Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The Indian way, this is my truth
I found myself, I confess to you
The bells are ringing, the ripper is back
Jokers and Nazis, can't you feel what's going down
[Verse 2]
You just can't explain it can you
It's Father Lucifer
[Verse 3]
Sister of mine, shut down twisted and bitter
She loved to play with lives
We buried her that way
The big blue is rising, I'm embracing my horizons
Don't blow your brains out
Make peace with your loved ones
[Verse 4]
You just can't explain it can you
It's Father Lucifer
[Verse 5]
My Jezebel, a perfect creation
My beautiful bride, a master of disguise
Titanic sails today as we board this London train
Made heroes of the Krays, John Merrick on show again
[Verse 6]
You just can't explain it can you
It's Father Lucifer
You just can't explain it can you
It's Father Lucifer
