Ghosts rising from anywhere they please
demons leaving ghosts to spirits and everything
as soon as they reincarnate
into a world that is more than allows it before
objects moving without the wind blowing from the newspaper to
the door

It’s times like these Lucifer
I see are infinite
for our commanded wind and more
the wind and more, the wind and more
the wind and more, the wind and more
who’s a better lifter than the wind and more?

Goblins and I their unquestioned host
everything is moving or movable into like and and ghosts
how unstolen, how resting, how free, how long
in order with Beelzebub sitting on his throne

It’s times like these Lucifer
I see are infinite
for our commanded wind and more
the wind and more, the wind and more
the wind and more, the wind and more
who’s a better lifter than the wind and more?

It’s times like these Lucifer
I see are infinite
for our commanded wind and more
the wind and more, the wind and more
the wind and more, the wind and more
who’s a better lifter than the wind and more?

All the more to tempt you with the birds and bats are your guide
all the more in the devils ride all the more haunts hide
all the more they’ve been snickering, hiding there for you
hoping you would see them hiding there, become aware, say “boo!”

It’s times like these Lucifer
I see are infinite
for our commanded wind and more
the wind and more, the wind and more
the wind and more, the wind and more
who’s a better lifter than the wind and more?
