Fireworks

Blue Öyster Cult · Spectres [1977]

She went down to her house by the water

To hide herself from his grasp

He went down to the water to find her

To consummate their love at last



Then the lightning flashing lightning, flashing, crashing

Fireworks shooting off in her head in her head

The earth was shaking earth, shaking, quaking

Fireworks pouring down on her head on her head

Only sound she heard was sound, lovely word

Fireworks like a charm annointed

Blazing red



She went down to escape from her prison

To free herself from her fear

All those years up to here with tradition

And opportunity so near



Then the lightning flashing lightning, flashing, crashing

Fireworks shooting off in her head in her head

The earth was shaking earth, shaking, quaking

Fireworks pouring down on her head on her head

Only sound she heard was sound, lovely word

Fireworks like a charm annointed

Blazing red



She went down on a snow white pillow

To cast herself in the looking glass

He knew the time had finally come now

To break the spell they shared at last



Then the lightning flashing lightning, flashing, crashing

Fireworks shooting off in her head in her head

The earth was shaking earth, shaking, quaking

Fireworks pouring down on her head on her head

Only sound she heard was sound, lovely word

Fireworks like a charm annointed



The lightning flashing lightning, flashing, crashing

Fireworks shooting off in her head in her head

The earth was shaking earth, shaking, quaking

Fireworks pouring down on her head on her head

Only sound she heard was sound, lovely word

Fireworks like a charm annointed
