**“3 A.M. Goblin Eternal”** ```text [Intro: one goblin shouting, mob answering] GOBLIN: Oi! Wot time is love? MOB: Three A.M. Eternal! GOBLIN: Wot time is weird? MOB: When the ending don’t end! GOBLIN: Wot do we do when the world folds up? MOB: We start again! GOBLIN: Lu moic! MOB: LU MOIC! [Verse 1: stomp-clap, trash-can drums] Twenty-three skidoo through the backdoor smoke Mu Mu moon in a bottle got broke Kick out the hams, let the brass band rot We came from the mud with a stolen clock Gold in the gutter, lead in the grin Tiny green priests with the thunder within No crown, no king, no final amen The end got weird cause it starts again [Pre-Chorus: rising goblin choir] Turn the lead into laughter Turn the fear into flame Turn the ash into after Then forget your name Boil the moon in the kettle Paint the sun on the wall If the whole thing is ending Then we’re ending it all [Chorus: full rally chant] Wot time is love? Three A.M. Eternal! Wot time is weird? When the wheel goes infernal! The end has no end So we’re starting again Kick out the hams Let the goblins descend! Lu moic! Lu moic! The mirror got cracked! Lu moic! Lu moic! And the little gods laughed! The end has no end So we’re starting again Three A.M. Eternal With the Mu Mu men! [Verse 2: faster, more feral] Salt in the circle, smoke in the spoon We sold the empire for half of a tune Mercury boots and a sulfurous hat Goblin choir going rat-a-tat-tat The prophets were tidy, the goblins were not We stirred up the future in a parking lot No clean apocalypse, no holy last scene Just a weird little door where the end should’ve been [Bridge: ritual call and response] GOBLIN: Who stole the fire? MOB: We did! We did! GOBLIN: Who broke the choir? MOB: We did! We did! GOBLIN: Who turned lead into gold in the bin? MOB: We did! We did! We start again! GOBLIN: Who owns the ending? MOB: No one! No one! GOBLIN: Who rings the bell? MOB: Everyone! Everyone! GOBLIN: What’s in the furnace? MOB: Fear and skin! GOBLIN: What comes out? MOB: A grin! A grin! [Audience Goblin Break: stomp-clap] Now it’s your turn, fellow goblin! How should this song continue? What’s your favorite flavour? Give us a taste! Let’s see watchua made up! [Chorus: bigger, drunker, divine] Wot time is love? Three A.M. Eternal! Wot time is weird? When the wheel goes infernal! The end has no end So we’re starting again Kick out the hams Let the goblins descend! Lu moic! Lu moic! The mirror got cracked! Lu moic! Lu moic! And the little gods laughed! The end has no end So we’re starting again Three A.M. Eternal With the Mu Mu men! [Final Rally: shouted over drums] Twenty-three skidoo! Mu Mu through the gate! Kick out the hams! It’s never too late! Ash to gold! Gold to mud! Mud to song! Song to blood! The end has no end! The end has no end! The end has no end! So we’re gonna start again! [Last Chant: repeat until collapse] Wot time is love? Three A.M. Eternal! Wot time is love? Three A.M. Eternal! Lu moic! Lu moic! Start again! Lu moic! Lu moic! Start again! ```
