My mind is a wonder land
A carnage-laden, psycho blaze
But Agnes, I remember
Those oft-repeated days
I’m coming for a visit
But I wanna play a game
Up the trellis and through the window
A phone call and a name
Hello, it’s me again
It’s Billy
It’s so very warm in here
Hello, it’s me again
Did you miss me?
I think I’ll stay a while this time
Your sister’s in the attic chilling
Chime of the clock, another killing
I like my Christmas black
Red and black
Blood red and black
Sightless corpses bear no witness
Whispers of sweet death between us
I like my Christmas black
Red and black
Blood red and black, oh yeah
I spy with my little eye
A secret we must keep inside
Don’t tell them, Agnes, little one
Don’t them what we did
Deep within the trees
Across the muck, a fetid breeze
Welcomes you to where you should not be
The swamp is unforgiving
No place for any living man
To wander, watched by those in shadowed green
Red eyes pierce into your soul
Raging pulse, fear takes control
Beware his acid touch
Searing into your flesh
Beware his acid touch
Beware the Man-Thing
Why the sudden stillness?
Listen for the sound of death
Closer now with every fading breath
Red eyes pierce into your soul
Raging pulse, fear takes control
Beware his acid touch
Searing into your flesh
Beware his acid touch
Beware the Man-Thing
Beware, those who know fear
Roaming through the GUE
Sword and lantern comfort me
Fucking grues where I can’t see
Dragons, trolls, and sorcery
Crystal skull and pot of gold
Among the nineteen that I stole
Another door, another hole
Danger shines, a faint blue glow
Snatch for me the wizard’s wand
Demon, help me journey on
My past life is forever gone
To seek the one who waits beyond
One-time adventurer
Now mighty conqueror
Underground emperor
I’m the fucking dungeon master
