So
Evil
Each bird
Carries
A drop
Of the devil’s
Blood
Under it’s tongue
One crow
For sorrow
Two crows
For joy
Three makes
A murder
The shape of things to come
I saw
A crow
In a
Dream
A bad
Omen
Foreshadowing
Sadness
One crow
For sorrow
Two crows
For joy
Three makes
A murder
The shape of things to come
One crow

Two crows
For joy
Three makes
A murder

Monument to Suffering
05:31
|

Night time
It shines
Like a beacon in the black
Illuminated obelisk
Highlights what you lack
High time
Prime time
You heed the call
High time
Past time
To watch it fall
A monument to suffering
An effigy of bone
A monument to agony
A sepulcher of chrome
A monument to suffering
An effigy of bone
A monument to agony
A sepulcher of chrome
A monument to suffering
An effigy of bone
A monument to agony
A sepulcher of chrome
A monument to suffering
An effigy of bone
A monument to agony
A sepulcher of chrome
Showtime it shines
Burning from within
Illuminated by the fire
The end it does begin
High time
Prime time
You heed the call
High time
Past time
To watch it fall
A monument to suffering
An effigy of bone
A monument to agony
A sepulcher of chrome
A monument to suffering
An effigy of bone
A monument to agony
A sepulcher of chrome

Both oracles and seers
Practice divination
Oracles were conduits for gods
Their voice on earth
Occult divination
Insight gained
Through a ritual
Diviners ascertain
How to read the omen
The science of the sands
Based on interpretation
Of figures on the surface
Known as tetragrams
Occult divination
Insight gained
Through a ritual
Diviners ascertain
How to read the omen

Satanic Mechanic
06:18
|

In the black of night
My truck broke down
I called triple a
They said they’d send someone down
An all black tow truck
Pulled up by my side
It was filled with dark smoke
And a pair of red eyes
Satanic mechanic
Your truck he will fix
Demonic transmission
Only $666
Satanic mechanic
Fix my ride
And we can have a good time
Back at his shop
So many things to see
He got a blow torch
But no acetylene
He got to work
And his tools went buzz
He kept them in a snapon box
Covered in human skulls
Satanic mechanic
Your truck he will fix
Demonic transmission
Only $666
Satanic mechanic
Fix my ride
And we can have a good time
Satanic mechanic
Your truck he will fix
Demonic transmission
Only $666
Satanic mechanic
Fix my ride
And we can have a good time
And we can have a good time
And we can have a good time

Witch-Cult

Anointing ourselves
We are carried by the night
Through the air to distant lands
To do our black magic rites
Witch-cult?
This cult
Gathered under the full moon
Witch-cult?
This cult
We’ll be coming to get you soon
We are not Satan’s brides
Though they think it to be
Our senses liberated
We wake well and merry
Witch-cult?
This cult
Gathered under the full moon
Witch-cult?
This cult
We’ll be coming to get you soon
Witch-cult?

Gathered under the full moon

We’ll be coming to get you soon

Brita the Wise
05:27

On an island
In the Baltic Sea
A wise woman old Britta
Cunning as can be
Don’t fear the wise woman
She reads diseases in wine
She learned to heal the sick
Punished for her unholy crime
The white witch
The cunning folks
Their power comes from the land
From the plants and the oaks
Don’t fear the wise woman
She reads diseases in wine
She learned to heal the sick
Punished for her unholy crime
Don’t fear the wise woman
She reads diseases in wine
She learned to heal the sick
Punished for her unholy crime

Witchy Woman
05:06
|

Raven hair and ruby lips
Sparks fly from her fingertips
Echoed voices in the night
She's a restless spirit on an endless flight
Woo-hoo, witchy woman
See how high she flies
Woo-hoo, witchy woman
She got the moon in her eye
She held me spellbound in the night
Dancing shadows and firelight
Crazy laughter in another room
And she drove herself to madness with a silver spoon
Woo-hoo, witchy woman
See how high she flies
Woo-hoo, witchy woman
She got the moon in her eye
Well, I know you want a lover, let me tell you, brother
She's been sleeping in the Devil's bed
And there's some rumors going 'round, someone's underground
She can rock you in the nighttime 'til your skin turns red
Woo-hoo, witchy woman
See how high she flies
Woo-hoo, witchy woman
She got the moon in her eye
