Riddles Are Abound Tonight Lyrics

2, 3, 4... Aw, what the hell was that? 2, 3,4...

Riddles are abound tonight,
Since the wizard's taken flight.
By the shroud of mystery,
Go to be serenity.

Open hearts are numb to pain
While open minds fill up of strain
If they cut this pie in two,
I'd still give both halves to you.

Huh Aww Yeah!

Take the man that fills the throne,
Contemplate his time alone.
Add a dash of little boys,
And watch the buzzards tear away.

Huh Aww Yeah!

Riddles are abound tonight,
Riddles are abound tonight,
Riddles are abound tonight,
Riddles are abound tonight.

Huh Aww Yeah!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I've always thought the opening bass riff to this song was Les' bass version of Woody Woodpeckers' laugh. It matches perfectly, really

The music video pretty much explains this song, which I shall explain. In the video, there is a tower with 4 layers, on the top layer is Les and the band, and they are playing on bicycles, which are turning the gears to the giant structure under them. Under that is a black goddess dancing to the slide guitar riff, and under her is a woman in a white wedding dress who is teaching to the children below her in sign language. This song's meaning is pretty vague, Les made the lyrics to simply be words of wisdom.
