ancient evils wake
and bleed between our lines
armageddon starfish
smashing satellites
my hair is on fire, my suit is hazmat
y'all might wanna handle that

the knocker at the portico 
nightmares at the gate
the worlds that we know
crumble in to hate
mass hysteria, dogs living with cats
y'all might wanna handle that

high crimes 
and low company
the gods of dark laughter
nominate their priest
go to his rally and have a coup d'etat
y'all might wanna handle that

ultimate nulifier
worked by a psuedopod
kiss the tiger-feet
of a strange-eyed golden god
wet market menus of orange horseshoe bat
y'all might wanna handle that

demoniacal caterwauling
hideous and dire
devil-laughter shadows
shining like witch-fire
sky bleeding red, the sun fades to black
y'all might wanna handle that
