Verses original; Chorus is from the movie[s] "Tales From A Parallel Universe".Story
This song, used later in the opening credits for the series Lexx, is only a fragment. [The chorus lyrics are taken from closed captions and may not be canonical.] For a long time, I and others have wanted to make a complete song from it. The lyrics merely recap Kai's career; spoilers are minor and are from the first movie only.
Lyrics
Last of the Brunen-G2/14/02
[dm] Yo wey oh, Hum va [C] rey
[F] Yo [Bb] wey [F] ra, [em] jarum Brunen-G
[em] Yo wey oh, Hum va [D] rey
[G] Yo [C] wey [G] ra, [em] jarum Brunen-G [f#m]
[em] Yo [C] wey [G] ra, [em] jarum [bm] Brunen-G [em]
[dm] Our starting [C] point was a [F] para [Bb] dise
[dm] Our mother [F] home, [G] second from Brunis
[em] Gifted with [D] health, we made [G] science and [C] art
[F] And an [G] empire [A] in [G/A] the [A] stars
(chorus)
The Universe is made of Light
All things that are shine in the night
The Divine Shadow cannot touch our world
But the youth fight like the Brunen-G of old
(chorus)
I led the charge in our insect ships
We were small, but we could sting
To the last we were exterminated
The enemy chose me to reanimate
(chorus)
Captured, I served two thousand years
An assassin, last of the Brunen-G
In the light universe I have been dark;
Perhaps in the dark, I will be light.
(chorus) 2x
