作词 : Hitchcock | |
I stumbled with a friend of mine | |
To see a fiend before the shrine | |
With pointed eyes and furry breath | |
He summoned men of faith to death | |
Within a cloister full of ferns | |
An ivy twining round the urns | |
That brimmed with duckweed and with snails | |
The fiend, his mouth was full of nails | |
"Oh, come and see my swarming shrine!" | |
His little pointed eyes did shine | |
"For God is life and life is lust | |
And will be after you are dust!" | |
The shrine, it writhed with giblets and with hairs | |
And little tongues in flickering pairs | |
And throats that grew from pads of cheese | |
And then came out behind the knees | |
A pumpkin smiled and from its beak | |
A pair of scaly legs did peek | |
With squirming elvers for its hair | |
And from that midst an eye did stare | |
It winked as me as if to say | |
"You've seen enough, now go away!" | |
I sing of life, I sing of death | |
Until I might run out of breath | |
I stumbled with a friend of mine | |
To see a fiend before a shrine | |
With pointed eyes and septic ears | |
I knew this fiend did last for years |
