Genesis - The Raven lyrics

Genesis Lamb Lies Down On Broadway The Raven He places the number into a tube A yellow plastic "shoobedoobe" It says: "Though your fingers may tickle You'll be safe in our pickle." Suddenly, black cloud comes down from the sky It's a supersize black bird that sure can fly The raven brings on darkness and night He flies right down, gives me one hell of a fright He takes the tube right out of my hands Man, I've got to find out where that black bird lands "Look here John, I've got to run I need you now, you going to come?" He says to me John: "Now can't you see Where the raven flies there's jeopardy We've been cured on the couch Now you're sick with your grouch I'll not risk my honey pouch Which my slouch will wear slung very low." Rael: He walks away and leaves me once again Even though I never learn I'd hoped he'd show just some concern I'm in agony of Slipperpain I pray my undercarriage will sustain The chase is on, the pace is hot But I'm running so very hard with everything I've got He leads me down an underpa** Though it narrows, he still flies very fast When the tunnel stops I catch sight of the tube, just as it drops I'm on top of a bank, to steep to climb I see it hit the water, just in time To watch it float away
