Does anyone know where I can get words to Blue Oyster Cult songs. Some of the words are really hard to make especially when you consider that the probably don't make a whole lot of sense to start with. I Would like words from the first 4 or 5 albums. Jim Wiley

I KNOW it's on 'Tyranny and Mutation', and also on 'Some Enchanted Evening', I believe. It used to work, for I sent off a couple of times to get them. One thing tho: I can't find the lyrics to 'Last Days of May' anywhere. Any ideas anybody? Let me know by e-mail if you can't work something out - I may have the lyrics around someplace ... -- David Arnold University of Maryland usenet: ...!seismo!rglvax!cvl!umd5!davida ARPA: davida@umd5.ARPA

In any case, on the inner sleeves of my copies of "Tyranny and Mutation" and "Secret Treaties" (BOC's second and third albums, I believe) it says For all cult lyrics send self-addressed stamped envelope to Room 1208 51 W 52 St. New York, NY 10019 These albums were made a little over ten years ago, so it's hard to say whether this address is still good, but I'd give it a try. Good luck. Greg Brewster (brewster@wisc-crys.ARPA)

I > Would like words from the first 4 or 5 albums. > Jim Wiley I'm taking this directly off the Blue Oyster Cult album "Some Enchanted Evening" Qoute: "For all Cult lyrics send: 50c[ents] (For Postage and Handling) and a self-adressed envelope to: Blue Oyster Cult, P.O. Box 828, Setauket, L.I., N.Y. 11733. Due to expenses, lyric requests lacking postage and envelopes will not be honored" Unqoute. As you can see this does say "all Cult lyrics" so my guess it that it not only confined to the tracks on the abve mentioned album.

Good luck. Hmmmmmmm !!!! That's interesting! Were the albums PURCHASED 10 years ago, or more recently? I have copies of their first 5 or 6 albums, and started buying them about 8 years ago. The address in mine is different - specifically (I don't have them in front of me, but it's close) the city. In mine, the destination is Setauket, NY. I sent off twice to this address and received lyrics both times. Of course, this was > 5 years ago, so it LOOKS LIKE the address has changed, and you have the re-released albums with the address change. What year did you buy the albums? What does the inner sleeve of 'Secret Treaties' look like? -- David Arnold University of Maryland usenet: ...!seismo!rglvax!cvl!umd5!davida ARPA: davida@umd5.ARPA
