American Gothic lyrics - Creature Feature

If there's nothing in the darkness
Then why do you lie awake?
Something in the shadows
Is keeping you from sleep
What are you afraid of?
Hiding in the night
Haunting figures appear
In the corner of your eye

Is death waiting to lash out
A ghost behind the breeze
A devil in the corn field
Or the beast among the trees
All these wretched raving ravens
All harbingers of your doom
Is the black cat crossing your path?
A prelude to your tomb

The sun falls like a guillotine
The dark comes alive with unsavory beings
Lock your door
Run and hide
Hold your breath
And you just might survive the night
Your safety's false
Your logic skewed
Now your complacent
Point of view
It'll be the true death of you

Are there creaks in the floorboards
When you're alone in your room?
Are the footsteps in the attic
With each rising of the moon
Strange sounds in the distance
Whatever could they be?
You're powerless to the deadly
Foul things lurking unseen

The sun falls like a guillotine
The dark comes alive with unsavory beings
Lock your door
And Run and hide
And Hold your breath
And you just might survive the night
Your safety's false
Your logic skewed
Now your complacent
Point of view
It'll be the true death of you

Chattering teeth
And Rattling bones
Out in the blackness
Your nightmares grow
Dreadful thoughts
Make your blood run cold
The witching hour
Has taken hold
Deep in the bleak
Recess of your soul
Is where the terror makes its home

If there's nothing in the darkness
Then why do you lie awake?
Something in the shadows
Is keeping you from sleep?

The Netherworld lyrics - Creature Feature

There exists a secret place
Heralded by death embrace
Soon you'll learn what's life after death
Soon after your corpse has been dressed
You can only come around
As you're buried six feet down
When your body functions have ceased
The maggots begin to feast

You'll be the life of the party
Way down at the cemetery

Far below the hollowed ground
Far from the safe lights of town
At home amongst the beatles and worms
Where the creepy crawlies will squirm
Unfortunately it isn't heaven
Fortunately it's not quite hell
It's a place of legend and myth
Where the reaper has gonna amiss

You'll be the life of the party
Way down at the cemetery

You will soon depart from the heart in your chest
Lalalalalalalalalalala
For its incessant beating will eventually end
Lalalalalalalalalalala
You wont need the flood of warm blood in your veins
Lalalalalalalalalalala
For every single crimson drop will surely be drained
Lalalalalalalalalalala

All your worthy posessions
And all your measly Convictions
Will be useless after the day you die
You wont need them on the other side
Now as your pulse subsides
Time has come to say your goodbyes

Saint Peter doesn't call your name
But your body does not drown in flames
You'll exist beyond creation
No hope for reincarnation
Once they carve out your headstone
and you're nothing left but a bag of bones
You'll recieve an invitation
to the life between the stations

You'll be the life of the party
Way down at the cemetery

A casket holds your lifeless form
That chunk of meat is no longer warm
Before all your insides begin to curd
You'll transcend into an Ether
Every lost soul migrates here
As the real world sheds a tear
A spirit not fit for ascension
A soul not fit for redemption

You'll be the life of the party
Way down at the cemetery

You will soon depart from the heart in your chest
Lalalalalalalalalalala
For its incessant beating will eventually end
Lalalalalalalalalalala
You wont need the flood of warm blood in your veins
Lalalalalalalalalalala
For every single crimson drop will surely be drained
Lalalalalalalalalalala

All your worthy posessions
And all your measly Convictions
Will be useless after the day you die
You wont need them on the other side
Now as your pulse subsides
Time has come to say your goodbyes

Well now, it seems you've been cursed to wander
Into the pitch black Yonder
You cannot be saved
Now your body lies in a cold, cold grave!

Well now, it seems you're off the beaten path
An exiled outcast
What lies ahead? Face the facts, son
You are, DEAD, DEAD, DEAD!

Well now, it seems you've come to a realization
That you're an abomination
So don't be sad, life after death isn't Bad, Bad, Bad!

Well now, I really must be on my way
There's other folks who've gone astray
It never ends, go forth and haunt
Make some enemies!...or friends!

You will soon depart from the heart in your chest
Lalalalalalalalalalala
For its incessant beating will eventually end
Lalalalalalalalalalala
You wont need the flood of warm blood in your veins
Lalalalalalalalalalala
For every single crimson drop will surely be drained
Lalalalalalalalalalala

All your worthy posessions
And all your measly Convictions
Will be useless after the day you die
You wont need them on the other side
Now as your pulse subsides
Time has come to say your goodbyes

It wants you! It gets you!
Firmly in its grip!
Sit back, don't fight!
Go along for the trip
Prepare to be scared
Right out of your skin
Welcome to the Netherworld where your new life begins!

Nearly Departed lyrics - Creature Feature

How dark was the night
When they were given new life
On the eve of our impending doom
The buried and forgotten
Molding and rotten
Began to stir in their tombs
Here in our darkest of hours
Prepare for the coming dread

Mindless walking things
What horror do they bring
Now their eternal peace is denied
The dearly departed
Are back where they started
And everything's far from alright

They have woken to devour
And this world will run red
The Earth has now grown sour
And it's spitting out the dead

Be warned, be still
Now you can hear them stirring
Clawing at the ceilings of their graves
They're here, they're dead
They're evil and they're hungry
Flesh and sinew and bone have all gone astray
No pulse, no brains
Now you can hear them digging
Corpses transformed into feral beasts
No soul, no hope
No conscience in their bloodlust
They have only come here for one thing
And that's to feast

The hordes of decay
Are crawling this way
And their pouring out into the streets
Lifeless hollow shells
Are escaping their cells
And their dying for something to eat

Here in our darkest of hours
Prepare for the coming dread
An army of death
With their fetid breath
And their skin dangling from their bones
There is no escape
From the most ghastly of fate
For this is how we must atone

They have woken to devour
And this world will run red
The Earth has now grown sour
And it's spitting out the dead

Be warned, be still
Now you hear them stirring
Clawing at the ceilings of their graves
They're here, they're dead
They're evil and they're hungry
Flesh and sinew and bone has all gone astray
No pulse, no brains
Now you can hear them digging
Corpses transformed into feral beasts
No soul, no hope
No conscience in their bloodlust
They have only come here for one thing
And that's to feast

The dead are awake
There's no escape
Tombs asunder
Released from slumber
Peaceful silence
Turned to violence
Will this affliction
Be our downfall
Reanimation, desecration
Death in no longer
The be all end all
Insurrection, resurrection
And out of the mouth of Hades
They have crawled

Be warned, be still
Now you hear them stirring
Clawing at the ceilings of their graves
They're here, they're dead
They're evil and they're hungry
Flesh and sinew and bone has all gone astray
No pulse, no brains
Now you can hear them digging
Corpses transformed into feral beasts
No soul, no hope
No conscience in their bloodlust
They have only come here for one thing
And that's to feast

Mad House lyrics - Creature Feature

Where did all this begin, my malicious tale
So rife with loathing, despair, and revenge
Picture this, a home could grow aware
Would this explain why I now live in fear

Sometimes the razor's dull and doesn't cut enough
Sometimes it definitely cuts too much

All of this aggression and fury inside me
Has seeped into the bones of this old house
Year by year, the rage was building up
And my short fuse has turned against me now

Sometimes the razor's dull and doesn't cut enough
Sometimes it definitely cuts too much
Sometimes the anger doesn't always manifest
Sometimes the anger's like a hornet's nest

I don't know how much I can take
I simply must get out of this mad house
Nowhere to hide, I can't escape
I really think it's gunning for me now
You can't imagine how I ache to toss a match
And burn the whole thing down
I pray in time it's blown away
To nothing but a big hole in the ground

Would I get an answer if these walls could talk
Would they explain why they now want me dead
Was it me? Am I a wicked man?
Was this monster born of my own two hands?

Some days it's tame, doesn't spill too much blood
Some days it's crazed and can never get enough
Some days it's still like the calm before a storm
Some days I wish I was never born

I don't know how much I can take
I simply must get out of this mad house
Nowhere to hide, I can't escape
I really think it's gunning for me now
You can't imagine how I ache to toss a match
And burn the whole thing down
I pray in time it's blown away
To nothing but a big hole in the ground

It's grown hungry, rather famished
Smelling blood and turning savage
Now it's learning, forming habits
Sentient and wreaking havoc
It is growing, gaining traction
Can't give up, I must take action
It is scheming, gaining reason
Making plans, becoming brazen
It is living, in existence
Cognizant without a conscience
Shaping tactics without lenience
Setting traps to restore balance now

Get me out of this mad house
I'll die in this mad house

Here There Be Witches lyrics - Creature Feature

Here there be witches on the edge of town
Cast them in water to see if they drown
Cleanse them with fire to burn them down
Bury their bones in hallowed ground.

Here there be witches on the edge of town,
Cast them in water to see if they drown
Cleanse them with fire to burn them down
Bury their bones in hallowed ground.
Here there be witches on the edge of town

Here there be witches on the edge of town
Can't you hear their cries?
Press them with stones to see if they lie
Sever their heads and gouge out their eyes
Recite your prayers in the dead of night.
Here there be witches on the edge of town
Can't you hear their cries?

Demons on the prowl we must make a stand
Black souled devil spawn inhabit this land
The unpure of heart will fall by your hand.
Here there be witches, save our
souls have been lost and the panic grows.
spells cast over blood and broken bones,
An evil stronger than we've ever known.
Here there be witches and all must die.

Here there be witches and they must be slain,
Cut of their flesh and they feel no pain.
Shackle their hands with sanctified chains,
Snip out their tongues before they speak your name
Here there be witches and they must be slain

Demons on the prowl we must make a stand
Black souled devil spawn inhabit this land
The unpure of heart will fall by your hand.
Here there be witches, save our
souls have been lost and the panic grows.
spells cast over blood and broken bones,
An evil stronger than we've ever known.
Here there be witches and all must die.

Unholy hexes, dark incantations
Our days are numbered, just sacrificial lambs
Depraved and corrupted agents of darkness
Chosen by the black mark of the beast.
Archaic volumes, forbidden writing
Blood ceremonies, Sermons for the damned
This curse must be lifted before the full moon
or we're all just meat for the feast

Demons on the prowl we must make a stand
Black souled devil spawn inhabit this land
The unpure of heart will fall by your hand.
Here there be witches, save our
souls have been lost and the panic grows.
spells cast over blood and broken bones,
An evil stronger than we've ever known.
Here there be witches and all must die.


Dem Bones lyrics - Creature Feature

Please don't be alarmed
I got the heart of a child
It's actually one of many
That I've slowly compiled
You have looks to die for
And a brain to match
I promise to remove it all
Without a scratch
Dem Bones!
Lest we forget
About your ravishing eyes
I'd love to see them both
Immaculately excised!
Now whatcha got hiding
Under all that meat?
I don't believe
That beauty's only skin deep

We all amass ghosts of our past
I display mine under glass
Perfection is fleeting
Commence the bleeding
And now I must propose
We Dig Dem Bones!

I bid you welcome, my guest
I have something to get off my chest
I am a fan of some degree of curiosities
Now now! Don't you fret
I have a spot for all of my guests
On the mantel or the bookcase
I can always make some space
All the beauty of out days
A shame its got to wither away
You'll live on, rest assured
And forever be preserved

From here on in
You shall never age
Formaldahyde
Will keep those effects at bay
A piece of my collection
Always on display
An object to admire
Like a lost monet
Everybody shuns their skeleton
And hides it from all the fun
Elbow grease and soap
Will remove your pulp
And it will polish like a stone
When I scrub Dem Bones!

I bid you welcome, my guest
I have something to get off my chest
I am a fan of some degree of curiosities
Now now! Don't you fret
I have a spot for all of my guests
On the mantel or the bookcase
I can always make some space
All the beauty of out days
A shame its got to wither away
You'll live on, rest assured
And forever be preserved

Well is there something wrong with me?
I prefer my friends deceased
Disassembled and put on display
Deep inside the hallowed halls
Your bones will decorate the walls
Safe from inevitable decay
You'll soon agree that life is better
Without all that pesky leather
Skin is overrated, can't you see?
Would you prefer to rot and mold?
In a grave that's damp and cold
Or join my esteemed menagerie
Or you could choose to just grow old
Journey into the unknown
Spend your last breath all alone
Death waiting to lash out
Or will you become history
Or a sight for all to see
You must believe when I decree
Its what's inside that counts

We all amass ghosts of our past
I display mine under glass
Perfection is fleeting
Commence the bleeding
And now I must propose
We Dig Dem Bones!
Bones! Bones! Bones!
Scrub Dem Bones!

Haunted lyrics - Creature Feature

Noises down in the basement
Voices up in the attic
Figures prowling the garden
Shadows lurking the parlor
Awake long after midnight
Objects move in the darkness
Haunted by nightly wailings
Harassed by something unclean

Do you have a problem
With the warm-blooded
Infected by the non-dead?
It's an infestation
Of troublesome mortals
Warm and perishable!

When you're no longer flesh-and-bone
The living still won't leave you alone
Just because your body's grown cold
Doesn't mean they can't possess your home
You had hoped for eternal peace
But the living still plague the deceased

House guests are falling asleep
Breathers: hostile and nasty
Creatures know something dreadful
Bleeders selfish and vile

Can you feel the presence
Swirling in the mire
Waiting to expire?
Can you feel the bound souls
Swirling in the ether
Growing like a fever?

When you're no longer flesh-and-bone
The living still won't leave you alone
Just because your body's grown cold
Doesn't mean they can't possess your home
You had hoped for eternal peace
But the living still plague the deceased

When you're no longer flesh-and-bone
The living still won't leave you alone
Just because your body's grown cold
Doesn't mean they can't possess your home
You had hoped for eternal peace
But the living still plague the deceased

Spill Your Guts lyrics - Creature Feature

We're frail
So frail and weak
Our body's frail
We're all just meat
So easily scarred
So easily beat
It doesn't take much
For us to spring a leak
It doesn't take much
To perish in your sleep
We're soft
Soft and smooth
Just beef and sauce
Perfect for stew
So easily squashed
So easily bruised
It doesn't take much
To strip us to the bone
It doesn't take much
Work to make us croak

We're all marching in the same parade
Biding our time in this silly masquerade
We're all headed steadfast to the grave
With all the fuss, we'll soon be dust
And then you'll spill your guts!
Will you burn out?
Or will you fade away?
Will you die young?
Or within old age
We're all dying
To make it out unscathed
With all the fuss, we'll soon be dust
And soon you'll spill your guts!

We're doomed
From the start
We're all bruised
Did I mentioned scarred?
So easily strewn
So easily marked
It doesn't take much
To tear us apart
It doesn't take much
Force to stop our hearts
We're [?]
Prone to leak
[?] facades
Rought with decease
So easily clawed
So easily freed
It doesn't take much
Stress to make us crack
It doesn't take much
Strength to break our backs

We're all marching in the same parade
Biding our time in this silly masquerade
We're all headed [?] to the grave
With all the fuss, we'll soon be dust
And then you'll spill your guts!
Will you burn out?
Or will you fade away?
Will you die young?
Or within old age
We're all dying
To make it out unscathed
Why all the fuss? we'll soon be dust
And soon you'll spill your guts!

A knife in the back from a friend
Or a bump on the head?
A ructured appendix
Or maybe a virus instead
A clot in your veins
Or the voice of a snake in the grass
A chest full of blood clots
Or maybe a slip in the bath

We're all marching in the same parade
Biding our time in this silly masquerade
We're all headed [?] to the grave
With all the fuss, we'll soon be dust
And then you'll spill your guts!
Will you burn out?
Or will you fade away?
Will you die young?
Or wither in old age
We're all dying
To make it out unscathed
Why all the fuss? we'll soon be dust
And soon you'll spill your guts!

Wake The Dead lyrics - Creature Feature

Dressed in black, Join the pack
Through the dark we have embarked
Endless night, shunned by light
Condemned to earth we will have rebirth

Seances and ceremonies
Behind closed doors
Abandoned words
And ancient symbols covers the floor
Singing songs
And burning candles
In the Graveyard
We must eradicate
This vicious killer at large
Its not too late to stop this
As we journey into darkness
Where Gods fear to tred
The time has come to be renewed
And now before the night is through
We'll wake the dead!

Dead inside, breathe new life!
Free your bones from the catacombs
Take control of your soul
The heavens weep as you rise from sleep

Seances and ceremonies
Behind closed doors
Abandoned words
And ancient symbols covers the floor
Singing songs
And burning candles
In the Graveyard
We must eradicate
This vicious killer at large
Its far too late to stop this
As we journey into darkness
Where Gods fear to tred
The time has come to be renewed
And now before the night is through
We'll wake the dead!

Myth stone and alchemy
Wormwood and witchery
Coffin nails and effigys
Clairvoyance and prophecies
Graveyard dust and sorcery
Step inside and face the scene
The flame is quickly growing dim
The air is quickly growing thin
Something stirs from deep within
Underneath your skin
The earth begins to crack and grow
The wind begins to howl and moan
And now you are not alone
The ending is here

Its far too late to stop this
As we journey into darkness
Where Gods fear to tred
The time has come to be renewed
And now before the night is through
We'll wake the dead!

A Feast For The Worms lyrics - Creature Feature

My heart is filled with nails and broken glass
The world will celebrate when I'm gone at last
Revere the end of my years
For soon I will be dead
For soon I will be dead

All the angels in heaven
Curse my name
All the demons down in hell
Will stoke the flames
So strike up the band
Strike up the matches
Pour kerosene all over my casket
The world is safe
Now here in my absence
A cancer removed into the tomb I go

My soul is made of rot and razor blades
Raise the day that I'm lowered in my grave
Revel for the devil knows I'm on my way
Knows I'm on my way

All the angels in heaven
Curse my name
All the demons down in hell
Will stoke the flames
So strike up the band
Strike up the matches
Pour kerosene all over my casket
The world is safe
Now here in my absence
A cancer removed into the tomb I go

I was born bad
And I will die bad
But in your heart
I live on
I made a mark
On this world they can't cut out

All the angels in heaven
Curse my name
All the demons down in hell
Will stoke the flames
So strike up the band
Strike up the matches
Pour kerosene all over my casket
The world is safe
Now here in my absence
A cancer removed into the tomb I go

"It Was A Dark And Stormy Night..." (2011)

It Was A Dark And Stormy Night... lyrics - Creature Feature

These hands
They shake
I swear I must be cursed
This brain
It aches
Any moment it might burst

Save your soul
Don't stop, they're gaining on you
Heads will roll
Don't quit, they're gonna' get you

This pulse
It speeds
My nerves have all been fried
This heart
It beats
Forever out of time

Save your soul
Don't stop, they're gaining on you
Heads will roll
Don't quit, they're gonna' get you

Fade in to an empty road
Rain is pouring on the scene
Lightning strikes across the sky
Pray this is a hellish dream

Apparitions manifest
Poltergeists and entities
Unseen malignant threats
They are catching up to me

It was a dark and stormy night
Pins and needles down your spine

Shadows are alive with shapes
Nameless beasts of long lost lore
The forest stirs, ready to pounce
Feel the darkness at your door

Ethereal revenants
Phantasms and deities
Bloodthirsty spawns of hell
Try to get their claws in me

It was a dark and stormy night
Pins and needles down your spine

Dead eyes
They stare
From out beyond the trees
The sound
It stings
Like a nest of angry bees

Save your soul
Don't stop, they're gaining on you
Heads will roll
Don't quit, they're gonna' get you

Bared teeth
They gleam
Approaching from behind
Those claws
Dig deep
The results are most unkind

Save your soul
Don't stop, they're gaining on you
Heads will roll
Don't quit, they're gonna' get you

Fade in to an empty road
Rain is pouring on the scene
Lightning strikes across the sky
Pray this is a hellish dream

Apparitions manifest
Poltergeists and entities
Unseen malignant threats
They are catching up to me

It was a dark and stormy night
Pins and needles down your spine

Shadows are alive with shapes
Nameless beasts of long lost lore
The forest stirs, ready to pounce
Feel the darkness at your door

Ethereal revenants
Phantasms and deities
Bloodthirsty spawns of hell
Try to get their claws in me

It was a dark and stormy night
Pins and needles down your spine

Be careful or you soon shall find
That this life has long passed you by
Rigor mortis it seems
Has crept up your sleeves
And dried up your quivering mind

Be cautious or you soon shall find
The angels have long left your side
Your body's grown cold
Flesh drips from bones
And memory buried in time

Do not
Let those
Fiends
Take you alive

Fade in to an empty road
Rain is pouring on the scene
Lightning strikes across the sky
Pray this is a hellish dream

Apparitions manifest
Poltergeists and entities
Unseen malignant threats
They are catching up to me

It was a dark and stormy night
Pins and needles down your spine

Shadows are alive with shapes
Nameless beasts of long lost lore
The forest stirs, ready to pounce
Feel the darkness at your door

Ethereal revenants
Phantasms and deities
Bloodthirsty spawns of hell
Try to get their claws in me

It was a dark and stormy night
Pins and needles down your spine

Dr. Sawbones lyrics - Creature Feature

There goes Dr. Sawbones
Creeping down the alleyway
Looking for a victim
The game of chance is underway
He is biding his time
Fleeting through the cabarets
Searching for a subject
To bring about their Judgement Day

There goes Dr. Sawbones
Slipping through the underbrush
Peering through your windows
Conspiring for your blood
He is stalking the night
Just as happy as can be
Waltzing through the graveyard
Praying for an entity

[Chorus:]
There is this longing for blood
That I am trying to quench
There is this yearning for pain
That is forever entrenched
There is this spot on my soul
And it will never come clean
There is this flaw in my brain
That is far from serene

There goes Dr. Sawbones
Readying his instruments
Making sure they're razor sharp
They have dark deeds to dispense

He is raising the stakes
Broadening his dossier
In this game of cat and mouse
He will take your breath away

There goes Dr. Sawbones

Strolling through the dirty streets
Judging which soul to confront
He is haunting the town
Drifting through the corridors
Disappearing in the fog
Watch your back lest you be gored

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

Oh look, here comes the doctor now
Dressed to the nines and on the prowl
An attaché case in his hands and dark thoughts of devious plans


He's the perfect picture
Of a charismatic gentleman
Magnetic and debonair
Chivalrous and spirited

But once he's got you in his sights
That's when the delirium ignites
The madness quickly takes control
And villainy engulfs his soul

Pray you never cross his path
Steal a glance and incite his wrath
His dashing demeanour gives away and depravity comes out to play

The House Of Myth lyrics - Creature Feature

There stands a dark monument
Born of unfortunate events
A house of myth rumored near
A lost road leading north of here

I tried to warn you, I swear I did

Tenanted by fear and gloom
Despair calls out from every room
Walls that drip with hopelessness
Filled with an air of malevolence

I tried to warn you, I swear I did

Abandon hope
All who enter here
The ones who ignored
Simply disappeared

They're gonna have to
Scrape you off the walls
That's even if they
Find your body at all

They're gonna have to
Scrape you off the walls
That's even if they
Find your body at all

All that you will find, is hell waiting inside

A blackness lives inside this place
An evil you'll learn to embrace
It will lure and calm your doubt
Eat you alive and spit you out

I tried to warn you, I swear I did

Abandon hope
All who enter here
The ones who ignored
Simply disappeared

They're gonna have to
Scrape you off the walls
That's even if they
Find your body at all

They're gonna have to
Scrape you off the walls
That's even if they
Find your body at all

All that you will find, is hell waiting inside

Inside of this place
Death will not come quickly

It won't leave a trace
Death will not come quickly

It is far too late
Death will not come quickly

You have sealed your fate
Death will not come quickly

All that you will find, is hell waiting inside

Mommy's Little Monsters lyrics - Creature Feature

What's that hiding inside the closet
Shrouded in darkness
It's Mommy's little monsters

What's that huddled down by the bedpost
Waiting in repose
It's Mommy's little monsters

I can hear them slithering inside the walls
I can hear them shuffling out in the hall

What's that lurking down in the basement
Wailing in torment
It's Mommy's little monsters

What's that chewing up through the floorboards
Vile and abhorred
It's Mommy's little monsters

I can hear them slithering inside the walls
I can hear them shuffling out in the hall

Little heathens, blasphemous creatures
Nasty vermin, every single one
They want your blood, they need to feed
And now Mother has brought them a treat

What's that howling up in the attic
Wild and frantic
It's Mommy's little monsters

What's that scratching outside the window
Concealed in shadows
It's Mommy's little monsters

I can hear them slithering inside the walls
I can hear them shuffling out in the hall

What's that looming behind the curtains
Dripping in crimson
It's Mommy's little monsters

What's that creeping across the bedroom
Hell bent to consume
It's Mommy's little monsters

I can hear them slithering inside the walls
I can hear them shuffling out in the hall

Little heathens, blasphemous creatures
Nasty vermin, every single one
They want your blood, they need to feed
And now Mother has brought them a treat

Their existence is wrong
All humanity's gone
Pray you survive until dawn
Dinner is served and now blood has been drawn

Little heathens, blasphemous creatures
Nasty vermin, every single one
They want your blood, they need to feed
And now Mother has brought them a treat

The Unearthly Ones lyrics - Creature Feature

Here we are
The monsters in your closet
Sure as hell
You should be afraid

We are coming for you
We are coming for you

We exist
The grim haunters of houses
We'll frighten
And steal your breath away

We are coming for you
We are coming for you

We are coming for you now

Beware the bumps in the night
The shadows on your wall
The nightmares of your youth

Believe in the bogeyman
Hiding beneath your bed
Just waiting to break loose

Don't forget
Your fear of spooks and goblins
Sure as hell
We'll still sneak up on you

We are coming for you
We are coming for you

Take cover
From all the creeps and ghoulies
You never
Know what we're planning next

We are coming for you
We are coming for you

We are coming for you now

Beware the bumps in the night
The shadows on your wall
The nightmares of your youth

Believe in the bogeyman
Hiding beneath your bed
Just waiting to break loose

The unearthly ones scratched and clawed
Their way out of the grave
Called forth by the fear
Of the children lying awake

Foul and grotesque
And don't let their whispers possess
Or your life's done
And you'll join the unearthly ones

Time to flee
An angry mob approaches
Sure as hell
They want our hides

They are coming for us
They are coming for us

An army
Of pitchforks and torches
They won't stop
Until they hunt us down

They are coming for us
They are coming for us

They are coming for us now

Beware the bumps in the night
The shadows on your wall
The nightmares of your youth

Believe in the bogeyman
Hiding beneath your bed
Just waiting to break loose

Grave Robber At Large lyrics - Creature Feature

There is something strange down by the cemetery
Emptying the graves left and right
Ghastly schemes and ghoulish undertakings
Underneath the pale moonlight

Curse the day they invented the crematory
What a foolish waste of potential sales
It’s a damn shame to discard inventory
Think outside the box if all else fails

Death is my business and business is good

There’s a grave robber at large
Ripping bodies from hallowed ground
Desecrate those who rest in peace
There’s profit to be made from the recent deceased

Skeletal remains are safe in the ossuary
They’re quite stale and not worth a dime
Don’t think me a fiend, this is strictly monetary
Fortune calls and I’ll answer this time

In this occupation timing is instrumental
A matter of hours can plummet the price
The fact it’s a crime is simply incidental
Freshness is key, nothing else will suffice

Death is my business and business is good

There’s a grave robber at large
Ripping bodies from hallowed ground
Desecrate those who rest in peace
There’s profit to be made from the recent deceased

Midnight meetings inside the graveyard
Crunching numbers, breaking the earth
I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty
Even if things seem a bit perverse

Though these deeds weigh heavy on my soul
I will no doubt sleep perfectly sound
While you struggle to keep your conscience
A garden of riches rots in the ground

Death is my business and business is good

There’s a grave robber at large
Ripping bodies from hallowed ground
Desecrate those who rest in peace
There’s profit to be made from the recent deceased

Death is my business and business is good

A Fate Worse Than Death lyrics - Creature Feature

Extinction will catch up to you
And there is nothing you can do
What fate surely waits
Maybe eaten by wolves
In your sleep

Your time is quickly running out
It's pointless to worry and pout
What fate surely waits
Maybe dying of thirst
Lost at sea

Don't worry your head off
There's always a fate worse than death
Pray you go quietly
Quick and not violently

No need to worry
We all meet our end someday
Pray you go silently
Into the bleak dead of night

You'll soon be dead as a doornail
What stories will your loved ones tell
What fate surely waits
Maybe drowned like a rat
In a latrine

You'll soon be pushing up daises
Laid in a pine box six foot deep
What fate surely waits
Maybe roasted and served
As a cuisine

Don't worry your head off
There's always a fate worse than death
Pray you go quietly
Quick and not violently

No need to worry
We all meet our end someday
Pray you go silently
Into the bleak dead of night

When you meet you maker
Will you still be in one piece
When you take your last bow
Will you fall down on your knees

When you cash in your chips
Will you have your pistol drawn
When the pale horse appears
Will you still have your boots on

Don't worry your head off
There's always a fate worse than death
Pray you go quietly
Quick and not violently

No need to worry
We all meet our end someday
Pray you go silently
Into the bleak dead of night

Fodder For The Elder Gods lyrics - Creature Feature

What endless terrors do the heavens hide
Blacker than pitch and older than time
Forever slumbering primordial slime
The very heart of evil thundering inside

There was a stirring in the clouds at night
A faint rumbling in the star-less skies
And the horizon came alive with fire
Then came the beasts from the celestial mire

If it bleeds
Then maybe we can kill it
If it breathes
Then maybe we stand a chance

The old ones have come to wreak havoc
The crawling chaos will consume our planet
Out of space the elder gods descend
We all are doomed the lurking fear has awakened

For countless eons they have drifted free
In the dark and barren planetary seas
Unaware of the new human disease
Until the day their ancient hibernation ceased

From the mist beyond the wall of sleep
The dreadful shadows from out of time creep
The winter of our lives, the chill runs deep
The harvest is seasoned and ready for the reap

If it bleeds
Then maybe we can kill it
If it breathes
Then maybe we stand a chance

The old ones have come to wreak havoc
The crawling chaos will consume our planet
Out of space the elder gods descend
We are all doomed the lurking fear has awakened

Something unnatural has returned to this place
An archaic consuming color out of space
From beyond the cosmos a deadly presence waits
The blink of an eye comes the end to our fledgling race

The old ones have come to wreak havoc
The crawling chaos will consume our planet
Out of space the elder gods descend
We are all doomed the lurking fear has awakened

What horrors impend
With a whimper comes the end

Bad Blood lyrics - Creature Feature

I've got bad blood
I've done bad things
How can I control myself
If I enjoy these nasty habits

I can hear the voices stirring
All the awful things they're planning

I don't play nice
I don't give in
Was it nature? Was it nurture?
Maybe I was just born evil.

It's no use I can't control it
Maybe it's a sign not to quit

I can guarantee that we'll do evil things
The only way that you can stop me now
is if you put me in the ground
Somewhere I'll never be found

I am most disturbed
I deserve to be interred
Don't you dare turn your back on me
I'll attack without a warning sign
Terror lurks in the night

I've got nine lives
I've done grim acts
No emotion
I've been guilty
No defenses

I can hear the voices stirring
All the awful things they're planning

I don't feel pain
I don't back down
My thoughts are filled with cruel intentions
Maybe my conscience is possessed

It's no use I can't control it
Maybe it's a sign not to quit

I can guarantee that we'll do evil things
The only way that you can stop me now
is if you put me in the ground
Somewhere I'll never be found

I am most disturbed
I deserve to be interred
Don't you dare turn your back on me
I'll attack without a warning sound
Terror lurks in the night

I am not one for this world
And I long for the day that my life snuffs out

With all these sinister plots
And my ghoulish transgressions

Cut me down
In a hail of bullets
Remove my head to make sure I don't get up
To be safe just burn my body
Before they consecrate me

I can guarantee that we'll do evil things
The only way that you can stop me now
is if you put me in the ground
Somewhere I'll never be found

I am most disturbed
and deserve to be interred
Don't you dare turn your back on me
I'll attack without a warning sound
Terror lurks in the night

One Foot In The Grave lyrics - Creature Feature

Let me tell you a tragedy that will
Surely frighten you out of your skin
There once was a god-fearing man
who unfortunately woke up stone cold dead

I've got one foot in the grave
And in its shackles I'm its slave
And here I lie
With all the night
The pearly gates turned me away
In this sarcophagus I lay
No longer dead
but I am bored of breath

I can feel the cold night air
I can feel the decay there
I can feel it in the wind
In death I have been born again.

Gather round to hear
a bleak tale
In harrowing detail
of the utmost suffering

There once was a bizarre outcast
a bedeviled lost soul
searching for his end

The grim reaper snuck up on me
When I was most unsuspecting
with scythe in hand
and my life in remand

The heavens did dismiss of me
they spit me out and let me be
I am deceased
But I can't rest in peace

I can feel the cold night air
I can feel the decay there
I can feel it in the wind
In death I have been born again

In truth, I fear this life appears
in death exiled from eternity
So it appears this life I fear
In death ostracized from mortality

I've got one foot in the grave
And in its shackles I'm its slave
And here I lie
With all the night
The pearly gates turned me away
In this sarcophagus I lay
No longer dead
but I am bored of breath

I can feel the cold night air
I can feel the decay there
I can feel it in the wind
In death I have been born again

The Greatest Show Unearthed lyrics - Creature Feature Lyrics

Ladies and gentlemen!
Boys and ghouls!
Step right up!
Behind this curtain lies a ghastly concoction of..
Delight! Horror! Fantasy and terror!
Your every wish is our command!
Your every whimsical desire brought to life!
But I'm warning you..
There's always a price!
Welcome to the greatest show unearthed!

The dark carnival is in town
You better be ready
Just follow the parade
Of dancing skeletons
Full of ghoulish delights
Around every corner
Don't tell your parents you're here
They will soon be mourners

Welcome to the lower birth
The greatest show unearthed
We appear without a sound
The darkest show around
We will leave you in a daze
Madness, murder, dismay
We will disappear at night
With blood on the concrete

I will be your ticket taker
Come inside, it's a dream
Enter the fun house of mirrors
No one can hear you scream
We can supply anything
That your heart desires
But the consequences
Will surely be dire

Welcome to the lower birth
The greatest show unearthed
We appear without a sound
The darkest show around
We will leave you in a daze
Madness, murder, dismay
We will disappear at night
With blood on the concrete

Come inside for the ride
Your deepest, darkest fears

The best night of your life
You're never leaving here

The unknown
The unseen
Is what you're gonna find

Witness this
Witness that
Until you lose your mind

Welcome to the lower birth
The greatest show unearthed
We appear without a sound
The darkest show around
We will leave you in a daze
Madness, murder, dismay
We will disappear at night
With blood on the concrete

Buried Alive lyrics - Creature Feature Lyrics

I forever dream within a dream
Of a certain city in the sea
As I walk the valley of unrest
Behind this mask of crimson death

I long for a loss of breath
And a most dire predicament
Murders in the rue morgue
Silence and shadow's what I adore

I can’t explain just how it feels
The thought of my premature burial
Inside this oblong box I lie
With the hopes I’ll be buried alive

The oval portrait upon the wall
Will someday cause this house to fall
The power of words left unsaid
As I join the spirits of the dead

I can't explain just how it feels
The thought of my premature burial
Inside this oblong box I lie
With the hopes I’ll be buried alive

Well, I’m the man who's used up
Washed up
Bricked up

Descent into maelstrom
Bedlam
Redrum

Bet the devil my head
Misled
Bloodshed

Heart under the floorboards
Beats for
Lenore
Nevermore

I can’t explain just how it feels
The thought of my premature burial
Inside this oblong box I lie
With the hopes I’ll be buried alive

Aim For The Head lyrics - Creature Feature Lyrics

Can I pose a question?
How do you kill what is dead?
I just shoot from the hip
And I aim for the head

He used to be your friend
That was another life
With a single bullet
We're gonna blow his mind

With a loaded gun
And a steady hand
We just might live through this (Aim for the head)
If you kill the brain
Then you kill the ghoul
And its motor functions (Aim for the head)

Nail up all the windows
They're gonna settle the score
Make sure no chamber is bare
They're right outside the door

This is a test of your strength
And your will to survive
If you give up now
They're gonna eat you alive

With a loaded gun
And a steady hand
We just might live through this (Aim for the head)
If you kill the brain
Then you kill the ghoul
And his motor functions (Aim for the head)

Listen to me
Listen to me
Listen to me, save yourself

There is no more
There is no more
There is no more room in hell

I will help you
I will help you
I will help you understand

Come with me now
Come with me now
Come with me now, take my hand

We can make it
We can make it
We can make it through this

With a loaded gun
And a steady hand
We just might live through this (Aim for the head)
If you kill the brain
Then you kill the ghoul
And his motor functions (Aim for the head)

Is the end of the world
Or just the start of the fight
You better heed my warning
And watch out for their bite

They have a taste for your flesh
And for your blood they will crave
They're coming for us now
From beyond the grave

Six Foot Deep lyrics - Creature Feature Lyrics

I bury the dead, yeah
Secret place in my head
Shovel underneath my bed
Caught with my hands red

Midnight is creeping in
My tightrope is wearing thin
Watching the devil grin
Darkness, it waits within

All I've ever known
Is the unknown
In my haunted home
With the rattling bones
In my heart of stone
Where the ghosts roam
When the walls bleed
I will bury you deep

I will bury you deep
Six foot deep
Six foot

Walk to the boneyard
Wind is blowing so hard
Carrying the death card
Mind is broken into shards

In this place that I despise
Something therein evil lies
Planning out my grim demise
Someday we all shall die

All I've ever known
Is the unknown
In my haunted home
With the rattling bones
In my heart of stone
Where the ghosts roam
When the walls bleed
I will bury you deep

I will bury you deep
Six foot deep
Six foot

A Gorey Demise lyrics - Creature Feature Lyrics

Alright, everybody sit down, quiet down, listen up.
I brought you all here to recite the annual obituaries.
Like every year we'll start with A and end with Z.
Alright, is the band ready?
Ready.
Alright, hit it Boyles.
One, and a two

A is for Amber who drowned in a pool
B is for Billy was eaten by ghouls

D is for Daniel derailed on a train
E is for Eric who's buried alive
F is for Frank who was stabbed through the eye
G is for Greg who died in the womb
H is for Heather who was sealed in a tomb

One by one we bite the dust
We kick the bucket and begin to rust
Give up the ghost when your number's up
We all fall down

Ashes to ashes, bones to paste
You whither away in your resting place
Eternity in a wooden case
We all fall down

I is for Issac who lost his front brakes
J is for Johnny, was bitten by snakes
K is for Kimmy was shot in the head
L is for Larry who bled and bled
M's for Marie who was burned to a crisp
N is for Nick who was pummeled by fists
O is for Olive who lived life too fast
P is for Pat who swallowed some glass

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

Alrighty lads, altogether now:

One by one we bite the dust
We kick the bucket and begin to rust
Give up the ghost when your number's up
We all fall down

Ashes to ashes, bones to paste
You whither away in your resting place
Eternity in a wooden case
We all fall down

Q is for Quentin who took the wrong trail
R is for Raina who rotted in jail
S is for Steve who was shot by a bow
T is for Tory who froze in the snow
U is for Urich who was trampled by hooves
V is for Vanessa who fell off a roof
W is for Will who was hit by a car
X is for Xavier who sunk in the tar
Y is Yessy who fell from a plane
Z is for Zack who simply went insane

Look To The Skies lyrics - Creature Feature Lyrics

Look to the skies
Look to the skies
Look to the skies
Look to the skies

Something mysterious falls to the earth
Maybe a blessing, maybe a curse
At first we thought they meant us no harm
No sense of urgency, no cause for alarm
The brightest flash begins our darkest of days
Something sinister appears in the haze

We better face the facts
The plan's been hatched
Duplicate the perfect match
Then body snatch
We better face the facts
The plan's been hatched
Duplicate the perfect match
Then body snatch

Look to the skies
Look to the skies

In our sleep is when they enter our minds
Do their damage then they sever the lines
Overnight absorb our body and soul
With no emotion, no need for hope
The one flaw they underestimate
They can't get us if we stay awake

We better face the facts
The plan's been hatched
Duplicate the perfect match
Then body snatch
We better face the facts
The plan's been hatched
Duplicate the perfect match
Then body snatch

Beyond the surface, the plan is more devious
So be on the lookout for carbon copies of us
Beyond the surface the plan is more devious
So be on the lookout for carbon copies of us

First you give up
And then you give in
First you give up
And then you give in
First you give up
And then you give in
First you give up
And then you give in
First you give up
And then you give in
First you give up
And then you give in
First you give up
And then you give in
First you give up
And then you give in

How To Serve Man lyrics - Creature Feature Lyrics

Ounce for ounce
Blood for blood
You get a taste and it’s never enough

Pound for pound
Eye for an eye
You get the thirst and it never runs dry

Piece by piece
Bite by bite
Relish the flavor and swallow your plight

Inch by inch
Slice by slice
Dress your guest and season with vice

Let me clarify before we begin
Am I getting under your skin?
Your disposition seems a trifle bland
It's time you learned how to serve man

Pinch by pinch
Dash by dash
Braise the passe and devour the past

Day by day
Night by night
Prepare the course and savor the spice

Let me clarify before we begin
Am I getting under your skin?
Your disposition seems a trifle bland
It's time you learned how to serve man

Let me clarify before we begin
Am I getting under your skin?
Your disposition seems a trifle bland
It's time you learned how to serve man

Bound And Gagged lyrics - Creature Feature Lyrics

Gotta run away
Try to get away
Gotta run away
Try to get away

If you ever want to see your daughter again
And every little thing goes according to plan
Don't do anything that you think you'll regret
Or you'll have to check the mail for your daughter’s head

I'm keeping her bound and gagged
Her clothes soaked in gasoline
Hands tied behind her back
Where no one can hear her

Gotta run away
Try to get away
Gotta run away
Try to get away

Listen up now, I won't repeat myself
This is how everything is gonna go down
When you make the drop, you better be by yourself
It could be detrimental to your daughter’s health

I'm keeping her bound and gagged
Her clothes soaked in gasoline
Hands tied behind her back
Where no one can hear her

Scream
Scream

You can run, but you can't hide
You can run, but you can't hide from me

I'm keeping her bound and gagged
Her clothes soaked in gasoline
Hands tied behind her back
Where no one can hear her

Scream
Scream

The Meek Shall Inherit The Earth lyrics - Creature Feature Lyrics

Our story starts so very, very deep underground
Unaware of the legions they are building down there
Then comes the sound, a shrill signal loud enough to drown
The time has come, Mother Nature’s now holding the gun

Well once you enter the hive
You'll never make it out alive
It's been devised
So no human being will survive
Could it be worse
I think they've acquired a thirst
We claimed it first
Now the meek shall inherit the earth

Kill one and two more will take it's place
Withdraw, the city's under martial law
A nameless horror, like nothing we've encountered before
The time has come for mankind to be undone

They're coming up
You're going down
They're coming up
You're going down

Well once you enter the hive
You'll never make it out alive
It's been devised
So no human being will survive
Could it be worse
I think they've acquired a thirst
We claimed it first
Now the meek shall inherit the earth

Welcome to annihilation
Devastation across the nation
Welcome to eternal damnation
A revelation void of salvation
Welcome to extermination
Abomination through mutation
Welcome to the aberration
Transformation then liberation

They're coming up
You're going down
They're coming up
You're going down

Well once you enter the hive
You'll never make it out alive
It's been devised
So no human being will survive
Could it be worse
I think they've acquired a thirst
We claimed it first
Now the meek shall inherit the earth

A Corpse In My Bed lyrics - Creature Feature Lyrics

Is it wrong to have a corpse in my bed
I don't think so, even if she is dead
Is it disturbing, is it a crime
She's been expired for quite some time

Couldn't let her repose underground
A feast for worms inside her burial mound
Consecrated by the powers above
We fit like a severed hand in glove

My only complaint's the perfume she wears
A mix of rancid milk and moldy pears
I'm just scared, don't want to be alone
Even if she's just skin and bone

Her skin is dry and body full of dust
One day I'm afraid she just might combust
I could never think of leaving her side
Even though it's been years since she died

My only complaint's the perfume she wears
A mix of rancid milk and moldy pears
I'm just scared, don't want to be alone
Even if she's just skin and bone

Let me reiterate what has been said
Is it really that wrong to have a corpse in my bed
I'm just scared, don't want to be alone
Even if she's just skin and bone
