Artist Info:
Once upon a time at the foot <br />
of a great mountain,<br />
there was a town where the <br />
people known as Happyfolk lived,<br />
their very existence a mystery to <br />
the rest of the world,<br />
obscured as it was by great clouds.<br />
Here they played out their peaceful <br />
lives,<br />
innocent of the litany of excess and<br />
violence that was growing in the <br />
world below.<br />
To live in harmony with the spirit of <br />
the mountain called Monkey was enough.<br />
Then one day Strangefolk arrived <br />
in the town.<br />
They came in camouflage, hidden <br />
behind dark glasses, but no one noticed them:<br />
they only saw shadows.<br />
You see, without the Truth of the Eyes, <br />
the Happyfolk were blind...<br />
<br />
Falling out of aeroplanes and hiding out <br />
in holes<br />
Waiting for the sunset to come, people<br />
going home<br />
Jump out from behind them and shoot <br />
them in the head<br />
Now everybody dancing the dance of the dead,<br />
the dance of the dead,<br />
the dance of the dead<br />
<br />
In time, Strangefolk found their way into the<br />
higher reaches of the mountain,<br />
and it was there that they found the caves <br />
of unimaginable Sincerity and Beauty.<br />
By chance, they stumbled upon the Place <br />
Where All Good Souls Come to Rest.<br />
The Strangefolk, they coveted the jewels in <br />
these caves above all things,<br />
and soon they began to mine the mountain,<br />
its rich seam fueling the chaos of their own <br />
world.<br />
Meanwhile, down in the town, the Happyfolk <br />
slept restlessly,<br />
their dreams invaded by shadowy figures <br />
digging away at their souls.<br />
Every day, people would wake and stare at <br />
the mountain.<br />
Why was it bringing darkness into their lives?<br />
And as the Strangefolk mined deeper and <br />
deeper into the mountain,<br />
holes began to appear, bringing with them <br />
a cold and bitter wind that chilled the very <br />
soul of the monkey.<br />
For the first time, the Happyfolk felt fearful <br />
for they knew that soon the Monkey would <br />
soon stir from its deep sleep.<br />
And then came a sound. Distant first, it grew<br />
into castrophany so immense it could be<br />
heard far away in space.<br />
There were no screams. There was no time.<br />
The mountain called Monkey had spoken.<br />
There was only fire.<br />
And then, nothing....<br />
<br />
O little town in U.S.A, your time has<br />
come to see<br />
There's nothing you believe you want<br />
But where were you when it all came <br />
down on me?<br />
Did you call me now....<br />
