Venture Brothers - Look Away

On Sunday, I caught the opener of season two of The Venture Bros on Adult Swim. I had seent he final episode some time ago and wish I'd been following this all along. I can't stop playing the song Look Away by Nick DeMayo. Here are the lyrics:

Two angels are plucked
From the heavenly sky
In an instant they're gone
In the blink of an eye
If you listen close
You'll hear cherubs cry
Oh, look away

(The rest of the song contines on the mp3...)

My head is heavy
Their bodies bruised
Our spirits shattered
When we heard the news
The chorus is singin'
Its final tune
Oh, look away

We ran to the mountains
We shouted on high
We pled to the gods
And in answer replied
What was once is now lost
Yet could never die
Oh, look away

Look away
Whoa-whoa,
look away
Look away-hey

Quite a song for a pair of cartoon brothers who die in their prime.

You can find the mp3 out at The Venture Bros page at Adult Swim.
