  • Well it was many years ago now
    But I really can't be sure
    That's when it all began then
    I heard that knock upon my door

    And the wolfman's brother
    The wolfman's brother
    Came down on me

    The telephone was ringing
    That's when I handed it to Liz
    She said, "This isn't who it would be
    If it wasn't who it is"

    It's the wolfman's brother
    The wolfman's brother
    Came down on me

    So I might be on a side street
    Or a stairway to the stars
    I hear the high pitched cavitation
    Of propellers from afar

    It's the wolfman's brother
    Come down on me

    So with meaningless excitement
    And smooth atonal sound
    It's like a cross between a hurricane
    And a ship that's run aground

    It's the wolfman's brother
    Coming down on - coming down on me Writer/s: JON FISHMAN, MIKE GORDON, PAGE MC CONNELL, TOM MARSHALL, TREY ANASTASIO
