Blue Oyster Cult - Eye Of The Hurricane Lyrics






Sometimes I let it take me like a greased and vertical sled
I know the trick won't break me, it's all dancing in my head

People think that they can change most people it ain't true
It's easy to talk about change, ain't easy followin' through

Once it starts, it has to finish, once it rolls, it's gonna crash
You know it finds its limit, today's heroes tomorrow's trash

He never blinks, he never blinks, he doesn't care what you think
Cause there's an eye in my hurricane
There's an eye in my hurricane
There's something calm watching in the center of me
Cause there's an eye to my hurricane

People fly around me like dead leaves in high wind
They stream down the choking streets and never quite reach the end

Sometimes I wear a blue buzzsaw, I wear it like mohawk steel
Sometimes I ride my fatal flaw blindfolded, do it by feel

He never blinks, he never blinks, he doesn't care what you think
Cause there's an eye in my hurricane
There's an eye in my hurricane
There's something calm watching in the center of me
Cause there's an eye to my hurricane

Sometimes I wear a blue buzzsaw, I wear it like mohawk steel
Sometimes I ride my fatal flaw blindfolded, do it by feel

He never blinks, he never blinks, he doesn't care what you think
Cause there's an eye in my hurricane
There's an eye in my hurricane
There's something calm watching in the center of me
Cause there's an eye to my hurricane
There's an eye to my hurricane
There's an eye to my hurricane
There's an eye to my hurricane

  3. G.... P....

    One more pearl, vivement 2020, nouvel album et concert en juin, culte

  4. B.... N....

    Kewl, glad you like this tune. I co-wrote this with Eric at my home studio years ago.
    John Shirley wrote the lyrics, Eric and I stumbled through a ruff cut. Don (Buck) and Bobbie Rondinelli polished it -then Eric nailed it on the vocals 🤘

    B.... N....

    One of my favorite tunes on this album!

    B.... N....

    Love this song man! Great job! I love this whole album. Some of BOC's best work is on this album.

  5. D.... M....

    Classic B O C rock on🍻

  6. M.... I....

    masterpiece

  7. B.... S....

    This is my favorite Blue Oyster Cult song.

    B.... S....

    I love it too, but nothing beats "Burnin' For You", nothing.

  8. C.... S....

    BOC should've went with an obscure record label and put more good albums out like this one and Heaven Forbid.Yes the classic's are what they will be remembered for,but this stuff was really good!

  9. r.... s....

    Yank and pull my chain*

    There's an eye to my hurricane
    There's an eye to my hurricane

    B. O. C. never dies

  11. A.... ....

    I have overseen this album but heck its not bad at all..its rather heavy and some nice cocky attitude in many songs
    "*spanks myself*"

  12. A.... P....

    Nothing but BBC here.

  13. T.... B....

    What a great song

  14. W.... ....

    An amazing album and, unfortunately, probably their last. Not blaming fans or blaming "the industry"....things change and theres really no one group to blame. technology does what it does and we go from there.

    W.... ....

    Wickedashtray Who knows, i wish they make one more album , that would be great

    W.... ....

    In an interview late 2017 Buck said "We'll probably make one last LP"...There should be one more album coming :-)

  15. P.... N....

    Eye of the Hurricane...what an imaginative title. Somebody bring me the head of John Shirley for cranking out a cliche'd mess like this and shame for Eric and Buck using it.

    P.... N....

    sip on more of that hateraid.

    P.... N....

    I agree. The lyrics for this one are super cringey and pretty much kill it dead for me. But John Shirley does have his moments. For instance the lyrics for Out of the Darkness (although it also has a pretty cliche title too) are quite beautiful and See You In Black might be the greatest metal lyric of all time.

    P.... N....

    I really am having trouble understanding what is wrong with this album. I think it's great and it's very BOC. I know they lost their record contract because of it and I don't get that either. Sure the title is a little cliche'd but...

  16. T.... ....

    Their heaviest song.

    T.... ....

    Not quite, I think See You In Black is heavier. It's even a little heavy for me lol

    T.... ....

    Listen to The Siege and Investiture of Baron von Frankenstein's castle at weseria. It's Heavy as fuck, the voice sound like Dio's

    T.... ....

    Good call on The Siege and Investiture of Baron von Frankenstein's castle at weseria... Monster song.

    T.... ....

    Also Hammer Back and Hot Rails To Hell

  17. R.... J....

    Even with the loss of the Boucherd brothers, B.O.C. still sounds the same as ever!

  18. z.... s....

    i have b. o. c. tattoo logo love every thing they did so far !

    z.... s....

    I want one!

    z.... s....

    Me too!! hahahahaha

  19. K.... R....

    The opening alone just hooked me the moment I heard it. Wow!

  20. d.... ....

    Reminiscent of "Perfect Strangers"-era Deep Purple.

    d.... ....

    With a touch of Judas Priest.

    d.... ....

    Judas Priest was my first thought.

  21. D.... D....

    DAT DRUMS!!! so awesome! :D

  22. J.... W....

     this is the song I enjoy most from this record.

  23. M.... S....

    M A S T E R P I E C E!!!!!!

  24. W.... G....

    always classy , it just seems that the boc will never EVER die !!! once again a superbly crafted song , these guys must be aliens dropped on the surface of the earth to teach us what godly music is all about !!!

    W.... G....

    Actually...they sing against those aliens.

  25. J.... C....

    because it's the only area out of all the turbulent wind, that is calm. In other words, it's "calm" because there's no wind moving in the "eye".

  26. K.... ....

    eminem is probably the only hip-hop artist you can name

  27. H.... ....

    So you slag off some who likes BOC ? People ARE allowed to listen to other stuff as well you know.

  28. m.... ....

    A bit harsh there, buddy.

  29. A.... K....

    No one cares.

    You're a disgrace.

  30. k.... ....

    I thought I knew BOC, but I've never heard this til now. It's freakin' amazing. How could I have gone this long without hearing it!?

  31. A.... H....

    that is some HEAVY bass many, I can never get sick of blue oyster cult, such an inspiration.

  32. a.... ....

    Timeless stuff!

  33. C.... ....

    Because the storm is circling around it.

  34. B.... ....

    Why Is the Eye of a Hurricane Calm?

  35. m.... ....

    keep on rockin young man.and tell dad hes got good taste in music..

  36. p.... ....

    Un morceau du BÖC que je ne connaissais pas. Il est puissant !

  37. T.... W....

    it grabs and envelops ... then, takes you on a journey

  38. A.... ....

    Great work Daddy! grats cookieboy

  39. S.... L....

    Great tune!!!!

  40. t.... ....

    @Cookieboy53888 emeb\nem s a rapper?

  41. J.... W....

    @TheMiggitymark lol I'm a radio DJ and I play stuff from both this and Heaven Forbid fairly often

  42. R.... K....

    @baredd79 They ARE a household name!!

  43. A.... S....

    @TheMiggitymark - I must say I enjoy pretty much all Blue Öyster Cult ever did (more or less obviously) but you are right. This albums is alot stronger than "Mirrors" (even dough I think Mirrors was a quite nice pop/rock album). Shame more people haven't heard this album !

  44. T.... ....

    This and Heaven Forbid are fantastic. Not overproduced like their poppier stuff from the mid - late 70s...they know they are not going to get on the radio and they just made 2 albums that fucking ROCKED.

  45. B.... I....

    One of their best songs from the recent era, IMHO.

  46. R.... T....

    This is why I never cease to love Eric Bloom songs I've always loved his melodies and his vocals. Great hop into 3/4 time :D True craftsman this man is at writing
    just what I want to hear!!!

  47. R.... P....

    Great Song!!!!!

  48. d.... ....

    This album is full of kickass.

  49. T.... ....

    love the chello song it is so powerful and i know its a keyboard

  50. V.... ....

    One of my favorite songs. Especially because of the melody
