Raiderz Of The Damned a.k.a. Jason Little vs. Dj Hammond Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just four boys in the basement chillin', playin' D&D
There was Lucas, there was Willy Will
And Dustin, there was a Mike
But one night, Will goes missing while he's ridin' on his bike
Yikes
That's when they met me, Elev
I had no hair on my head
Courtesy of Dr. Brenner who's huntin' me twenty-four sev
Joyce was hanging Christmas lights in the web
Started hearing something Willy had said
This could be a message from the beyond
What happened to Barb? She's just gone in the Upside Down
Hopper's on top of the case
While I'm throwing vans into space
I'm lying down in a tank
Trying my best to find Willy and Dustin's got pudding for days
Demogorgon's getting all in my way
Blast him to pieces just like a grenade
Will's now at home, coughin' slugs in the sink
What happened to me? I'm in the Upside Down
What about now? The saga continues, tune in to see how
Upside down, what about now?
The saga continues, tune in to see how
All I need is my Eggo waffles, I'm in love with those
What I'm left with when I use my powers is a bloody nose, yeah
Bad news when you see that bloody nose, yeah
Bad news when you see that bloody nose
The above lyrics are from the song Stranger Things, a tribute to the popular Netflix series of the same name. The song takes us back to Indiana in 1983, where four boys named Lucas, Willy, Dustin, and Mike are hanging out and playing Dungeons & Dragons in their basement. However, their lives take a turn for the worse when Willy Will goes missing while riding his bike. That's when they meet Eleven (Elev), who has no hair on her head and has been hunted by Dr. Brenner. Joyce, Willy's mother, starts to hear his voice and becomes convinced that it's a message from the beyond. Meanwhile, Chief Hopper is investigating the case and trying to find Willy.
The lyrics also mention Demogorgon, a central monster from the series, that gets in Elev's way. Despite this, she manages to use her powers to blast him to pieces. The lyrics also reveal that Will returns home and begins to cough up slugs in the sink. The song concludes by suggesting that the saga will continue, with more drama and twists in store for the audience.
