Blue Oyster Cult - Astronomy Lyrics

Blue Oyster Cult - Astronomy Video

The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst
Out at you from their hiding place
Like acid and oil on a madman's face
His reason tends to fly away
Like lesser birds on the four winds
Like silver scrapes in May
And now the sand's become a crust
And most of you have gone away
 
Come Susie dear, let's take a walk
Just out there upon the beach
I know you'll soon be married
And you'll want to know where winds come from
Well it's never said at all
On the map that Carrie reads
Behind the clock back there you know
At the Four Winds Bar
 
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
 
Four winds at the Four Winds Bar
Two doors locked and windows barred
One door to let to take you in
The other one just mirrors it
 
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
 
Hellish glare and inference
The other one's a duplicate
The Queenly flux, eternal light
Or the light that never warms
Or the light that never, never warms
Or the light that never
Never warms
Never warms
Never warms
 
The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst
Out at you from their hiding place
Miss Carrie nurse and Susie dear
Would find themselves at Four Winds Bar
 
It's the nexus of the crisis
And the origin of storms
Just the place to hopelessly
Encounter time and then came me
 
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
 
Call me Desdinova
Eternal light
These gravely digs of mine
Will surely prove a sight
And don't forget my dog
Fixed and consequent
 
Astronomy...a star
Astronomy...a star
Astronomy...a star
Astronomy...a star
