Background
In the 80s & 90s cops, news anchors, and Geraldo Rivera were convinced Satanic Cults were regularly abducting and killing people all over the world. People went to jail, lives were ruined, and warning labels started showing up on rock records. That there was never any corroborating evidence didn't seem to bother anyone.

Lyrics:
You got someone to interrogate
Their stories are boring, it’s not going great
Tell them they gotta give you more
If they don’t give you demons don’t let them out the door
Maybe slip them some occult information
Let them imagine, invite speculation
Tell them they could never take it too far
Cuz you learned about this a one-day seminar

Satanic Panic!
Everyone needs a foe
You wanna feel right, you need someone to fight
And the devil is the devil you know
Satanic Panic!
Seek him and you shall find
That the devil is everywhere
Cuz he’s coming out of your mind (what, are you blind?!)

We’re terrified of corrupting youth
So afraid we don’t have time for the truth
So we take our fears and pin them all
On some sort of super secret global cabal
We’ll subject everything to our devil inspection
Movies and games, our kids’ record collection
And if we don’t find what we need in the lyrics
F*** it, play it backwards maybe then we can hear it

Satanic Panic!
See the world through this paranoid view
Dungeons and Dragons, that freak Bilbo Baggins
Hell, Yoda’s prob’ly in on it too
Satanic Panic!
He’ll show up if you just say his name
You sit on your sofa while Geraldo and Oprah
Pump hysteria straight to your brain

Bad things in this world aren’t a mystery
Take a look at all of human history
Looking for trauma? You won’t have far to search
You can find some caused by the catholic church
(or a wrestling program, or a gymnastics program. Look, I’m not saying all of those things, but some, and any is too many. And my point is it's not international devil cults or Hollywood billionaires underneath a pizza parlor. It's people. Sometimes people suck!)

Satanic Panic!
No evidence is ever found
Life is confusing but when you’re accusing
It feels like you’re on moral high ground
Satanic Panic!
It’ll leave your logic impaired
When stories are ominous something flips on in us
And we cant stop running scared
When stories are ominous something flips on in us
And we cant stop running scared
