Talby Lyrics

They came from so far away
( cellars of Norway )
where children play in viking bands.
( sun won't shine all day )

No one seemed to notice that they came that distance.
They just stood outside and smoked and talked their business

Play that song again and go to hell when you die.
Wave goodbye at you as you tune your guitars.

Play that song again and go to hell when you die. ( didn't we? )
Wave goodbye at you as you tune your guitars. ( wave goodbye...... )

And they played and you watched and you yelled at the drummer
as he poured on the flames and you passed out on key.

Play that song again and go to hell when you die. ( didn't we? )
Wave goodbye at you as you tune your guitars. ( wave goodbye...... )

Play that song again and go to hell when you die. ( didn't we? )
Wave goodbye at you as you tune your guitars. ( wave goodbye...... )

Gettin' that band outta my sight.
Gettin' that band outta my sight.

And they played and you watched till the end of the summer
When they boarded their planes and you walked out
Fell the floor
Soaked up and sweating
Fell the floor
And I'm forever empty.....

I think (after some guy told the he thought :P) that this song is about his love for a norwegian heavy metall band when he was a kid

Cover art for Talby lyrics by Pinback

In concert Rob Crow said it was about when himself and their drummer went to see their favorite black metal band Mayhem and the song is about that evening

@opp.overlord don't doubt you for a second, but does that footage exist on youtube?

Dark Star...fantastic 70's scifi. Talby, Sgt Pinback, talking bombs, and a beach ball alien....doesn't get any better my friends.

the song is called talby who is one of the characters from darkstar and he jst sits in the observatory room of the space ship hoping to see the pheonix commet so this song has nothing to do with that character so i think its just a deeper meaning for mr crow
