Fu Manchu - Mongoose Lyrics






Look inside...the day started right
A back road in a dirt town lives...all time
Slowly turns...signals high...what happens next
All time

The mongoose flies

Removed from the times
Event for the eyes
Mid day they gathered one by one
All time

The story lies behind...the mongoose flies on by
Out on the street they ride...the mongoose flies on by

    Look inside, day started right
    A back road in a dirt town lives all time
    The mongoose flies
    The mongoose flies
    The mongoose flies
    The mongoose flies
    Removed from the times
    Event for the eyes
    Mid day they gathered one by one
    All time
    The story lies behind
    The mongoose flies on by
    Out on the street they ride
    The mongoose flies on by
    Slowly turns signals high
    What happens next, all time
    The story lies behind
    The mongoose flies on by
    Out on the street they ride
    The mongoose flies on by
    The story lies behind
    The mongoose flies on by
    Out on the street they ride
    Look inside,…

    @deathclot666 agreed.

    d.... ....

    +deathclot666 nah man this version is waaaaay better than the eatin' dust version.

    d.... ....

    neither are bad...its Fu Manchu! most music sux ass today. Both have heavy far out qualities. It's Fu Manchu!:)

    d.... ....

    the bass has so much power in the first version

    d.... ....

    I disagree, this version is way better

  42. A.... ....

    this song is so fucking gooood! urgh! was unbelievable live as well.

  43. M.... S....

    awesome.

  44. A.... R....

    ахуенно

  45. A.... ....

    My fave FU song ❤️

  46. d.... ....

    is this about the bikes?

    d.... ....

    The song is supposedly about Tom McEwen (a drag racer) who was nicknamed Mongoose.

    d.... ....

    +PlexVision - well they do songs about oldskool bmx bikes too.

  47. S.... ....

    HIT THAT COW BELL HARD!

    S.... ....

    MORE COWBELL

    S.... ....

    i gotta a fever and can only be cured with that cowbell!!!

  48. P.... S....

    Contemporarymonk, thank you for the excellent Upload.

  49. w.... ....

    Never forget 4/20

    w.... ....

    Absolutely LOVE this song!

  50. L.... ....

    Thats the most stupid thing I have ever heard. 480p on YouTube uses 128 kbps AAC. Spotify uses ~160 kbps Ogg Vorbis for Desktop and web player, so the quality on Spotify is better.

    However, the version of Mongoose on California Crossing (This on YouTube) is a new version compared to the one on Eatin' Dust (Spotify version).

  51. J.... S....

    This album version is really soft compared to the first release. Album Eatin' Dust

  52. F.... S....

    I second that notion: more cowbell.

  53. S.... C....

    I could use a little more cowbell...

  54. H.... N....

    Again, because of Fu Mancho rescued and reset an old BMX, the Mongoose Flyer!! ...........

  55. S.... ....

    Even if it's a Flac, youtube will convert it in 192kbps file for 480p quality and more. And for 360p quality it's in 128kbps.

  56. B.... R....

    @contemporarymonk, do you seriously think youtube kept your FLAC in this video?
    @Ndriana, did you listen to the spotify premium version? I challenge you to find any audible difference between well-ripped 320kbs mp3 and FLAC/WAV/AIFF

  57. A.... D....

    "Get a new conditioner, your ends are totally split."

  58. c.... ....

    this one is lost and found and the best copy currently available on youtube ..

    cheers to the other mad monk of music

  59. K.... B....

    Because there are two different recordings of the same song. One on Callifornia Crossing one on Godzill's/Eating Dust.

  60. S.... ....

    you've been so selfeish!:D

  61. D.... ....

    There's also a version of the California Crossings demo's LP

  62. D.... ....

    There are a couple of versions of this song

  63. g.... ....

    This version is the California crossing version and it blows compared to the Godzillas Eatin dust version i think anyways - i don't have spotify so don't know what version they have up but if it's from Godzillas then they're doing somethin right ;)

    g.... ....

    I disagree. After listening to both I would say this one, because it is more acoustic, adds a lot more layers of sound. Much more interesting. However, I really think its just subjective preference.

  64. C.... ....

    The Spotify version is on Godzilla's/Eatin' Dust and was a different recording.

  65. S.... ....

    I find this song fapable more than most of the porns out there.

  66. R.... ....

    Channeling Ted Nugent and that ain't a bad thing.

  67. C.... A....

    i wanna stand up in the back of an el camino with my ding dong flappin in the wind and a nice breeze on thy buttocks

  68. D.... D....

    Album cover looks like Hole in the Fence Beach, Dana Point, CA.

  69. S.... G....

    I have known about them for years. They kick ass!! Going to see them perfrom the Action Is Go! in its entireity here in a couple months!

  70. b.... ....

    yo dude just so you know, just because it has 100,000 views doesn't mean a lot of people have heard of fu manchu. most of those views are from me and like maybe 6 other people. sorry.

  71. c.... ....

    It's not due to the version of the file, but the version of the song, the one on spotify wasnt recorded for California crossing

  72. W.... ....

    I believe he's trying to say the mongoose does the action of flying.

  73. B.... ....

    A mongoose that flys.

  74. C.... L....

    whats a mongoose fly?like a horse fly?

  75. R.... ....

    Nothing would please me more, wish I was 21 to see them though lol. fuckin detroit bar!

  76. e.... ....

    Well thanks, I guess...

  77. M.... ....

  78. T.... J....

    this is an alternative recording of the song, its not the format

  79. D.... S....

    The origins can be traced further to freely roaming bells.

  80. c.... ....

    Probably because Spotify has Mp3 version of the file. Which means that the highs and lows are lost, and in general the quality of the music is poo in my opinion.

    I had the LP's for the Fu, but this one here is off the CD in FLAC format, meaning that the quality is not lost during the rip.

    Its important to listen to good tunes with good quality to really appreciate what they are all about.

    c.... ....

    Like x1000

    c.... ....

    Amen, brother.

  81. N.... ....

    Why the F is the Spotify version slightly different? it lacks that special rough something this album version does...

  82. I.... ....

    oh yes, more FU!

  83. m.... ....

    While the cowbell is commonly found in musical contexts, its origin can be traced to freely roaming animals.

  84. B.... W....

    "fifty on the mexican"

    B.... W....

    Gracias

  85. W.... ....

    De puta madre

  86. D.... R....

  87. W.... ....

    Tremenda!!

  88. B.... H....

    Make me a little Fu Manchu !!! =))

  89. A.... M....

    Damn! I just love Biketober in Daytona! This music is just right! Fu***n´ love Fu Manchu!!

  90. A.... V....

    I was not disappointed.

  91. N.... ....

    I have a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell!!!!!!

  92. u.... ....

    reminds me of ace frehley's rocket ride a lil

  93. j.... ....

    Sweet. Fu Manchu: the '70's as they never were...

  94. N.... ....
