Azrael Revisited
Keith Emerson, Lee Jackson (Bassist)
[Instrumental Intro]
[Chorus]
Azraela, Azraela
Azraela, Azraela
[Verse 1]
They asked me what grey thought
Has just clouded my eye?
I told them that Azrael
Looked down on their decline
What grey thought, if any
Crossed the landscape of your mind?
I told them that Azrael
Looks down on you from behind
[Chorus]
Azraela, Azraela
Azraela, Azraela
Azraela, Azraela
[Verse 2]
I told them what they asked
While holding my breath
That Azrael on wings of death
Collects his pound of flesh
I told them what they asked
While holding my breath
Azrael, the angel, brings only death
[Instrumental Bridge 1]
[Instrumental Bridge 2]
[Chorus]
Azraela, Azraela
Azraela, Azraela
Azraela, Azraela
Azraela, Azraela
Azraela, Azraela
Azraela, Azraela
[Instrumental Outro]
