[00:00.00]Bound For Hell - Love and Rockets
[00:13.25]Well faith flies off the mountain everyday
[00:20.64]No parachute and no crash to see
[00:26.54]Yes my faith flies off a mountain everyday
[00:33.32]And there's no parachute no goddamn crash to see
[00:40.32]Fly the little monkey up a telegraph pole
[00:46.98]Sending out a signal to somebody somebody
[00:51.84]Somebody please somebody
[01:00.52]I want to hear a song that makes me believe in something
[01:06.78]I want to hear a song that makes me believe something
[01:13.33]I want to hear a song that makes me believe
[01:16.70]There's something to believe in
[01:20.51]I want to hear a song that makes me believe
[01:36.74]Had a dream
[01:39.86]I was riding on a train that wasn't bound for glory
[01:46.95]Riding on a train the train was bound for hell
[01:53.50]Riding on a train that wasn't bound for glory that's for sure
[02:00.15]Riding on a train that's bound for hell
[02:07.02]The engine with human blood was damp
[02:09.95]The headlight was her brimstone lamp
[02:13.33]And then for fuel I shoveled in bones
[02:16.69]And the furnace roared with a thousand groans
[02:23.74]The tank was filled with lager beer
[02:26.67]The devil himself was engineer
[02:30.10]The passengers were a mixed up crew
[02:33.54]The churchman in his battered suit
[02:39.95]The rich in broadcloth poor in rags
[02:43.38]Handsome girls wrinkled hags
[02:46.82]Black men yellow red and white
[02:50.19]Chained together fearful sight
[02:56.91]The dream was storming at full pace
[02:59.97]The sulfer fumes burned hands and face
[03:03.41]Wilder and wilder the country grew
[03:06.65]Faster and faster the engine flew
[03:17.05]Loud and terrible thunder crashed
[03:20.11]Whiter brighter lighing flash
[03:23.76]Hotter still the air became
[03:26.63]So clothes will burn from each shrinking frame
[03:36.47]There came a fearfull ear-splitting yell
[03:39.65]Yell Satan: "dance the next stop's hell"
[03:43.33]Twas then the passengers shrieked with pain
[03:46.61]And begged the devil to stop the train
[03:51.80]Stop this train
[03:56.25]He shrieked and roared and grinned with glee
[03:59.93]And mocked and laughed at their misery
[04:03.00]"My friends you've bought your seats on this road
[04:06.56]I've got to get through with a complete load"
[04:16.64]You've pulled in the weak you've cheated the poor
[04:19.82]You starving tramp you turned from the door
[04:23.25]You've up gold till your purses bust
[04:26.54]You've give a beastly lust
[04:29.98]You've mocked at god in your hellful pride
[04:33.15]You've killed and you've cheated and plundered and lied
[04:36.53]You've come across men and you've swore and you've stole
[04:39.75]Not a one in body and soul
[04:45.34]Body and soul
[04:49.65]So you've paid full fare and I'll carry you through
[04:52.98]If there's one no belong and let know who
[04:56.57]And here's a time when I ain't no liar
[04:59.74]A land that will save you a land of fire
[05:06.49]And your flesh will scorch in the flames that roar
[05:09.92]You'll sizzle and burn from
[05:13.54]And I awake with a thrilling cry
[05:16.34]My were clothes were wet my hair stood high
[05:19.76]And I prayed as I've never until that hour
[05:23.07]To be saved from hell and the devil's power
[05:26.51]At present my vows were not in vain
[05:29.76]That I payed no fare on that hellbound train
