lyrics

You’ll never see him coming
He inhabits just the shade
I must profess a deep distress
for whatever he is made
He is all things evil
And even some that are dead
He haunts our homes and all abodes
And fills our dreams with dread
When his maw is open
Out jump vipers and toads
His blood is black
his bones are cracked
His saliva corrodes
You know the bell is tolling
Tonight it tolls for thee
“Because I could not stop for Death,
He kindly stopped for me”

You may sense him nearby
When your hackles rise
With his Hell-colored eyes
In an inhuman disguise
Within his habiliments’ seaming
Perchance, perceive the muffled screaming
Of every soul he’s ever consumed
He’s proud of his sickle-y statistics
Considering the logistics
He’s devoured the globe
We are entombed

This tintinnabulation
May lead to lunacy
So, have a drink with Mr. Brink;
Get acquainted intimately
He’s every wicked villain
A singular mystery (Mr. Eerie)
His plots thicken night and day
Exponentially
Where the woodbine twineth
Our end, ineluctably
And forthwith
You’ll cross the River Styx
To be respawned in Hades
Where every night is Hallowe’en
