about

Let me tell you a little story about Bruce Campbell vs the Army of Darkness...
Inspired by the 80s songs of Stan Ridgway and the band Underworld (mk 1).

lyrics

Crash land on a real long day.
Tied up, they dragged you away.
Look up to see where you've gone.
Burned out. We've only begun.

Thrown down into a pit of night.
Heads up, get ready to fight.
Raise your hand to save your life.
Walking, on the edge of a knife.

Wait...
Seems like a couple of years.
There's been too many fights
And to many tears.
Wait...
Why can't we all get along?
Remember the smiles.
Remember the song:

Every time I close my eyes
I see Christmas crossed with the 4th of July.
Even when my day goes awry,
I've got this groovy feeling deep down inside.
Every time I close my eyes
It's like Christmas crossed with the 4th of July.
Even when I'm hurting inside,
I keep my chin up and swallow my pride.

So the hero rides out alone,
Searching for a way to go home.
Faced himself along the way,
Buried the very same day.
Was it real or just a dream?
Crazy, it's hard to believe.
Woke the demons with his voice.
Too late. You made the wrong choice.br>
Wait...
Seems like a couple of years.
There's been too many fights
And to many tears.
Wait...
Why can't we all get along?
Remember the smiles.
Remember the song:

Every time I close my eyes
I see Christmas crossed with the 4th of July.
Even when my day goes awry,
I've got this groovy feeling deep down inside.
Every time I close my eyes
It's like Christmas crossed with the 4th of July.
Even when I'm hurting inside,
I keep my chin up and swallow my pride.

Now it's time to take your stand.
Courage. It's all part of the plan.
Gather troops and ready arms.
Battle! Now sound the alarms.
Best your foes to win the war.
Burned out. Too tired and sore.
Look out before you get it wrong.
Too late! You're taking too long.

Wait...
Seems like a couple of years.
There's been too many fights
And to many tears.
Wait...
Why can't we all get along?
Remember the smiles.
Remember the song:

Every time I close my eyes
I see Christmas crossed with the 4th of July.
Even when my day goes awry,
I've got this groovy feeling deep down inside.
Every time I close my eyes
It's like Christmas crossed with the 4th of July.
Even when I'm hurting inside,
I keep my chin up and swallow my pride.
