the buffalo had given up on the world
and apollo, apollo is kissing all the valley girls
we climbed up the cross (?) on the mountain on new year's eve
it was just God, the blizzard, the dreamweaver and me
my god, i miss the way we used to be
so here's a photograph for you to hold
it's my picture right before i got old
it's a picture of a buffalo
that we rode (?) into extinction
that was the crime we committed in the night
apollo, i heard your sister is equated with the moon
i think your sister is just another Runaround Sue
i say where have you been, where have you been, Erato?
where have you been, where have you been, Erato?
because it's been a long time since we sat around the willow tree fire
where Anna played guitar and the rest of us fell in love
that was back before she changed her name
did he ever find out where to her side was fame?
like the days before anna changed her name
well here's a photograph for you to hold
it's my picture right before i got old
it's a picture of a buffalo
that we rode into extinction
that was the crime you committed in the night
that was the crime you committed in the night
so here's a photograph for you to hold
it's my picture right before i got old
it's a picture of a prize (?)
you hunter, you hunter, oh you hunter
Anna, Anna, Anna, Anna, oh, why'd you change your name?
i'm pretty sure about most of that. Runaround Sue is the name a song from the 60s - i'm not sure why it's there but i'm pretty sure that's right and he definitely doesn't say "fool." Erato is one of the Greek muses, and she is generally shown carrying an instrument that Apollo invented, so that makes sense. The last major change I made was "where Anna played guitar and the rest of us fell in love" instead of "we're on the flaming tower and the rest of us headed home" which I'm positive about. And then there were some pronoun changes. The only lyrics i'm not sure about are "we climbed up THE CROSS," but that seems kind of right, "that we RODE into extinction" which could be roll like you had it, but mostly "did he ever find out where to her side was fame?" which i'm positive is wrong but I have no idea what it is.
this one is really tricky. you are definitely right about him not saying fool and it does sound like fool so i'll go with what you have. I found out that Apollo's sister Artemis is often equated with the moon so that makes sense

I'm going to trust your judgement on Erato cause I knew mine was wrong anyway. I agree with the Anna playing guitar line too, I can hear that. The last line of that part stumps me too but I'm pretty sure I can hear the first part as being "Did he ever find out where...

I also just realized that at the end he says Anna only three times and the fourth time is actually an Oh, like in the title. I also just discerned the female vocals, but there is part where she sounds like she's just saying na na na's but it could be Anna, i'm not sure.
The last line of the first verse is what is really confusing me. I can kind of hear what you put, but I can hear him say "in the blizzard" and not just the blizzard. It could be "God in the blizzard, caught in the blizzard, guided the blizzard." I'm just not sure.

I meant that it does sound like SUE, not fool, my bad.
