Spectre versus Rector Songtext
von The Fall

Aye, my James, be bold, be bold
Young sucker, rape, villain
Sludge, hate you, chew, chew, son
Aye, my James, be bold, be bold
Young sucker, rape, villain
Van Greenway, a-come on
Sludge, hate you, chew, chew, son

Part one, spectre versus rector
Rector live in Hampshire
The spectre was from Czerwina
It eat the dust in the air
The rector locked his doors

Part two, detective drives to Hampshire
Stops because of the fog there
And fakes a visit to the rector


And meanwhile, and meanwhile
Spectre possesses rector
And rector becomes spectre
Sludge, hate you, chew, chew, son
Sludge, hate you, chew, chew, son

Enter inspector
Even as he spoke
A dust devil suddenly rose and struck him

The third, detective versus rector
Detective versus rector possessed by spectre
Spectre blows him against the wall
Says, "Derich, this is your fall
I′ve waited to seize you for this
Damn Latin, my hate is crisp
I'll rip your fat body to pieces"

Aye, my James, be bold, be bold
Young sucker, rape, villain
Van Greenway, a-come on


Scene five, scene five
Comes a hero
Soul-possessed a thousand times
Only he could rescue rector
Only he could save inspector
But the hero was a strange man
Those powers, take them away, he said
They′re only funeral decoration
And oh, this is a drudge nation
A nation of no imagination
The stupid man is their ideal
They shook me and think me unclean
Unclean

I have saved a thousand souls
They cannot even save their own
I've tasted blood but always good
It's like I′ve drunk myself sober
I get better as I get older

Aye, my James, gonna be bold, be bold
Young sucker, rape, villain
Van Greenway, a-come on
Sludge, hate you, chew, chew, son
Sludge, hate you, chew, chew, son

Part six
That was his kick from life
That′s how he had out his wife
Selling his soul to the devil
And the spectre enters hero
But the possession is ineffectual
But the possession is ineffectual
But the possession is ineffectual

Aye, my James, be bold, be bold
Young sucker, rape, villain
Van Greenway, a-come on
Sludge, hate you, chew, chew, son
Sludge, hate you, chew, chew, son
Sludge, hate you, chew, chew, son

Last scene
Hero and inspector walk from the scene
Is the spectre banished forever?
The inspector is insane
The hero goes back into the mountain
The hero goes back into the mountain
He was exhausted
Exorcist is exhausted
The rector is dead on the floor

Aye, my James, be bold, be bold
Young sucker, rape, villain
Van Greenway, a-come on
Sludge, hate you, chew, chew, son
Sludge, hate you, chew, chew, son
Sludge, hate you, chew, chew, son
Sludge, hate you, chew, chew, son
Van Greenway, a-come on
Van Greenway, a-come on
Young sucker, rape, villain
Young sucker, rape, villain
