Lucifer’s Friend Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Seeing things I shouldn't see
New eyes I got to find
Mars, Venus and stars shaking
Their heads at me
No more todays, tonight I'll be riding the sky
Hey world look out I'm coming
Mars, Venus and stars shaking
Their heads at me
No more todays, tonight I'll be riding the sky
Tonight ride the sky, tonight ride the sky
The smile on his face turn me to stone
The words that he spoke
Wouldn't leave me alone
Mars, Venus and stars
Shaking their heads at me
No more todays tonight I'll be riding the sky
Tonight ride the sky, tonight ride the sky,
Tonight ride the sky
Tonight ride the sky

As my allies traverse past me, you could see me humming my tune.
