lyrics
I promise, I promiseMy green and blue eyes to you fromI promise, I promiseMy green and blue eyes to you fromFor you I cool the streets with the wind at nightIn the day I beat the sun with the cobblestonesAnd cool the wind of the Nile at nightThe earth I fill with diamonds plus lightTo say they never, never biteI promise, I promiseMy green and blue eyes to you fromI promise, I promiseMy green and blue eyes to you fromWith you God chose me his wifeLucifer and the mother of witchesIn marriage they uniteMy gremlins color purple left and lightTo say they never, never biteI promise, I promiseMy green and blue eyes to you fromI promise, I promiseMy green and blue eyes to you fromI promise, I promiseMy green and blue eyes to you fromI promise, I promiseMy green and blue eyes to you fromMay 9th, 1976Satan's came to earth view May 9thGremlins have picturesOf the anniversary of ChristThe square root of zeroSomething smaller than zeroWhich keeps getting smallerKeep you out of sight and soulI promise, I promiseMy green and blue eyes to you fromI promise, I promiseMy green and blue eyes to youI promise, I promiseMy green and blue eyes to you fromI promise, I promiseMy green and blue eyes to you fromI promise
