Lyrics for Song: Seven Chinese Brothers
Lyrics for Album: Reckoning
This mellow, sweet, short-haired boy, woman offers pull up a seat
Take in one symphony now, we've just begun to battle
Wrap your heel in bones of steel, turn the leg, a twist of color
Autumn waited hold it to you in the colored come another
Seven chinese brothers swallowing the ocean
Seven thousand years to sleep away the pain
She will return, she will return
This mellow, sweet, short-haired boy, woman offers pull up a seat
Take in one symphony now, we've just begun to battle
Wrap your heel in bones of steel, turn the leg, a twist of color
Autumn waded seven seas swimming colored come another
Seven chinese brothers swallowing the ocean
Seven thousand years to sleep away the pain
She will return, she will return
This mellow, sweet, short-haired boy, woman offers pull up a chair
Take in one symphony now, I guess we lost that battle
Wrap your heel in bones of steel, turn the leg, a twist of color
Autumn waded seven seas swimming colored come another
Seven chinese brothers swallowing the ocean
Seven thousand years the Communi did reign
She will return, she will return

Seven Chinese Brothers
Released in 1991 on the album Reckoning, "Seven Chinese Brothers" stands as a defining track in R.E.M.'s evolution toward a more polished, radio-friendly sound. The song features a driving, rhythmic guitar riff and a soaring chorus that marked a significant departure from the band's earlier, more experimental indie rock style. Produced by Peter Gabriel, the recording reflects the collaborative spirit of the era while maintaining the band's signature melodic sensibility. It remains a staple of their discography, often cited as a bridge between their underground roots and mainstream success, showcasing their ability to craft anthemic pop-rock that resonated with a wide audience. |
