Coffee served in black cup, This must be an omen, Paint an X on my front door, Stop the bad things entering, I might have been dropped, When I was dumb and young, But when the clouds blot the moon, I know evil when it comes Danger, danger, danger, There are forces that'll hurt ya Staring at the coffee, A steam hand beckons me, An eyeball floats upon the brim, And winks mischievously Danger, danger, danger, There are forces that'll get ya. It's inside the house, The attic it crept through, From the corner of my eye, It dashes out of view, Something here's not welcome, Uninvited it has gall, I turn to face this elusive thing and Something wicked downstairs crawls. Danger, danger, danger, Something wicked downstairs crawls.

Lucky Charms 04:50
This stomach of mine is in a syrupy wrath, A swarming hand waves from the bath, I’m missing some time and I don’t know where I’ve been at, I’m sick to my soul and my head feels cracked. I’m lying on the stairs, I’ve caught myself unawares, Follow the trail of white meat into the rosy brine, I cannot take my eyes away from ones that stare at mine. Her breasts are little islands on a great ceramic sky, Demise undressed is great distress to both my virgin eyes, Her deathly grin now purses in, I know not the reason why, And the cadaver in the bathtub gargles out a sickly cry. *Chorus* She flies to me with open arms, Well wasn’t I surprised to find that this girl wasn’t drowned? The fingernails in my neck, I’ll keep as lucky charms, She bites my tongue and then she falls back down. Well what can you say to a lass in death’s decay? As it transpires, she talks anyway, And the howling aside, she spreads her wrists wide, “Look what you did in your dreams last night!” There’s something ‘bout the way she moves that makes you want to die, The horrid truth that I’m to blame, It chews me up inside, The mounting terror is too much, And though she’s cold and wet to touch, I’ll get down on my knees and make the carcass my bride! (Chorus)

A-OK! 02:28
You wake up in the morning and you're already dead, (And it feels good) Gotta go toil, gotta suffer, gotta getcha daily bread, (And I bet it tastes good) Your face is full of bites from the bugs in your bed, (And you look good) And you can't hear a fucking thing but the voices in your head, (Yeah, and we sound good) (Chorus) Every day is a blessing, Not to worry, there's not a thing missing, It's the human way to feel afraid, Just get on your knees and pray, It's A-OK! Your heart is going gangrenous and rotting in your chest, (And it smells good) Your doctor wont answer your calls 'cause you lost his interest, (Now that's real good) You're taking lots of drugs to delete your past (And they go down good) You're sinking down into the ground, it's comin' up fast! (It's comin' up fast! (Chorus) What've we learned? What've we gained? What've we found that's not the same? What's the fuckin' deal? What's the little something that's Difficult to explain? "Life requires a drastic upheaval, So come on now, sunshine, Let's get evil!" Let's burn down the Garden of Eden, And help Satan write a symphony, We'll have the Apocalypse on Friday and go back to work on Monday, It's A-OK to be evil! (Chorus) Get on your knees and pray, Get on your knees and pray, Do as the voices say, Everything's A-OK!

Is this monkey for sale? Does it speak a language or can it read Braille? I need another mammal to share my pain, I need another specimen to scoop out the brain. Is this monkey for sale? If I turn the lights out will she start to wail? I need to know these things for research, If I were to inseminate, would the beast birth? Bring me another, This one has failed me, With science, I shall make history, I shan't allow the fates to make a monkey out of me (Because I'm) Makin' Me A Mutant! Is this rat for sale? I'll grow an ear on its back and hold it up by the tail, I can hear just fine, It's only for kicks, The thought of hearing like a rat is something I don't want to think Please leave my chamber, I wish to be alone, These tests of augmentation prove to be a chore, Igor, clean the slab for the next lifeform! Makin' Me A Mutant! Is this child for sale? I've exhasted all the vermin that you've brought to the table, Does it come diseased or is it just fine? I'll conduct my experiments and make the kid MINE! MAKIN' ME A MUTANT!

Don't go outside, There's toxins in the air, Don't go outside, There's people everywhere, Don't go outside, You're surely doomed to die, Don't go outside, Don't go outside, Don't go outside, Or you'll die.

Drink This 04:08
We find ourselves, At the watering hole, We're not alone, Can you smell the dung? I'll take care of this, Daddy knows what is best, I've made your choice, Of what to ingest. If you don't trust me, Feed it to the plant, Yes, it's supposed to smoke like that... (Chorus) Drink this, Drink this, I won't ask you again, Drink this, Drink this, Just a sip now and then, Drink This, Drink this, It's the latest trend, Drink This, Drink this, Why would I poison a friend? I see colours, That are new to my eye, Death is smiling, Best not to ask why. Past the teeth and over the gums, Look out stomach, time for fun, You gotta believe me, boy, there' s no catch, That's right, precious, DOWN THE HATCH! (Chorus) Why would I....

I never wanted any of this, But I must keep dreaming, Smeared a pricked finger on my lips, Oh now I'm pretty. Get me pickled before you touch me, Jerking limbs are reactionary, Laughing at gibberish, cocktails are miserable, Breath just like Satan's ash, Your lips are despicable. Baby, how can I please you? How may I make your day? What's it take to appease you? Select one sordid game and... Let's Pretend that we're not people, Let's Pretend that we're both free, Let's Pretend it's all for fun and, Let's Pretend it's not just for me, Let's Pretend that there's no demons, Let's Pretend it's just a dream, Let's Pretend it's good behaviour and, Let's Pretend we both agree. The night goes on, Trudging through the rain, Pavement wet with issue, Pigeons soak in pain, A tale of two gritties, Produce of the same vine, Dirty, both with past-times, Our futures are behind. Your face is red and leery, Have I caused you doubt? Justified in secret, I'm holding Aces palmed, Darling, let's go party, I know a little place, With golden nectar that shall make us, Fall from grace. Let's Pretend that we're just foolin', Let's Pretend we're on a date, Let's Pretend I've told the truth and, Let's Pretend I don't know your fate, Let's Pretend that I'm a keeper, Let's Pretend it's not just for cash, Let's Pretend I didn't chemically adjust you and, Let's Pretend your ass ain't grass! Let's Pretend that we're not people, Let's Pretend that we're both free, Let's Pretend it's all for fun and, Let's Pretend it's not just for me, Let's Pretend that there's no demons, Let's Pretend it's just a dream, Let's Pretend it's good behaviour and, Let's Pretend we both agree.

Skeleton Key 03:22
My body is just like a Skeleton Key, I can see through any door with my mind's eye, I got no right being on the inside, But it's fun to see what you hide. Astral projection's a mental protection, From boredom in day-to-day droll, I fly out my skull and I phase through the wall, And it's rare if I ever come home. I'm toying with cryogenics, I'm tired of waiting around, 'Cause I can't give any credit, To this dilapidated town (Chorus) I know the way, boys, I'm not afraid, I know how to break it all down, I got the key, With the skull on the ring, With a worm burrowed into the crown, Open the door, Stare down the void, It's melting off all of my skin, My body is just like a Skeleton Key, I unlock your mind and waltz in. I got a big plan to murder the tax man, The coward is weighing me down, 'Cause I take my share in human blood, And my profits keep me off ground It brings me to sickness to see all the waste, and it's typical to see that it's Man. Mortality is just not that big of a deal, I'd transcend as soon as you can. Quit crying about your body, It don't even have any wings, I'll take you under mine and I'll pour you some wine, And into the night we shall sing... (Chorus)

Food 02:27
(Chorus) They've bottled my dying breath, For the perfume counter shelf, And a clerical error in the depths of Hell, States that I ain't goin' nowhere else. Fetch me a chemical wash, There's a Dollar sign stuck in my eye, Grab me a glass for the maggot, I'll squeeze and tease it out from inside These bootstraps are made of sinew, My stiff upper lip could be a medical issue, Be brave boy, You're fate's toy, And remember, Kid, you're nothing but Food. (Chorus) You can't know who I've been, It's a volatile thing to show, Just like a shuffled hand in a deck of Tarot, You can hazard a guess but never possibly know.

All grown up and wanting to see, What lies over yonder from the top of a tree, Michael got his shadow taken away, Now he follows other ones, chasing his sanity. They jump off into the sea, Rather than expose themselves to mania glee, Just look up and see his teeth, Nothing in there indicates cannibal feast. Don't be scared, unhinged but wont harm a hair, Do not fear, Cackling Michael is here.
11.
Mr. Murder 03:53
I got a job as a henchman, An Igor I once was, I'd run and gather instruments of death, For his evil cause, He's always been a mastermind, A prodigy as a boy, I've read all of his textbooks, How to make planet Earth your toy! (I'm a Golden boy, a Golden boy, Mr. Murder's Golden boy, For Mr. Murder I'm in employ, I work for Mr. Murder.) (Chorus) I'm a boogey-man, I only come out at night, I'm a demon in disguse, I'm hiding in plain sight, What the devil did you think I'd do, With my time in this world? I wanna see it crumble through my claws... With Mr. Murder! He vapourized my family, A small price to pay, For the chance to work with an evil genius, In his secret island cave, I've turned my back on good, And I wouldn't change a thing, It's too much fun to play the villain, Nothing more exciting. (For Mr. Murder I would die, I'm one with Mr. Murder's mind, The God of evil deeds, I'm accessory to his crimes) (Chorus) Clairvoyance in the bathroom, My plan is at its peak, For a moment I doubt myself, Something starts to break, The answer's now unraveling, I look into the mirror and scream... "SCHIZOPHRENIC AND SELF EMPLOYED, MR. MURDER IS ME!" (Chorus)
12.
You keep touching my heart, and I beg you to stop, You keep leaving it fingerprinted, My heart, it won't hold, sentiment overload, and explode in my chest, obliterated. I'm a Devil, you're a girl, We could watch the world burn and make angels in the ashes behind, We'll have the stars all to ourselves, We can select another world and drink the blood of the third kind. (Chorus) I have killed, and I will kill again, I have a new-found foe, That I mistook for a friend, and I'm calling to let you know, You'll be the last one to go, Over the rainbow, When I kill again. Well I can leave this mortal shell, and wreak several kinds of Hell, On a planet that's been asking for it's death. And you've been an exception, To the putrid insurrection, But I still must start existence afresh. I'll keep your picture in my wallet, and your heart in my breast pocket, To feel it beating when I'm blue, and by the time you get this message, The whole world I would have savaged, Just to bring scorched Earth to you... (Chorus)
