- 06. The Doomsday Cult Blues
You see us down in the subway, or maybe out in the park
Suburban house in your suburban street
We don't go out after dark
Because the sunlight is like his warm embrace
The sign is coming some day
He'll speak to us with the honey voice: 'take our hand child, follow the way'
Brothers and sisters rejoice
- Ballad For Beelzebub
Yodel well, and your pickings swell
And you play so hard for the folks in Hell
And they can't see nothing
...Nothin' at all
Chains to the legs, bolts to the ground
"You boys ain't leaving 'til this crowd turns around"
They don't hear nothing
- Close The Book
VERSE1
We'd like to thank you for your time,
for leading us here till the end of the line.
Where words disappear like wind thru your ears
where all the uncertain becomes clear
CHORUS

- Life Is Elsewhere
I had a thought
A thought that was gone it's coming back now
It lit a fire all over the West it's coming back now
It threw our bodies and would knock is around it's coming back now
It made us feel that's all that we need but life is elsewhere
Sweet thoughts of comfort and grace it never takes much
We'd get drunk on a diet of lust we never needed much
- Mary Melody
I walked into a bar with my chaps and my spurs
You were sitting there drinking whiskey for hers
And that's when I thought I'd eat you
Instead of striking now I thought I'd sit and have a beer
And listen to the tails of the drunk in my ear
That's when I thought I'd eat you
You were winning poker, that's when I moved closer
Your chips were building up like the whiskey in your cup
- Priest
We are the haunted house
We are the setting sun
We are the wolfman baby
We are two boys on the run
We are the vampire smile
We are the end of time
We are the swamp thing
- She Likes To Eat The Skin
The boilers gone all wrong,
the linesman like to smoke and lets the train keep going,
lets the train keep rolling
And when it floats away,
that bridge was never safe whats all the town folks say,
now the towns folk pray
- Takes One To Know One
It takes one to know 1 2 3 4 ( X 3)
Meet me at the gate
Nah I'll meet you at the back door
Takes one two know 5 6 7 8
Takes 1 2 no 7 8 9
It takes me hours to get in tune but bunny I'll meet you somewhere soon
- The Chrysalid
Put your head in the dirt,
and start to eat your way down.
Your belly will hurt,
but keep on eating it down.
Wiggle like the worm,
but keep on wriggling down.
Till you reach the centre,
you can lay yourself down.
- The Creep
All along you've been trying to hide,
All along you've been trying to hide.
Don't go, don't go, we're running out of time
Im going down, down down,
I'm gonna find you today
All along you've been trying to run,
- The End of the World
I'm going to see you at the end of the world
When it comes round, it comes round
At the rapture I'll be dancing in a twirl
Spinning round, spinning round
God's breath ain't a breeze
It's a red hot burning wind
It tears off the skin of everyone who's sinned
- The Parasite
When darkness surrounds you,
and your weary and searching for life.
I will come and find you,
take your hand and hold it in mine.
Ill lead us by the waters edge,
where black waves crash out our feet.
And in that darkness by the waters edge,
- The Widow
You leave the light on even though Im not coming home,
try to ignore the consistent drone.
Starring silently at the silent phone,
somethings will come back to haunt you,
when your on your own.
Sometimes you grab the air when you are down,
some people float and some people drown
