Clutch - Oh, Isabella Lyrics
Ratted out in hades
Forced to return
To rockville
With nothing but a rucksack
Hard lesson learned
Foul council of leeches
Want silence and bedlam
Take refuge
And a dagger to the bites
Then suck out the venom
Oh Isabella
Your ship's run aground
Kneel at the sword
Scream at the clouds
There's smoke on the wind
Jaguar and fever
Have taken your men
Running on the tightrobe
Woven by spider
While the canyon
Teeming with shoppers
Grows wider and wider
The clock and the compass?
Surrender
Run headlong to the void
The reptile's among us!
Oh Isabella
Your ship's run aground
Kneel at the sword
Scream at the clouds
Oh Isabella
There's smoke on the wind
Jaguar and fever
Chained to the oxcart
With a chest full of arrows
The villagers
Are burdened with cedar
By back and by barrow
Scrub brush from the wasteland
Snake in a tree
Remember
When they throw the torches in
Breathe, breathe, breathe
Oh Isabella
Your ship's run aground
Kneel at the sword
Scream at the clouds
Oh Isabella
There's smoke on the wind
Jaguar and fever
Have taken your men
Oh Isabella
Your ship's run aground
Kneel at the sword
Scream at the clouds
Oh Isabella
There's smoke on the wind
Jaguar and fever
Have taken your men

Clutch Oh, Isabella Comments
Most underrated band
For anyone that hasn't, Neils other band, The Company Band is almost as good, check em out!
Fuckin great song!
I love this one! I read the book on the ship
21 people are really the reptiles amongst us.
Bea4 :(
Clutch-Oh Isabella...you either get it or you don't! If you don't...then we don't get you!
Wow - one of the highlights of this cool album! \m/
A viking story!!
A time traveler's story watching queen Isabellas conquest/eplorations fall apart.
Yea..Neal...never shave again...your kid & I won't like you anymore.... 😁😕
An epic Song that easily gives " The Rhyme of The Ancient Mariner " a run for its cargo.!!!
That's exactly what I was thinking about when I heard this song
Sarahi Sarabia :It’s because Neil and His Courageous Shipmates accomplished something as timeless ,in half the time ; but without losing any of the swashbuckling sense of adventure and the tragic sort of longing that both songs so deeply inspire
so fuckin poetic.Queen Isabella would be honored.Neil Fallon for prez!

Here's the lyrics, since I couldn't find any vids with them added.
Ratted out in hades
Forced to return
To Rockville
With nothing but a rucksack
Hard lesson learned
Foul council of leeches
Want silence and bet 'em
Take rebute
And a dagger to the bites
Then suck out the venom
Oh Isabella
Your ship's run aground
Kneel at the sword
Scream at the clouds
Oh Isabella
There's smoke on the wind
Jaguar in fever
Have taken your men
Running on the tightrope
Woven by spider
While the canyon
Teeming with shoppers
Grows wider and wider
What demon's possessing
The clock and the compass
Surrender
Run headlong to the void
The reptile's among us
Oh Isabella
Your ship's run aground
Kneel at the sword
Scream at the clouds
Oh Isabella
There's smoke on the wind
Jaguar in fever
Have taken your men
Chained to the ox cart
With a chest full of arrows
The villages
Are burning with cedar
By bag and by barrow
Scrub brush from the wasteland
Snake in a tree
Remember
When they throw the torches in
Breathe, breathe, breathe
Oh Isabella

Kneel at the sword
Scream at the clouds

Kneel at the sword
Scream at the clouds
Oh Isabella
There's smoke on the wind
Jaguar in fever
Have taken your men
Running on the tight rope woven by spider, when the canyon teaming with sappers grows wider and wider? What demons possessing the clock and the compass surrender, run head long to the void the reptiles among us. bunununa bununa na na !!!
to return to rockvill, WITH NOTHING BUT ROCK SACK. HARD LESSON LEARNED.
Trever Flick rucksack
Fuck me I love this song so much. Probably my fave on this record.
I
420 blaze it to this song \(._.)/
+ThatRawGaming hence this is my Jam for gaming.......
Omg! Finally found a song with my name!!!
+Isabella Dias ;-)
yuhh babe give suck
you must be beautiful
I actually wrote a song for My Band :Sick Rick and The Terminal Terror , called : "Isabella :Beyond The Bells of Midnight " that prophesied Your coming ... and if lacks The power or The artistic aim of CLUTCH's Mighty ode to one so named ... it is simply because I haven't yet added the finishing touch that comes from knowing the prophecy has already come to pass into the world : Pure Lightning , in The Shape of a Woman!!!
Don't forget the classic brazillian folk music called "Isabela" from Bonde do Maluco!
these guys deserve to be more well known
ian russell True fans of rock know Clutch.
True, but its like a private club of those who know. How they didnt get more widely known in the mainstream is hard to say. I think the lack of selling out has something to do with it lol.
yeah, agreed, signed to countless record labels, till they made their own; Weathermaker. Their music is varied & progressive but they never, ever sold out. All albums differ, but they have to differ. Seen 'em in Belfast & they didn't dissapoint. Love these guys & if you don't know 'em...you're loss!
@George Montgomery I seen them at Earth Rocker 2 last year, in West VA. USA. It was an awesome show, my first for them. And it was sooo fucking hot. Well worth it though.
ian russell I completely agree, it’s 2019 and they still don’t have a lot of views
neil is my husbando
@asdasdas185 hands off
Can't stop listening JFC.
AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHH I Fucking love it !!!
Fucking beasts...sometimes im glad I have my own massive, mind blowing, hard rocking secret...but then I look around thinking, how come they don't know. There loss. My void has been filled
Your void has been filled with your own excrement. ORDINARY
+galaxy 500 What do you mean exactly? I'm intrigued
But I have heard them and so has everyone who reads his comment, because it's on the fuckin song. Great band btw
AMEEEEEEEN
Deth By Mewtwo A fucking men my brother...........
This is incredibly addictive.
This band IS AMAZING!
GOD DAMN IS THIS GREAT - I MEAN AS GOOD AS IT GETS FOR ME.
Both this and "The Face" MELT MY GODAMN FACE OFF. SO FUCKING GOOD.
+Cerberus LOVE.
+Cerberus i agree
One of my favorite Clutch songs off the new album. I read an interview with Neil saying his inspiration for this song was time traveling explorers searching for the fountain of youth and he imagined if he was one of them as he drove down the turnpike to rockville maryland. Isabella is of course Queen Isabella and her love struck explorer Columbus sort of cursing the sky as his expedition falls apart. It quite genius.
@monsterbap Great Hugh Jackman movie !
The Concept and The progression ; the nods towards a Thin Lizzy and Maiden that Sult unashamedly but not shamelessly , adds on with a firm hand ... it pits CLUTCH , Our own Explorers of time and space , against all of The Prog Rock bands and their over celebrated concept albums ... this song carries the others :?One bullet after Elephant slug after another into the eye -Mouth of The void ... The abyss shrieking because it recognizes them for Who and What They are : The Four Horse Men -Gun Slingers galloping Hell Bent for The Tower at The end of The Apocalypse .
If this doesn't make the hairs on on the back of your neck stand up, and you head start banging, I don't know what to tell you. Go back to the factory, your soul is missing....
you must prove yourself to be worthy, and pray to Neil's beard for forgiveness
This....just this.....wins the internet
Saw them live in Houston a few months ago. Fucking awesome. Underrated if you ask me
UncleJersey409 underrated is a fucking understatement!! they're straight up AMAZING !!!!!
Chuck Norris is powerless against Clutch Norris!
not a badass guitar player, but figured out how to play it)
not a badass guitar player, but figured out how to play it)
BloodyRockGOD14 not a bad ass guitar player? Sorry bro but he is a fucking badass.......
I CANT STOP WITH THE CLUTCH :)
Chuck Norris shaved his beard because it was intimidated by Neils Beard.
chuck Norris was made from just one of neil's beard hairs
I stopped listening to Clutch for a couple years, then I heard this album out of fucking nowhere and it blew my socks off. Neal, will you please forgive me for, albeit briefly, straying form the gospel of the almighty beard?
Great song! Love the way it transitions between the chorus riff and the gentle jam bits... and then... man, fuck it. I love Clutch.
Winning!
Beast indeed!
