Lyrics

Will you be entertained by beast and knives?
Vital mentalisms will blow your minds!
Cthulu's red headed step child, quite the precocious babe
We like to keep it on the d.l. because our clientele prefers it that way
The seven legged sow will see you to the after-show
Don't you think the candelabra gives a pleasant glow?

Now may I present to you the basilisk?
Please don your goggles if you wish to resist
From the fiery depths of the planet's core
The never sleeping for want of eating unholy stench of the manticore

Please produce your access pass, no photographs please
Some of our guests are…how shall I say? hyperbolic v.i.p
There is a velvet room for the discriminating pack
Celebrities and tentacles regard the beast with two backs

The seven legged sow will see you to the after-show
Don't you think the candelabra gives a pleasant glow?

Paparazzi! world wide video debut!
Paparazzi! world wide video debut!
Paparazzi! world wide video debut!
Paparazzi! world wide video debut!

And just when you thought it could get no stranger
May I present the semblance of a scandanavian doppelganger
From the frozen depths of a forgotten fjord
The never sleeping for want of eating unholy stench of the manticore
