The Book Of Luana
Lyrics by Falcone
(i) Luana Doom!
Luana, Luana, doom!
Luana, Luana, doom!
Luana, Luana, doom!
Luana, Luana, doom . . .
(ii) Luana The Duchess
Duchess of hard
And all of her dukes
Frame by frame, she’s still
Living in the song
Duchess of hard
And all of her dukes
Snapshot within our History Web
She’s left for dead on the Editor’s Block
Her real life forever locked
So, so many lost tick tocks
Time to roll, get ready to go
To the next chapter, but not alone
Get ready for . . . amazing sounds
Galaxina, Doom Fighter
Fantasy abounds
Amazing sounds
To the next chapter now
But not alone
Galaxina, Doom Fighter
Fantasy abounds
(iii) A Preacher For Luana
There’s a man with a gun
And he fires lots of word
Is he good or is he bad
What does he want with us
Reading and writing is what he learned
How will he use it
Reading and writing is what he learned
Now he will use it
Sights a girl as evil
Because she wears denim tight
Is he laughing with us
Why does he laugh at all
Reading and writing is what he learned
How will he use it
Reading and writing is what he’s learned
Now he will use it (to show the world his way)
You can call him the preacher
You can judge him as he judges us
He’s a willing servant to a god
He believes in and trusts
We can call him the preacher
We can judge him as he judges us
He’s a willing servant to a god
Who believes in and trusts
Has a home in the sky
Held by string, held by hope
Wrapped around the crowd below
Keep them in good ‘n’ tight
Reading and writing is what he learned . . .
Sights a good as evil
Says she swears every night
And a boy just as bad
Says he falls right behind
Reading and writing is what he learned . . .
You can call him the preacher
You can judge him as he judges us
He’s a willing servant to a god
He believes in and trusts
We can call him the preacher
We can judge him as he judges us
He’s a willing servant to a god
Who believes in and trusts
There’s our girl with no clothes
And she fires lots of word
Is she good or she bad
What does she want with us
Reading and writing is what we’ve learned . . .
iv. Luana The Host (& the Carnival
for the Defense)
Luana, Luana, doom . . .
It’s our carnival of time
Our carnival of space
We take it on the road
To see what we can show
It’s not about — art
Or note-ability
We just want to leave a mark
On society
You can be god, you can be a man
and I will be the host
You can be the players, you can be the audience
and I will be the host
It’s our carnival of time
Our carnival of space
We take it to the road
To see what we can show
It’s not about — art
Or note-ability
We just want to leave a mark
(It’s our carnival of time
Our carnival of space)
You can be god, you can be a man
and I will be the host
You can be the start, you can be the end
And I will be the host
Luana, Luana, spirit here and now . . .
spirit here and now . . .
