Bog Monster, Take the Wheel

lyrics

I’ve been around the world and back again twice.
Said I’m no stranger to the danger on the back roads or under big city lights.
I’m just trying to live my life, but sometimes people have other plans for ya.
They said I owed them from a job in 06’ when the cops had showed up, so I bugged out of there quick.
They bagged me up and threw me in the river like a dog. Left for dead in cedar bog.

A voice below the river bed rang in my head saying, “Take my hand. I can give you life again and help you find your vengeance.”

Now I’ve been baptized in them stagnant waters.
Given witness by the flora and fauna.
My sense of purpose never seemed so clear.
Oh I say Bog Monster, take the wheel.

Now we’re cruising down the highway in his El Camino
A black SS with a 454.
Guns in the front and bodies in the trunk
Cause that’s how a Bog Monster gets shit done.

A voice below the river bed rang in my head saying, “Take my hand. I can give you life again and help you find your vengeance.”

Now I’ve been baptized in them stagnant waters.
Given witness by the flora and fauna.
My sense of purpose never seemed so clear.
Oh I say Bog Monster, take the wheel.

I am your old, pretty song in the deep.

Now I’ve been baptized in them stagnant waters.
Given witness by the flora and fauna.
My sense of purpose never seemed so clear.
Oh I say Bog Monster, take the wheel.
