KONGOS - Lord of the Flies (Official Lyric Video)

songwhip.com/kongos/lord-of-t...
by Jesse Kongos
You know, he's a dark motherfucker
Black magic
And she's a cunning little looker
She'll backstab ya
And the one in the middle gotta choose a side
Or we'll never move an inch, let alone a mile
It's a world on the verge
Its madness
Like an electrical surge
Full of badness
And if the sun and moon keep shining their light
Then before too soon might will take its right
Will the aliens please reveal themselves
Before this species goes and offs itself
‘Cause it's lord of the flies out here
It’s lord of the flies out here
Will the aliens please reveal themselves
Before this species goes and offs itself
‘Cause it's lord of the flies out here
It’s lord of the flies out here
Out here
You know
You know
You know
You know, it's funny how it starts as laughter
And turns to sadness
You meet a girl eaten up by disaster
Full of gladness
And so it comes in a flash, takes ahold of your chest
It’s like whiplash, such a sudden arrest
It's better than money
When possessed
You can keep your milk and honey
It’s too late to confess
And when you crack door just to sneak a peak
The terror of it all makes a flood of a leak
Will the aliens please reveal themselves
Before this species goes and offs itself
‘Cause it's lord of the flies out here
It’s lord of the flies out here
Will the aliens please reveal themselves
Before this species goes and offs itself
‘Cause it's lord of the flies out here
It’s lord of the flies out here
It’s lord of the flies out here
Out here
You know
You know
You know
You know
You know
You know
You know
You know

Kongos blew my socks off with Lunatic, and now they went and did it again. Haunting. Got me thinking of the book Rejoice - A knife to the heart.

Thanks so much!

[@balaji-kartha]

this same song could have been made so much darker - you know with a rougher voice and a heavier base I am sure someone else will make that cover on some music show (like the Voice) but I am happy with the Kongos (original) version

[@susanm7925]

Not very entertaining, I mean I'm trying to escape from this mess.

[@janosbrutyo2835]

Nah, it's pretty good, once you know how to tap into it. "I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain." Litany against fear from Frank Herbert's Dune Just listening to this song can give solace, that you are not alone, and never will be. Many of us feel the same dread creeping in the shadows and makes us scream in silence. And armed with that knowledge, it's easier to face it, instead of being paralyzed like the deer in the headlights, the realization of the total uselessness of flight makes us move with the only option: FIGHT! So hold up the flag 'cuz it's ride or die! To me this song is like a breathing exercise. Once the mess becomes too much, you face it, see it as is, concentrate all your shackles into one moment and let it go and thus be able to act free from it's nagging for a while. We survived the fall of Rome, the black plague, the world wars, we can stand the current storm as well.

[@BenjaBagod17]

Straight up drugs. How about let's take some personal responsibility for ourselves and quit waiting for someone "better" to save us.

[@davidisraelleon9875]

charros este disco no me ha gustado nada, les falta el ritmo que los caracterizaba, ahora parece música de elevador

[@ForumArcade]

Eh. Not my favorite from you guys. The sound is okay, but I was nonplussed with the lyrics; they felt a bit clunkier than usual. Lost some of the easy flow from songs like "I Don't Mind". But that's me; I still wish you guys success and I hope this song finds its audience.

[@TheNateness123]

I mean arguably that's the point, this song uses some 'unsettling' and slightly off strings/tones/keys/beats, they tend to think their songs through so I figure that's intentional, one of the good things about this band is the variety of moods and sounds they can produce from song to song, album to album. As an example When was the last time they made a song like I'm only joking? 🤔
