Lyrics:

Brothers and sisters rockingA dread beat, pulsing fire, burningChocolate hour and darkness creeping nightBlack veiled night is weepingElectric lights consoling, nightA small hall soaked in smokeA house of ganja mistMusic blazing, sounding, thumping fire, bloodBrothers and sisters rocking, stopping, rockingMusic breaking out, bleeding out, thumping out fire, burningElectric hour of the red bulbStaining the brain with a blood flowAnd a bad bad thing is brewingGanja crawling, creeping to the brainCold lights hurting, breaking, hurtingFire in the head an a dread beat bleeding, heating fire, dreadRocks rolling over hearts leaping wildRage rising out of the heat of the hurtAnd a fist curled in anger reaches a herThen flash of a blade from another to a himLeaps out for a dig of a flesh, of a piece of skinAnd blood, bitterness, exploding fire, wailing blood, and bleedingGenius
