Red Right Hand Songtext
von Smoke Stack Rhino

Take a little walk to the edge of town
And go across the tracks

Where the viaduct blooms like a bird of doom
As it shifts and cracks
Where the secrets lie in the boiler fires
In the humming wires
Hey man, you know you′re never coming back
Past the bridge, past the mills
Past the square, past the slaves

On the gathering storm comes a tall handsome man
But hidden in his coat is a red right hand

Red right hand


Well he'll wrap you in his arms and tell you
You′ve been a good boy
He'll rekindle all your dreams and cook you
Enough time to destroy
You'll reach into the hole, heal your shrinking soul
But there won′t be a single thing you can do
He′s a god, he's a man, he′s a ghost, he's a guru
And they′re whispering his name through this disappearing land

But hidden in his coat is a red right hand
Red right hand

Here's a red right hand
Here′s a red right hand
Here's a red right hand

Hidden in his coat is a red right hand
Red right hand
Red right hand
Red right hand
Hidden in his coat is his red right hand
