Scott Walker - Old Man’s Back Again

Happy Birthday Scott Walker Scott Walker - Old Man’s Back Again Album “Scott 4“ (1969) “I seen a hand, I seen a vision It was reaching through the clouds, To risk a dream A shadow cross the sky And it crushed into the ground, Just like a beast The old man’s back again The old man’s back again I seen a woman, standing in the snow She was silent as she watched them take her man Teardrops burned her cheeks for she thought she’d heard, The shadow had left this land The old man’s back again The old man’s back again The crowds just gathered, their faces turned away And they queue all day like dragons of disgust All the women whispering Wondering just what these young hot-heads want of us And entres vie he cries with eyes that ring like chimes His anti-worlds go spinning through his head He burns
