Eastern Current/Red Mare Rising

[Intro] (Gong crash) (Heavy distorted guitar riff, dry and crunchy) (Drums enter with Taiko accents) [Verse 1] Sixty years of silence, waitin’ in the dark The wheel is turnin’ slow, just waitin’ for the spark It ain't no wood or metal, it ain't no water sign We got a red-hot beast comin' down the line! The stable doors are bustin', the smoke is gettin' thick Better check your pulse, man, it’s gonna make you sick! [Pre-Chorus] (Erhu slide high pitch) Yeah, the temperature is risin’ high! We’re painting crimson on the midnight sky! [Chorus] (Heavy Gang Vocals) HERE COMES THE FIRE HORSE! Runnin’ wild, runnin’ off the course! FIRE HORSE! High voltage with a primal force! Burn the calendar! Break the chain! Red Thunder gallops on the open plain! FIRE HORSE! [Verse 2] You can’t tame the spirit, you can’t hold the reins Got liquid lava pumpin’ through the veins Forget the Snake, he’s slithered out the door We got a heavy metal hoofbeat shake the floor! Bad luck for the wicked, good luck for the bold A legend written in the ancient scroll! [Pre-Chorus] (Guitar chugging) Yeah, the warning bell begins to ring! Hail to the erratic, electric King! [Chorus] (Heavy Gang Vocals) HERE COMES THE FIRE HORSE! Runnin’ wild, runnin’ off the course! FIRE HORSE! High voltage with a primal force! Kick the stalls down! Watch it blow! Ready, set, look out—GONG! [Instrumental Solo] (Fast Guitar Solo trading licks with Erhu Fiddle) (High energy, pentatonic scales) [Bridge] (Bass and Woodblocks only) Red... Mane... Burnin’... Rain... Sixty... Years... Face... Your... Fears... (Snare build up) OYYYY! [Outro] FIRE HORSE! (Yeah!) FIRE HORSE! (It’s comin’ for you!) FIRE HORSE! (Better move aside!) FIRE HORSE! (Massive Gong Smash) (Feedback fade out) (Spoken Word: Happy New Year, mate... put out that fire.) [End]
