Lyrics

Too many blowhards

Expressing disapproval of talkative, boastful people

Planted fears in buzzing heads

These blowhards have instilled fears in anxious minds

And too much power's been abused

Pointing out the misuse of excessive power

Too many crudities

Referring to an abundance of vulgarities or rudeness

Too much cupidity

Criticizing excessive greed or avarice

All self-promoters in the news

Highlighting self-promotion in the media


So 247 we've seen

Referencing a specific event (247) where humanity's downfall is televised

The end of mankind on tv

Describing the end of humanity depicted on television


The raven's back

The return of a symbolic raven, a harbinger of doom or change

Back in the game

Back in action

A little fierce but still the same

The raven remains intense, yet retains its core identity

Too long in the dark of my room

Feeling isolated and confined in a dark room for too long

The raven's back

(Refrain)

Back on the road

The raven is on the move again

To reap the yield of what I sowed

To harvest the consequences of past actions

So join me

Inviting others to join in a chorus of impending doom

A choral of doom

(Refrain)

The raven's back

Reiterating the return of the ominous raven


Hey now deceivers

Addressing deceivers with their absurd schemes

Your stitch-up is so absurd

Mocking the ridiculousness of their manipulative efforts

Failures with condescending tone

Failures presented with a condescending attitude

Your wretched attempt

Labeling an attempt as wretched to create division

To divide my entourage and me

Resistance against attempts to separate from allies

Won't work until the cows come home

Asserting that these efforts will fail


So 247 we've seen

Referring again to the catastrophic event on television (247)

This tragic miscast on the screen

Describing the tragic misrepresentation on the screen


The raven's back

Reaffirming the return of the raven, now in the game

Back in the game

Back in action, retaining fierceness and identity

A little fierce but still the same

(Refrain)

Too long in the dark of my room

Repeating the feeling of being in the dark for too long

The raven's back

(Refrain)

Back on the road

Reiterating the raven's return, now back on the road

To reap the yield of what I sowed

Harvesting the consequences of past actions on the journey

So join me

Inviting others to join in the impending choral of doom

A choral of doom

(Refrain)

The raven's back

Final repetition of the return of the raven and the impending doom
