Cold Dead Reckoning |
| I don’t mean to be a misery, but I have to tell you, tell you straight: |
| There are zombies in the closet and they’re not prepared, prepared to wait |
| We are the tribe that eats itself and spits out not a morsel thing |
| And navigates this desert by our cold dead reckoning |
| Does anybody have the charts, coordinates or maps-- |
| A hint of a direction to avoid further mishaps? |
| A throw of dice, a toss of coin decides what Mrs. Luck might bring |
| As we navigate this desert by our cold dead reckoning |
| Turmoil, tempest, tall tsunami, haven’t we heard it all before? |
| Await the Beast to join the feast; |
| this party is an open door |
| All are welcome! |
| All are joined in penitence, if it please the King |
| While we navigate this desert by our cold dead reckoning |
| We placed our trust in sad self-doubting leaders who have led |
| Led us through the dark to slip amongst the ranks and files of walking dead |
| Send to us a guiding symbol--tiny bird upon the wing-- |
| As we navigate this desert by our cold dead reckoning |
| Now, back across the Doggerland: will higher mighty force redeem |
| The one who dropped the moral compass, failed to fulfill the dream? |
| Will testimony tarnish and will sticky reputation cling |
| As we navigate this desert by our cold dead reckoning? |
| Cheer up, Charlie, brave a smile; |
| lift your chin and walk the walk |
| See angels watching over all; |
| the snake, the dove, the circling hawk |
| There must be another Eden: future garden of earthly delight |
| Next time, no fruit; |
| in birthday suit, walk naked through the heavenly night |
| As we navigate this desert by our cold dead reckoning |
