Bambooba Killing Ground
An epic eighties rock opera with arena drums, blazing guitar solos, analog synths, bass guitar, and operatic vocals. In Bambooba Land, Psychobob turns the wicked into prey while lawmen cower and leave justice undone.
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Cracked crown on a rusted throne
Sandstorm crawling through the fairground bones
Neon cross on a leaning bar
Judge drinks fire while he hums to the stars
Sheriff's badge in a blood-red glass
Boots turned back as the shadows pass
Every oath they swore
They sold
Every saint in chains
Every sinner turns gold
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the dogs of doubt
How they bark then run
Every loaded gun on the wrong side
Son
In the dust
Something laughs like a broken command
They whisper one name through Bambooba Land
[Chorus]
Psychobob
Psychobob
Turns the wicked into prey when the brave back off
When the lawmen hide and the cowards stand
You can hear that roaring name through Bambooba Land
Psychobob
Psychobob (hey!)
If you draw first blood
He will draw the last
When the judges choke on their trembling hands
He rides the edge of rage through Bambooba Land
[Verse 2]
Dead-end alleys dressed up as courts
Silk-tied liars writing murder as sport
Holy books used to level the scales
Now they plug the leaks in a sinking jail
Little kid chalking halos on stone
Mama lights a match just to feel less alone
Every cry for help
Filed away
Stamped and shelved till the bones decay
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the sirens sing
Then the sound cuts short
Every mask they wear
Every rigged report
In the dark
Heavy footsteps shake the sand
They tremble at the name in Bambooba Land
[Chorus]
Psychobob
Psychobob
Turns the wicked into prey when the brave back off
When the lawmen hide and the cowards stand
You can hear that roaring name through Bambooba Land
Psychobob
Psychobob (woah)
If you sell your soul
He will buy it back
On a blazing debt you can’t withstand
He carves the truth in steel through Bambooba Land
[Bridge]
[Drums drop to toms
Chanted choir]
Who hunts the hunter?
Who haunts the judge?
Who drags the butcher
Through his own sludge?
When the scales tip
Tip
Tip
When the last good man slips
He comes laughing like a curse
Like a final
Blazing verse (oh!)
[Chorus]
Psychobob
Psychobob
Turns the wicked into prey when the brave back off
When the lawmen hide and the cowards stand
You can hear that roaring name through Bambooba Land
Psychobob
Psychobob (hey!)
If you stain the ground
He will paint it clean
With the fear you forged by your own damned hand
He is the law you dread in Bambooba Land
[Outro]
[Extended guitar solo over rising synth choir]
Psychobob
Psychobob
Bambooba Land
Bambooba Land
