I Am Orc

Verse 1

Cold dead planet in the pit of space
Not a spark of life for light-years around
But the universe is turnin' and primordial soup is churnin'
And something big is goin' down

Fearful symmetry's arising in the distant deep
The Rite of Spring has now begun
Energy and heat and now they're crawlin' from the peat
You gotta wonder how the deed was done

Was it Darwinism or some ancient Demiurge?
'Cause this ain't got no rhyme or reason, just that primal urge

Charles 1

Hot hot hot
It's teeming in the ocean
Hot hot hot
Prepare for the explosion!
Hot hot hot
The turning point of everything is here

Verse 2

Nobody lives forever so I'm livin' for this moment
Don't tell me I should think it through
Just seventeen and now I'm melting in her dream
We're gonna do what children do

Your mama told you no, I don't care about that
'Cause honey, we're the gods tonight
We're waging war in heaven, you're the Hera to my Zeus
And my lightning is about to strike

Silverstein ain't my name but you know my tree's a giver
Let me introduce you to the sacred river
Big liver!

Charles 2

Hot hot hot
Can't live without emotion
Hot hot hot
Prepare for the explosion!
Hot hot hot
The turning point of everything is here

Verse 3

A shadow of division in Eternity is looming
And Albion is torn apart
Urizen's forging chains as he thunders his commandments
That reason ought to rule the heart

Shall we bow in worship to this blind old man?
Let the cry of battle ring!
On the tree he pours his lies in, I will crucify Urizen
For I am eldest of all things

If I could sing this symphony I'd build a dome in air
And you'd beware my flashing eyes and floating hair

Charles 3

I am Orc!
Bow down and give devotion
I am Orc!
Prepare for the explosion!
I am Orc
The turning point of everything is here

Chorus 4

Hot hot hot
'Cause I'm diggin' deep for diamond ore
Hot hot hot
And there's voices prophesying war
Hot hot hot
The weeping stars are throwing down their spears
