| Skyclad is a British heavy metal band with strong folk influences in their music. They were formed by former Sabbat vocalist Martin Walkyier, and Satan / Blind Fury / Pariah guitarist Steve Ramsey in 1990 to represent the “ultimate pagan metal band”. From the start, they have incorporated a diverse range of influences from British folk music to German thrash metal which has fed their constantly evolving sound. They are widely considered the inventors of folk metal. The lineup remained stable for the recording of 2000’s Folkémon, but founding member Walkyier left the band in 2001, citing various reasons, such as financial difficulties or the bands unwillingness to tour in South America owing to security concer... more... | |||||||

Deja-vu Ain't What It Used To Be lyrics |

Have you heard the one 'bout when a most unlucky fella, Went visiting a fair-ground for to see a fortune-teller? She said; 'Of all the palms I've read - yours is by far the worst. I'm duty-bound to tell you, you've been well-and-truly cursed.' Ill-fated was my selfless quest. Blind-faith a grave mistake. I'd strived to do my very best, to serve a dream quite fake. Just one more hapless sacrifice, spilt tears in full-flood. Ingenuous I've paid their price. Not all vampires suck blood! [Chorus:] Gazed into a crystal-ball and watched its surface crack. When I cut the Tarot deck; Death lay there grinning back. I've been here many times before; again the joke's on me. I know the score, but Deja-Vu ain't what it used to be. *O well for him that lives at ease With garnered gold in wide domain, Nor heeds the splashing of the rain, The crashing down of forest trees. *O well for him who ne'er hath known The travail of the hungry years, A father grey with grief and tears, A mother weeping all alone. To tread an unshared path alone, was my lot from the start. So seldom fleeting solace known, by this rent, careworn heart. Watch the stand-up tragedy; famous for fifteen minutes. I glimpsed my future and decree, saw dearth of purpose in it. [Chorus:] Gazed into a crystal-ball and watched its surface crack. When I cut the Tarot deck; Death lay there grinning back. I've been here many times before; again the joke's on me. I know the score, but Deja-Vu ain't what it used to be. *But well for him whose foot hath trod The weary road of toil and strife, Yet from the sorrows of his life Builds ladders to be nearer God. [* - Taken from the verse 'Cry woe, woe and let the good prevail.' By Oscar Wilde] |
