The Green Manalishi (With the Two-Pronged Crown) Lyrics

Now when the day goes to sleep and the full moon looks
And the night is so black that the darkness cooks
And you come creeping around
Making me feel things I don't wanna do

Can't believe that you need my love so bad
Come sneaking around trying to drive me mad
Busting in all my dreams
Making me see things I don't wanna see

'Cause you're the green Manalishi with the two-pronged crown
All my trying is up, all you're bringing is down
Just takin' my love and slip away
Leaving me here trying to keep from following you

as was previously said, the song was originally done by Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac. Green based the song off a dream he had in which he was spoke with a green dog that supposedly represented money. so the Green Manalishi is money... and the two-pronged crown is supposed to represent the devil.

the mac version is pretty cool, but the Priest version blows it away. the guitar riff is so dirty and nasty. i just recently got into Priest and i absolutely love this song.

This is the greatest Vocal demonstartion ever made, truly the best of HAlford, I havent seen anyone have that kinda control on his voice. the scream at the end was amazing (or whatever it was)

A demon. Or the devil.

Ripping good cut. There's no arguing with that disco drumming after the first verse.
