Lyrics SRT:
1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,380
[Intro]
[instrumental, echoing piano chords]
2
00:00:09,380 --> 00:00:15,400
[Verse 1]
Two a.m., September '39, another night at the Times.
3
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:20,940
A year of wars and mysteries, chasing shadows through these lines.
4
00:00:20,940 --> 00:00:26,100
Just heading out when the editor called, a stranger in the gloom,
5
00:00:26,100 --> 00:00:31,100
Bronze skin, steady eyes, a smile that banished all the room.
6
00:00:31,100 --> 00:00:36,100
[Chorus]
Adventure calls, a whispered plea, across the desert night.
7
00:00:36,100 --> 00:00:41,100
A partner sought, for what will be, bathed in pale moonlight.
8
00:00:41,100 --> 00:00:47,100
El Tigre waits, a hidden mine, secrets buried deep,
9
00:00:47,100 --> 00:00:52,100
And something stirs, a chilling sign, promises to keep.
10
00:00:56,100 --> 00:01:01,100
[Verse 2]
Robert Barrett? I’m Bill Johnson, Secret Service, you see.
11
00:01:01,100 --> 00:01:07,100
Thirty years in Mexico, Uncle Sam relies on me.
12
00:01:07,100 --> 00:01:13,100
A case like this, or worse, it seems, needs someone brave and bold.
13
00:01:13,100 --> 00:01:18,100
Are you game for a little adventure? A story to be told?
14
00:01:18,100 --> 00:01:23,100
[Chorus]
Adventure calls, a whispered plea, across the desert night.
15
00:01:23,100 --> 00:01:28,100
A partner sought, for what will be, bathed in pale moonlight.
16
00:01:28,100 --> 00:01:34,100
El Tigre waits, a hidden mine, secrets buried deep,
17
00:01:34,100 --> 00:01:39,100
And something stirs, a chilling sign, promises to keep.
18
00:01:44,100 --> 00:01:49,100
[Bridge]
Vernon’s daughter, Ellen bright, a memory so clear…
19
00:01:49,100 --> 00:01:54,100
A scientist gone mad for light, consumed by doubt and fear.
20
00:01:54,100 --> 00:01:59,100
Radio whispers in the air, strange chirps I can't define...
21
00:01:59,100 --> 00:02:05,100
Something alien beyond compare, crossing the boundary line.
22
00:02:05,100 --> 00:02:20,100
[Verse 3]
Red planes flying overhead, hauling cargo to the coast.
23
00:02:20,100 --> 00:02:26,100
Jap tramp steamers, secrets spread, a dangerous host.
24
00:02:26,100 --> 00:02:31,100
The mountain watches, cold and stark, Mocolynatal’s gaze…
25
00:02:31,100 --> 00:02:36,100
A shadow falls, a burning mark, in these uncertain days.
26
00:02:36,100 --> 00:02:41,100
[Chorus]
Adventure calls, a whispered plea, across the desert night.
27
00:02:41,100 --> 00:02:47,100
A partner sought, for what will be, bathed in pale moonlight.
28
00:02:47,100 --> 00:02:52,100
El Tigre waits, a hidden mine, secrets buried deep,
29
00:02:52,100 --> 00:02:58,100
And something stirs, a chilling sign, promises to keep.
30
00:02:58,100 --> 00:03:03,100
[Outro]
The world is changing… faster than we know…
31
00:03:03,100 --> 00:03:07,100
Something’s rising… somewhere below…
