Originally by Sugar Ray, new lyrics based on Poe's "The Raven" by my favorite Fiverr customer, Donna Ray (aka eris523).

Since you will absolutely not be able to hear the exact lyrics, I'll post them here.

Ev'ry morning there's a raven perched upon the bust
Of Pallas o'er my chamber door
As I was napping he came tapping at my window
Stately bird from saintly days of yore

Ebon wanderer
From the nightly shore
Not at all stopped or stayed he but with mien of lord or lady
Perched above my door

Sternly, then, beguiling my sorrow into smiling
(Such gravitas he bore)
Not a feather fluttered but one sole word he uttered,
No more

Ghastly bird say
(Ne-evermore)
Ev'ry morning
(Ne-e-evermore)
Ev'ry morning he's still perched there/Shut up, damn raven, don't say that word
(Ne-e-evermore)
He only says one word
(Ne-e-evermore)
He only says, he only says/Shut up, damn raven! Shut up, damn raven!



Ev'ry morning there's a raven perched upon the pallid
Bust of Pallas o'er my door
I sit reclining on my cushion's velvet lining,
That which she shall press, ah, nevermore

Prophet, thing of evil! - whether bird or devil,
Tempter tempest-tossed ashore:
Shall I clasp in Aidenn that rare and radiant maiden
Once more?


(Ne-evermore)
Ev'ry morning
(Ne-e-evermore)
Ev'ry morning he still sits there/Shut up, damn raven, don't say that word

(Ne-evermore)
Ev'ry morning
(Ne-e-evermore)
Ev'ry morning he still sits there/Shut up, damn raven! Shut up, damn raven!


He only says one word
To me
(You see)

He only says one word
To me



Ev'ry morning, never flitting, still he's sitting,
Still he's sitting just above my door
His eyes have seeming of a demon's that is dreaming
Lamp-light streaming shadows on my floor

Shut up, damn raven! Don't say that word!
[bird whistle]
Ev'ry morning
[bird whistle]
Ev'ry morning he's still perched there/Shut up, damn raven! Shut up, damn raven!
[bird whistle]
Ev'ry morning
[bird whistle]
Shadow upon my floor/Ev'ry morning/Shut up, damn raven, don't say that word
[bird whistle]
Ev'ry morning
[bird whistle]
Shadowed my soul
[bird whistle]
Ev'ry morning still is sitting
[bird whistle]
Ev'ry morning/Shut up, damn raven! Shut up, damn raven!
[bird whistle]
Ev'ry morning still is sitting
[bird whistle]
