Clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst Out at you from their hiding place Like gasoline and oil on a madman's face Reason tends to fly away Like lesser birds on the four winds Like silver scraps in May Now the sands become a crust And most of you have gone away Gone Away Come Susie dear, let's take a walk Just out there upon the beach I know you'll soon be married And you'll want to know where wind comes from Well it's never said at all On the map that Carrie reads Behind the clock back there you know At the Four Winds Bar Hey Hey Hey Hey Four doors at the Four Winds Bar Two doors locked and windows barred One door's let to take you in The other one just mirrors it Hey Hey Hey Hey In hellish glare and inference The other one's a duplicate The Queenly flux, eternal light Or the light that never warms Yes a light that never, never warms Yes a light that never, never warms Never warms, never warms The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst Out at you from their hiding place Miss Carrie Nurse and Susie dear Find themselves at Four Winds Bar It's the nexus of the crisis And the origin of storms Just the place to hopelessly Encounter time and then came me Hey Hey Hey Hey Call me Desdinova Eternal light These gravely digs of mine Will surely prove a sight And don't forget my dog Fixed and consequent Astronomy - a star Astronomy - a star Astronomy - a star Astronomy - a star

I first heard Blue Oyster Cult just after the Release of "Garage Inc"album. The Metallica version of Astronomy kick ass, so I thought I should check out the band that Metallica chose to cover one of their song(I had never heard of the band BOC aka Blue Oyster Cult). Indeed,I think "Astronomy" is the BEST song off that album(You know its true!) and could not stop listening to it,I would just put it on repeat.I then started to find BOC'S album with Astronomy on it ,and found out there was some other great songs as well,I really like the Live version of astronomy that boc does,there's about a 5min jam in the middle thats just Bad Ass,WOW!Now Im a HUGE BOC FAN!!The funny thing is, now Ive been a fan for the last 8 years and have seen them(BOC) 7 times and not once have they played "Astronomy", Bastards!!
