They held their heads with laughs of pain They'd learned from men who'd just refrain From glancing at a mirror's face
Seven screaming diz-busters Who lurk behind the rose Cast iron for a bloodstream And ice behind their eyes
On each and all those holy nights When duster's dust becomes the sale And Lucifer the light, the light
They're long so long this time of year When stars be crossed by twirling fear You don't suppose I'd prove surprised
Well seven screaming diz-busters Should go the route and die Without that warmth they've learned to crave With hardened smiles and evil signs (ah, well)
Bury me near the secret cove So they'll not know the way Bury me round behind the rose So they'll not rile my grave I'll not reveal whose name's still lost
Well their laughs of pain, Ah, ha, ha, ha!
And their harder smiles... And their rigid arms... And their evil signs...
The longer days and the longer nights Yeah they're longer... They're longer still
On each and all those holy nights When duster's dust becomes the sale And Lucifer the light
Lucifer the light Lucifer the light Lucifer the light Lucifer the light Lucifer the light Oh, the light Lucifer the light I can't stand the light Lucifer the light I can't stand it now Lucifer the light No Lucifer the light Can't stand the light Lucifer the light Lucifer the light Can't stand the light Lucifer the light Can't stand the light Lucifer the light Lucifer the light Can't stand the light Lucifer the light Oh no! Lucifer the light Aahhh Lucifer the light Lucifer the light I can't I can't Lucifer the light No Lucifer the light Can't stand it Lucifer the light Can't stand it, no Lucifer the light Can't stand it Lucifer the light Can't Lucifer the light Can't I can't I can't can't can't can't stand it Lucifer the light Lucifer the light Just can't stand the light Lucifer the light one Lucifer the light two Lucifer the light three Lucifer the light four Lucifer the light five Lucifer the light six Lucifer the light And seven
