Face of the Screaming Werewolf

by The Fleshtones

supported by

billstandard Garage rock icons The Fleshtones are still wailing their midnight shrieks at the moon thru a fuzz box of course. This band is best seen live to appreciate their incomparable magic. Favorite track: Face of the Screaming Werewolf.

Daniel Anklin Fleshtones you sent me the album instead of the CD which I ordered.
I am going to get the CD instead?
I will send the LP back to you!

I drive my girl, a lonely spot All alone but this girl was kinda moody I want love, my blood's hot When I try to kiss she hides her face inside her hoodie The light was low, the time was right I saw the full moon glowing in the night If I'm gonna make my move then this is it When she turned to me to kiss her lips It was the face of the screaming werewolf Fill my heart with terror and fright It was the face of the screaming werewolf Screaming at me all through the night So I ran really far Left her there all alone inside my car I had to hide, find someplace To find a way to forget that dreadful face I thought I was safe inside my home Now I was finally all alone I looked in the mirror, what did I find? The face that I saw there wasn't mine! It was the face of the screaming werewolf Fill my heart with terror and fright It was the face of the screaming werewolf Screaming at me all through the night It was the face of the screaming werewolf It was the face of the screaming werewolf

I wanna know why, why, why that night The sixties were over, malaise swept the nation I was looking for fun but got alienation My boss Ron said, "We got work to do" "We're going to Forest Hills because I booked The Who" I wanna know why, why, why that night They were spilling blood I wanna know why, why, why that night They were spilling blood at the rock and roll show Then Ron said, "Boys you all come on the double” “There's violence in the air and there's gonna be trouble” One of our crew got stabbed and there was a fight His life bled away in the dirt and that wasn't right I wanna know why, why, why that night They were spilling blood I wanna know why, why, why that night They were spilling blood at the rock and roll show And there was violence and there were colored lights As the music echoed dead into the night Love was out of reach as the stage was tall I realized I didn’t like arena rock after all And high on the stage like they didn't know a thing The Who went through the motions to play and sing I wanna know why, why, why that night They were spilling blood at the rock and roll show I wanna know why, why, why that night They were spilling blood at the rock and roll show Why, why, why that night They were spilling blood at the rock and roll show I wanna know why, why, why, why, why Why, why, why, why, why Why, why, why, why, why I wanna know why

The wind blows rain into my face The sun glows at the end of the highway Child of the moon, rub your rainy eyes Oh, child of the moon Give me a wide-awake crescent-shaped smile She shivers, by the light she is hidden She flickers like a lamp lady vision Child of the moon, rub your rainy eyes Child of the moon Give me a wide-awake crescent-shaped smile The first car down the foggy road riding The last star for my lady is pining Oh, child of the moon, bid the sun arise Oh, child of the moon Give me a misty day, pearly gray, silver, silky faced Wide-awake crescent-shaped smile

10.	The Show Is Over 02:34	lyrics	buy track
I was a guest at a sad event It was hit and run, a tragic accident A crowd gathered around to stop and gawk awhile Was it you that I saw there? Staring at the mangled body of what we used to share Did you ever care or did I see you smile? Well I had my doubts about you anyway But as the New York cops all like to say Move along, move along, move along, move along, move along The show is over Your sympathy's not in line, in fact I'm fit and feeling fine You owe nothing to me, and no apologies You’d hope that I'd feel bad, but move along 'cause you got it wrong ‘Cause I'm not sad, and this ain't no sad song Well it's true I'm just some poor old working slob We've both do our jobs, you're a professional snob Move along, move along, move along, move along, move along The show is over Move along, move along, move along, move along, move along Go home I thought that we were friends, but everything in this world ends When somethings lost, you're never getting back So as the crowd starts going home, you're left there standing all alone As F. Scott said, there'll be no second act Well I had my doubts about you anyway But as the New York cops all like to say Move along, move along, move along, move along, move along The show is over Move along, move along, move along, move along, move along Go home, go home, go home, go home

about

Legendary garage rockers The Fleshtones have been pumping out hits for over four decades, earning them the honor of being "America's Garage Rock Band." They’re one of the final remaining original CBGB bands, they’ve played on Andy Warhol’s short-lived MTV show while Sir Ian McKellen read Shakespeare over their jamming, and were the last band to publicly perform at the World Trade Center’s Windows on the World. However, what’s most incredible about The Fleshtones is that they’re putting out some of their best music yet forty years into their career, as evidenced by their new album Face of the Screaming Werewolf. Featuring soon-to-be-hits done in the inimitable Fleshtones style, such as "Alex Trebek," "Spilling Blood (at the Rock & Roll Show)," and their cover of the Stones' classic "Child of the Moon."
