The Oil Baron
Rumbling Echoes: The Resurgence of The Oil Barons in a Town of Change
Lyrics
This town is tapped
This town is depleted or exhausted.
Tear it down, boys
Dismantle or destroy it, referring to the town.
The West is won
The western region has been conquered or won.
Pour another round, boys
Celebrate the victory with another drink.
And keep your eye to the ground, boy
Stay vigilant and observant.
The Barons are back, Jack
The Oil Barons have returned, addressing someone named Jack.
Back in town, boy
They are back in town.
And mind your manners when I come around
Be respectful when I am present.
And turn the picture of your daughter down
Hide or remove images of your daughter when I'm around.
You’ll feel the rumble, the rattle and shake
Experience the impact and disturbance when I create my distinctive noise.
When I make my awful sound
Remain alert and attentive.
Keep an ear to the ground
Be aware of your surroundings.
The Earth bleeds from an old vein
The Earth is suffering from exploitation or extraction, represented as an old vein.
I got my finger on the pulse
I am closely monitoring the situation or conditions.
There’s no beauty like an black stain
Nothing is as captivating as a dark mark or stain.
(The land is lousy with the stuff)
The land is abundant with undesirable elements.
I bleed her with my sick machine
Exploiting the Earth using a destructive machine.
I’ll bleed a bitch dry
Exploiting resources to the fullest.
Black metal with a purple sheen
Dark and intense music with a mysterious quality.
Make your momma cry
Causing emotional distress to someone's mother.
