Listen to the whistlin' wind across the moor
Feel the icy chill run down your spine
Was or wasn't that sound there before
Or is it all just in your mind?
Can you explain the footprints in the mud
Or do you still say it's a hoax?
Can you just ignore all that blood
Or do you think it's some kind of ghost
There's something evil in the air
There's something evil right out there
There's something that's gonna get to you
I'm telling you now, there's nothing you can do
Oh no
Listen to the pounding sound coming closer
Feel your heart racing with fear
What's that noise in the bush out there?
Is your timе coming near, now
Now there's a rustling bеhind you
The shock sends you sprawling on the ground
A shadowed form sees all that you do
Then everything starts spinning around
Around, around, around, around, around
Around, around, around, around, around, around

Medusa "Strangulation" (lyrics found)
* From album: "First Step Beyond"
(1975- recorded, 2013- released, USA)
(1975- recorded, 2013- released, USA)
Black spider on the wall of your mind
Evil fire burns inside your heart
The hatred for one who betrays you
And the sorcerer's magic tears you apart
Searching for the cure of this disease
No content are in this runaround
Hatred time in and time out
Nowhere is there life to be found
Black spider on the wall of your mind
Evil fire burns inside your heart
The hatred for one who betrays you
When the sorcerer's magic tеars you apart, now

Medusa "Black Wizard" (lyrics found)
* From album: "First Step Beyond"
(1975- recorded, 2013- released, USA)
(1975- recorded, 2013- released, USA)
I am the black wizard, some say I see all
Know all, am anywhere, no power's too small
My fortune is menace, my fame is well known
My story is told in the winds I have blown
A long time ago I was mortal like you
There wasn't a material thing that I didn't do
But then came the day I came upon great power
I found the best magic to darken your hour
My power is infinite, my kingdoms are sprawled
I am the black wizard, black wizard I'm called

Medusa "Frustration's Fool" (lyrics found)
* From album: "First Step Beyond"
(1975- recorded, 2013- released, USA)
(1975- recorded, 2013- released, USA)
Well, you love one woman, then you love another
But they all just treat you bad
Yeah, you love one way and then you run the other
But in the end your guitar is your best friend
Well, they borrow from tomorrow
And they say they live for today
But they really can't understand life
And they can't give love away
Call me "philosopher", call me "fool"
I see no book, I follow no rule
No matter where I go or what I do
Well, I'm gonna think of me
Before I do unto you
They never could understand what I was all about
Well, they didn't care long enough to find out, no
No matter what I tried or what I gave
Well, none gave me a love to save
Call me chauvinist, I don't care
The people in my past cannot deny
All I tried to do for them
I wound up alone, frustrated again
