Run Gerald

Berimbau, tablas, bass, congas, one-string, rain stick, heavy dark kick drum, tribalistic, ritualism, samples, turntablism

[Intro]
[all lyrics are spoken]
[Sfx sound of panting animal]
[Sfx sound of barking dog]

[Verse]
[spoken]
[berimbau only]
Cutting paths through stone and grass
A flash of fur the fall of pads
The running of the pack
Alpha at the head
Betas fan from the back
Silent
The embodiment of violence

[Prechorus]
[tablas Thrumming rhythm]

[Spoken Word]
[congas begin]
Gerald had seen the tribe as the moon rose
All casting off their traditional robes
They smiled at him with features
Fractured and in flow

[Verse 2]
[heavy kick begins]
And Gerald
Saw them extend jaws
Razor lined maws 
Eyes like embers burning dim
Skin that shimmered sheared
Fur within grown out in seconds
He froze watching it appear
A trembling limb paralysis
In a rattle phlegmatic croak
One of the tribal folk 
as their jaw broke
Spoke

RUN GERALD RUN

And gerald ran godamn he ran
Till his lung screamed and his body bled
They let him get a headstart
See: Gerald has eyes best suited
For night drives with headlights
Not whether you survive or not
Depends on your sure step
Seeing loose rocks in nights dark
As you would guess
gerald ran himself into a bloody mess

As he fled in his head he
Thought they thought he knew too much
Seen what they prefer hdden
And would bring attention
To this private old tribe’s 
valley of ancient wisdom
Explaining why he he yelled
 that there was no one he’d tell
Only to hear
Like a gutteral growl
Half heckle half howl
A foul inhuman voice speak
In an shriek seemingly sung;

RUN GERALD RUN
RUN GERALD RUN

But as the wolves bore down
The panting jaw champing sounds 
Resounding 
there was a simpler truth at hand

It was time to teach their youth
How to hunt 
man.

Huh huh huh huh huh huh flank left
Flank right huh huh hub grab earth fly
Huh huh huh huh huh hamstring cut 
Prey goes down, bring the circle tight
Claw scratch bite pound huh huh huh
Huh huh huh Here are the veins
Where man bleeds out huh huh huh
Theses bones break best 
With a closed fist against the chest just right
And these with claws and bite
Do not dismiss dismemberment
Watch where you leave tracks
We do this like this 
to ensure the tribes existence

huh huh here we come
3.   2.   1.   You better
