Welcome to our sanguinary sect of worship Feel at home in our black conventicle As we anathematise all those who oppose us
Don't summon the Devil Don't call the priests If you need the strength The conjuring Obey!
Behold, the flames rise from the compass' cardinal points Burn the sacred oil, and with the ashes you'll anoint
Arrange the symbols of the wizard and magician Light the candles, place the parchment paper in position Between its leaves place the lash from a black cat's eye A straw of a broom, fold, and burn, and centralise
Don't summon the devil Don't call the priests If you need the strength Then conjure me
I am the Devil's advocate A salesman, if you will You know my name You know my name
I met your father years ago I gave him what he'd please He called my name And you'll do the same
I'm claiming what is mine by right It's time to close the deal You're bought and sold Bought and sold
Come join me in my infernal depths Mephisto's hall of fame I've got your soul I've got your soul
The conjuring... Obey!

What do you mean, "I don't believe in God"? I talk to him everyday What do you mean, "I don't support your system"? I go to court when I have to What do you mean, "I can't get to work on time"? Got nothing better to do And, what do you mean, "I don't pay my bills"? Why do you think I'm broke? Huh?
If there's a new way Oh, I'll be the first in line But it better work this time
What do you mean, "I hurt your feelings"? I didn't know you had any feelings What do you mean, "I ain't kind"? Just not your kind
What do you mean, "I couldn't be the President Of the United States of America"? Tell me something, it's still "We the people" right?
If there's a new way Oh, I'll be the first in line But it better work this time
Can you put a price on peace?
Peace Peace sells Peace Peace sells Peace sells, but who's buying? Peace sells, but who's buying? Peace sells, but who's buying? Peace sells, but who's buying? (No, no no no no) (Peace sells)
Devils Island
Devils Island
The light that fills my lonely cell, Is blocked out by the key, That locks the door to this hell, The place they wanted me. Time's racing like the wind, Execution's near, Oh lord, I wait for death, And, yes, I have no fear. I recall that night, my every breath, And, step along the way. Closed my eyes, walking, As danger paved the way. The devil, and the darkness Let her evil wander free And, here on Devils Island, The final stop for me.
Devils Island, Devils Island.
Oh, there is no escape, The sea is full of sharks. The tide takes you away, and Smashes you on the rocks. The sun is shining, But feel not today, It's warmth, it's dying, And fading away.
Devils Island, (here I stay) Devils Island.
Oh, hear the call, From the grave beyond. Oh, so pernicious, Her soul it creates song. As there is no man, that is Here upon the earth, Able to terminate our Noisome will since birth.
The priest that reads the sermons, Is walking next to me, To the stake, my last request, To have her burn with me. But, so it did, the heavens opened, Rain began to fall. The final judgement came, and Was spread before you all. Final judgement.
Old, weak, and feeble, But the lesson taught to me, To stay away from evil, She doesn't care for me. She haunts me in my sleep, Though I tore that page away. And, here on Devils Island, I'll always have to stay.
Devils Island, Devils Island. (Devils Island, Devils Island.) Here I am.
Devils Island, Devils Island.
Good Mourning/Black Friday
Good Mourning/Black Friday
Hey, I don't feel so good Something's not right Something's coming over me What the fuck is this? Whoa!
Killer, intruder, a homicidal man If you see me coming, run fast as you can Bloodthirsty demon who's stalking the street I hack up my victims like pieces of meat Bloodthirsty demon, sinister fiend Bludgenous slaughter's my evil deed
My hammer's a cold piece of blood-lethal steel I grin while you writhe with the pain that I deal Swinging the hammer, I hack through their heads Deviant defilers, you're next to be dead I unleash my hammer with sadistic intent Pounding, surrounding, slamming through your head Yeah!
Bodies convulse in agony and pain I mangle their faces, 'til no features remain A blade for the butchering, I cut them to shreds First take out the organs, then cut off the head The remains of the flesh now sop under my feet One more bloody massacre, the murder's complete I seek to dismember, a sadist fiend Bloodbath's my way of gettin' clean
I lurk in the alley, wait for the kill I have no remorse for the blood that I spill A merciless butcher who lives underground I'm out to destroy and I will cut you down Cut you down I see you, and I'm waiting for Black Friday
Turn me loose! Killer, intruder, a homicidal man If you see me coming, run fast as you can Bloodthirsty demon who's stalking the street I hack up my victims like pieces of meat Bloodthirsty demon, sinister fiend Bludgenous slaughter's my evil deed A merciless butcher who lives underground I'm out to destroy and I will cut you down
It's Black Friday, paint the Devil on the wall It's Black Friday, paint the Devil on the wall It's Black Friday, paint the Devil on the wall It's Black Friday, paint the Devil on the wall It's Black Friday, paint the Devil on the wall It's Black Friday, paint the Devil on the wall It's Black Friday, paint the Devil on the wall It's Black Friday, paint the Devil on the Devil on the, Devil on the wall
Bad Omen
Bad Omen
Down fell the stars and they splashed in the sea. "Mi nomine baphomet, " come dance with me. Sacrifice the virgins, spiritual rites. Their master has come, the moon is full tonight. Drinking, dancing, they worship and toast. The Devil, who's watching, with demons remote. Fire, rising, racing in your blood. Possessed, naive, his service is done. Bloody blasphemy Sinister's the word as the demons take their fill. An orgy's taking place, human blood will spill. And act of worship as they conceive the ghouls. Satan has their souls, they sing pagan tunes. The ceremony is sure to be cursed. They wait for his blessing but down comes the worst. Their bodies, soulless, a corpse from the grave. Their minds are helpless and no one can save them, No one can save them.

I Ain't Superstitious

My Last Words
My Last Words
My life's on time, but again my sense is late Feel a might unsteady, but still I have to play Six to one's the odds and we have the highest stakes Once again I gamble with my very life today Highly polished metal, the oil makes it gleam Fill the terror chamber, your mind begins to scream Your life is like a trigger, never trouble 'til you're squeezed Now you crack a smile as you give the gun a tease
Place the pistol down, now give the gun a spin Soon as the spinning stops, oh no, the game starts in A hateful way of vengeance, a bit of playful sin Load another bullet, the second round begins A couple grains of powder, a couple grams of lead A touch against the trigger, a touch inside the head Take another drink and raise the last bets Think about my last words, they might be what I just said
A click comes from the hammer that couldn't drive a nail Sense the numbing cold blue or the red of Hades' grill A fraction of a second, do you lose, or maybe still? Pass it to the left, and collect your mighty kill Add another bullet, the third round begins Soon as the spinning stops, oh no, the game starts in Please, no IOUs, no markers for death Does anybody play? Anybody? Somebody? Anybody play?
You, you, next victim You, next to die You, you, next victim You, your turn to die You, come on, next victim You, your turn to die You, come on, next victim You, your turn to die You... die!
