Red Right Hand (2011 Remastered Version) Lyrics - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Take a little walk to the edge of town 

And go across the tracks 

Where the viaduct looms 

 

Like a bird of doom 

As it shifts and cracks 

Where secrets lie in the border fires 

In the humming wires 

Hey man, you know 

You're never coming back 

Past the square, past the bridge 

Past the mills, past the stacks 

On a gathering storm comes 

A tall handsome man 

In a dusty black coat with 

A red right hand

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

 

He'll wrap you in his arms 

Tell you that you've been a good boy 

He'll rekindle all the dreams 

It took you a lifetime to destroy 

He'll reach deep into the hole 

Heal your shrinking soul 

But there won't be a single thing 

That you can do 

He's a god, he's a man 

He's a ghost, he's a guru 

They're whispering his name 

Through this disappearing land 

But hidden in his coat 

 

Is a red right hand 

 

You don't have no money? 

He'll get you some 

You don't have no car? 

He'll get you one 

You don't have no self-respect 

You feel like an insect 

Well don't you worry buddy 

'cause here he comes 

Through the ghettos and the barrio 

And the bowery and the slum 

A shadow is cast wherever he stands 

 

Stacks of green paper in his 

Red right hand 

 

You'll see him in your nightmares 

You'll see him in your dreams 

He'll appear out of nowhere but 

He ain't what he seems 

You'll see him in your head 

On the TV screen 

And hey buddy, I'm warning 

You to turn it off 

He's a ghost, he's a god 

He's a man, he's a guru 

You're one microscopic cog 

In his catastrophic plan 

Designed and directed by 

His red right hand
