Bloody hammer - Roky Erickson

Demon is up in the attic to the left

My eye turns to the left to say, «no»

You said, «First, I am the special one.»

I never hammered my mind out

I never have the bloody hammer

I never have the bloody

I never have the bloody hammer

I am the doctor

I am the psychiatrist

To make sure they don’t think that they’d hammer their minds out

or that they’d have a

or that they’d have a bloody hammer

or that they’d have a bloody

or that they’d have a bloody hammer

Second, I am the special one

My eyes, green and blue

and safely unbegotten

to the left to say, «no»

While the others with their hair turned white,

they just roll their eyes back to the top of their head

and hammer the attic floor with a bloody hammer

I never have the bloody hammer

I never have the bloody

I never have the bloody hammer

It’s not a sledgehammer

It’s not a chisel

It’s not a train

but a thought of unlimited horror for Dr. O’Chane

Dr. O’Chane

Baby ghost says beat it with your chains

Baby ghost says don’t drag your chain away, Dr. O’Chane

Doctor O’Chane, Doctor O’Chane

the baby ghost says «beat it with your chain»

the baby ghost says «drag your chain away, Doctor O’Chane.»

The ghost says, beat it with your chains

The ghost saysa drag your chain away, Dr. O’Trey

All bats are is Dracula vampires

Vampires in rain

Vampires in lightning for Dr. O’Chane

Dr. O’Chane

The baby ghost in the 1900s says beat it with your chain

The baby ghost says

don’t drag your spoon, drag your chain away, Dr. O’Chane

Demon is up in the attic to the left

I never hammer my mind out

I never have the bloody hammer

I never have the bloody
