This song describes events from Journey to the West, one of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature from the perspective of the most well-known character: Sun Wukong, the Monkey King.
[Verse 1]
Red ribbon on which we ride
Carry us over horizon as the sun setting night
Puts on a phantom cloak
Sing, violet light and evoke
The protection that violet evokes
[Verse 2]
Fasten your focus on your soul
Cause is your fruit and flowers
On red ribbon, swift justice comes
Delivery, white bone demon
[Chorus]
Oh, oh
Begun the havoc in heaven
Oh, oh
Begun the havoc in heaven
[Verse 3]
Deep, deep in the green sea
There is a weapon for me
A pin that is fixing the sea
A pillar of gold, shiny
And if I can pull it free
The cudgel is coming with me
[Verse 4]
Fasten, heave ho, pillar of gold
Runs through the deepest darkest stone
Cudgel undone, weighing one ton
Bring on your force, white bone demon
[Chorus]
Oh, oh
Begun the havoc in heaven
Oh, oh
Begun the havoc in heaven
[Bridge]
Don't believe your eyes when the maiden does arrive
You fool, she's the enemy
And do not trust the guise of a woman old and wise
For truly, she is the white bone demon
[Verse 5]
Dance makakus 'round the fire
Warrior drums, banshee criers
Call to them visions of her pyre
Fueled by the demon's throne
We shall subdue her to bone
And ashes to ashes, her home
[Verse 6]
Fasten your focus on your soul
Cause is your fruit and flowers' home
And in one blow, I smite down my foe
And ashes to ashes, welcome home
[Chorus]
Oh, oh
Begun a havoc in heaven
