From the recording SHOWDOWN - EP
Lyrics
SOMETHIN’ WICKED
A blood moon is risin’, as the corn sways in the wind
The scarecrow stands watch, but who’s watchin’ him
A wolf howls in the distance, that’s one less soul to save
You can dodge a bullet, but not the grave
Bridge:
You better drop to your knees and pray
Chorus:
Those hounds of hell are chasin’, they got them demons on the run
Somethin’ wicked this way comes
Saints turn into sinners, as they’re staring down a gun
Somethin’ wicked this way comes, something wicked… this way comes
A storm is a brewin’, as thunder shakes the ground
You can ride the lighnin’, but not the clouds
That ole scarecrow is sleepin’, he thinks his job is done
A black cat has nine lives, but you’ve got one
Bridge:
You better pray for the risin’ sun
