Roky Erickson - Burn The Flames Lyrics
Here I sitA vampire at my pianoThe flames burn glaringly higherAnd the eyes that stare through the darknessThough they have no formThere's no need for alarmSo burn, so burn, burn the flamesHigher and higherSo burn, burn the flames, never to expireHere I sitA skeleton at my organThe candles in my candelabraBurn hellishly hellish hellAnd the laughter unending echoesThrough the haunted houseA little Christmas spirit ghostly haunting deadly spiritEvery creature is stirringEven a mouseSo burn, so burn, burn the flamesHigher, higher, higher and higherSo burn, burn the flames, never to expireSo burn, so burn, burn the flamesHigher, higher, higher and higherSo burn, burn the flames, never to expireHere I sit myself at my instrumentsHere they sit at their instrumentsAnd the music fills and fills, terrifies, horrifies, forever scaresThe children of the nightWhat music we makeSo burn, so burn, burn the flamesHigher and higherSo burn, burn the flames, never to expire
