Incredible Hog (1973, UK) 10 songs
Incredible Hog "Lame" (lyrics found)
* From album: "Volume 1"
Well, I now bless my soul
I look I like time for me to go
I make things they seem so strange
So many changes are drivin' me lame
[Driving me lame] 3x
I crossed the road to reach a telephone
So many people, but I'm all alone
Sometimes, you know that I feel so sad
So many changes and they're drivin' me mad
Drivin' me mad
They drivin' me mad
Drivin' me mad
Maybe someday we're gonna build a road
Where people die, yes, before they grow old
Until then, I'm gonna hide in my room
I'll seal the doors, yes, and wait for my doom
[Driving me lame] 3x

Incredible Hog "Wreck My Soul" (lyrics found)
* From album: "Volume 1"
The days drift slowly by
Yes they do
And I no longer cry
No more
Yet truth is hard to please
Oh, you know she wrecked my soul
You know she wrecked my soul
You know I know, I know
[I do] 5x
You know she wrecked my soul
You know I know, I know
[I do] 3x

Incredible Hog "Execution" (lyrics found)
* From album: "Volume 1"
Let the people have their say
Oh, let them find another way
And when they think they've found their strength
Then they'll know just what I meant
And when death has had its day
While the angels shy away
Let the rains come pouring down
The post-war tears of a tortured clown
Let the people have their way
Let them see what they have done
And when truth has had its day
May the jaws of hell burn everyone
And when death has had its day
Oh, while the angels shy away
Let the rains come pouring down
The post-war tears of a tortured clown

Incredible Hog "Tadpole" (lyrics found)
* From album: "Volume 1"
I'm stuck in a hollow, a hollow of darkness
You gotta release me, I can't even breathe
'Cause now that I've found you, I don't wanna lose you
I'm sure gonna miss you in every way
Your poisonous cobwebs restricting my life-force
My eyeballs are bulging, till life is done out
I'm blinded by tempest, the wind and the thunder
You're evil, the power is screwing me down
I'm fallin' down, I'm fallin' down
I'm fallin' down, oh I'm fallin' down
I'm sliding down, oh I'm sliding down
Oh I'm sliding down
I've slipped down the walls of a slippery cavern
I'm trapped by some power I can't comprehend
If you think you can keep me in incarceration
I'll live for your downfall and fight it again
---------------------------------------------
Incredible Hog "Another Time" (lyrics found)
* From album: "Volume 1"
I said, please help me find
Another place, another time
I spent so long tryin' to please
People, I'm crawlin' on my knees
People try to tease me
With drugs they try to dope me
With words they try to hide me
And children, they despise me
But no one here can find me
My life is all behind me
And now I've found the time
Has come to end my life
Lord, I'm walkin'
Through the fire
The flames get high
Burnin' through my body
Oh, burnin' up my face
I'm sure gonna miss ya
But never miss the pain
---------------------------------------------
Incredible Hog "Warning" (lyrics found)
* From album: "Volume 1"
I said, Early in the mornin'
I'm gonna rise without warnin'
I'm gonna leave on the next train
'Cause babe, never be the same
[Bye bye bye] 7x
I said, Oh, how I love her so
I said, Oh, I can't let you go
She said, No, never be the same
I said, Oh, I'm the one to blame
[Bye bye bye] 7x
I said, Early in the mornin'
I'm gonna rise without warnin'
I'm gonna leave on the next train
'Cause babe, never be the same
[Bye bye bye] 7x

Incredible Hog "To The Sea" (lyrics found)
* From album: "Volume 1"
To the sea, where you can't catch me
Do you know where I lie, where you know I die?
And to that sea, try to follow me
Heard the sirens call, runnin' through my doll
For those who run, the time has come
Can't hope to be what's carried on
And those who run, well let the dark ones come
We'll all believe in history
Can't catch me
Well, you can't see me
Well, you can't catch me
Well, you won't find me
To the sea (Far away), where you can't catch me (Over the sea)
Do you know where I lie (Far away) where you know I die? (Over the sea)
And to that sea (Far away), try to follow me (Over the sea)
Heard the sirens call (Far away), runnin' through my doll (Over the sea)
Well, you can't catch me
Well, you can't see me
Well, you can't catch me
Well, you won't find me
[Well, you can't catch me] 4x

Incredible Hog "Walk The Road" (lyrics found)
* From album: "Volume 1"
And what you see your eyes will never breathe
What you did, oh, what you did to me
I can't forget, my heart will never free
And when you walk the roads
Your days, they will grow old
And when you see the sky
[You'll start to wonder why] 4x
You'll start to wonder
Why
Why
What you'd said, oh, what you said to me
I can't forget, my ears will never free
And what we did, a night of mystery
A babe was born; our life, misery
And when you walk the roads
Your days, they will grow old
And when you see the sky
[You'll start to wonder why] 8x
You'll start to wonder
Why

Incredible Hog "Losing Myself" (lyrics found)
* From album: "Volume 1"
Listen, I wanna be there
I said listen, I'm gonna be there
I said
[Please don’t] 3x
[Mock and stare] 5x
’Cause I can't take no more
I'm just passin' the time
I'm just movin' in line
I'm just losin' myself
I said listen, I’m gonna be there
I say listen, I wanna be there
I said
[Please don’t] 3x
[Mock and stare] 5x
'Cause I'm losin' myself
I’m just sinkin' in time
Please throw me a line
'Cause I can't take no more
[I'm just losing myself] 4x

Incredible Hog "There's A Man" (lyrics found)
* From album: "Volume 1"
There's a man and he's following me
I wish he'd run and set me free
Ten long years I've been on the run
After me, and he's got a gun
[Following me] 6x
Follow, follow
He's after me to shed my blood
For the things I did at the flood
A girl I met a long time ago
I tore her apart, but why, I don't know
[Following me] 4x
He's after me
He’s following me
Follow, follow
Her blood, it poured from her veins
Down the street and that flooded the drains
I don't know, but I meant no harm
All I did was to show her charm, charm, charm
[Following me] 6x
Follow, follow
"This one has caused some controversy and it certainly does not condone rape. It is not a literal lyric; the ‘Man’ is a symbol of sexual guilt. (...) I was very distressed when I innocently read a graphic account of the infamous ‘Moors’ murders carried out by Ian Brady and Myra Hindley in Yorkshire in the 1960’s. I was sexually naive at the time and I was deeply shocked that human beings could behave in this way. I also survived a similar life threatening attack when I was 11 years old. I think the song was an attempt to understand amorality and the mind of a real psychopath (...)"
