Letra de Red Right Hand

[Verso 1]
Take a little walk to the edge of town
And go across the tracks
Where the viaduct looms like a bird of doom
As it shifts and cracks
Where secrets lie in the border fires and the humming wires
Well, you know you're never coming back
Past the square, past the bridge
Past the mills, past the stacks

[Coro]
On a gathering storm comes a tall handsome man
In a dusty black coat with a red right hand

[Verso 2]
He'll wrap you in his arms
And tell you that you've been a good boy
He'll rekindle all of those dreams
It took you a lifetime to destroy
He'll reach deep into the hole
Heal your shrinking soul
And there won't be a single thing
That you can do
He's a god, he's a man
He's a ghost, he's a guru

[Coro]
They're whispering his name across this disappearing land
But hidden in his coat is a red right hand

[Verso 3]
You don't have no money? He'll get you some
If you haven't got no car, he'll get you one
You've got no self-respect, you feel like an insect
Well, don't you worry, buddy, 'cause here he comes
Through the ghetto and the barrows
And the Bowery and the slums

[Coro]
A shadow is cast wherever he stands
Stacks of green paper in his red right hand

[Instrumental break]

[Verso 4]
You'll see him in your nightmares
You'll see him in your dreams
He'll appear out of nowhere
But he's not what he seems
You'll see him in your head and on the TV screen
Hey, buddy, I'm warning you to turn it off
He's a ghost, he's a god
He's a man, he's a guru

[Coro]
You're one microscopic cog in his catastrophic plan
Designed and directed by his red right hand
