Shallow Grooves

Oh, long-gone sailor, your troubled love
Fell off the radar near some sacred ground
Oh, lighthouse keeper, the lonely son
Luring the curious far away from town
Oh, fortune teller, you're frowned upon
But kept a secret file on everyone

I've heard the call so it all too late
The writing on the wall sadly accurate
My shallow grooves and overloaded acetate

Cold-blooded siblings plant evil seeds
Black and white portraits crowd the stained-way lid
Casual disasters yet to bleed
Some former guide appearing on the screen
Abated with the old man's will
Sharks and lawyer sips waiting for the kill
There is no cause for celebration, I admit

We heard the call so it all too late
The writing on the wall sadly accurate
My foes would order to my wake
About a mammoth numb they're pretty hard to shake
My shallow grooves and overloaded acetate
