about

This is a rock epic - no wait, it's THE rock epic.

lyrics

* These lyrics are not meant to be literal, but rather homage to a great legend. We apologize to anyone that the future was unkind to. We hope that the future will be good for everyone.

Verse 1
We fought the great Phoenix at the birth of the sun
We had only keyboards, however, we won
He told us our destiny, written in gold
Our fate he ordained was from legends of old
The prophecy foretold the rock apocalypse
Women and children dying under slave whips
But out of the darkness a mighty Tri-force
Burned through the void on their hundred years horse.
The rock was pure lightning and pillars of light
Came forthwith from his eyes
Smiting the old
Saving the brides

Pre-chorus
Forged by a legend
From a space trilogy
We fight outrageous evil
We ride the sea-beast

Chorus
You can’t kill the Future
[Where’d you hear that rumor]
This legend lives forever
[It’s the great endeavor]

Verse 2
The big bang, our first album, created the Earth
Whereby Satan fell, and thus was Hell’s birth
We blazed out the solos to block out the sun
And kill all the dinos off to extinction
Our furious bass drum began the arms race
We rocked the red right off Mao Zedong’s face
And when tycoons made millions in the typewriter age
We invented the internet through pure rock rage
And back in the glorious old days of King Tut
Out of our awesome the pyramids were cut
We slayed all the dragons of your childhood dreams
We also slayed your dreams

Prechorus
Chorus
