Hellsville Lyrics - Legendary Pink Dots

Fixing on a lonely star on 4 Avengers morning, on the blood 

stained steps of Hope, forgotten, carrying our cross like 

guilty children waiting 'til our father's home. He'll crack 

our backs, he'll break our bones. His iron rod will comb 

the hair that stiffens on our spines. We walk defeated 

in a line. Our one release is in the fiery furnace . . . Take 

us swiftly, take us now to Hellsville (Bells peal! Roll 

the barrel . . . Down the pills.) But still we'll never die 

because we cannot pay enough. Our sweet Lord may be 

merciful, but he likes to play things tough. And HELL 

is where the action is. They came from lonely stars in 

search of wholesome entertainment. We're the stars! We're 

the stars that line the stage--the attraction of the 

ages. Buy a ticket, feel our pain. God, it's outrageous! 

It's a scream in Hellsville.
