Red Right Hand - From the Motion Picture "Hellboy"

Lyrics

Take a litle walk to the edge of town
 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,
 In the humming wires
 Hey man, you know
 You're never coming back
 Past the square, past the bridge,
 Past the mills, past the stacks
 On a gathering storm comes
 A tall handsome man
 In a dusty black coat with
 A red right hand
 ♪
 He'll wrap you in his arms
 Tell you that you've been a good boy
 He'll rekindle all the dreams
 It took you a lifetime to destroy
 He'll reach deep into the hole
 Heal your shrinking soul
 But 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
 They're whispering his name
 Through this disappearing land
 But hidden in his coat
 Is a red right hand
 ♪
 They're whispering his name
 Through this disappearing land
 But hidden in his coat
 Is a red right hand
 ♪
 You'll see him in your nightmares
 You'll see him in your dreams
 He'll appear out of nowhere but
 He ain't what he seems
 You'll see him in your head
 On the TV screen
 And 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
 You're one microscopic cog
 In his catastrophic plan
 Designed and directed by
 His red right hand
