For our own amusement And to please the crowd So welcome to this circus Chant and cheer out loud The artists in this showpiece Did of course not volunteer Shivering from anxiety Trembling with fear Equipment ready All tools in grease Let then the play begins Start with the priests On the Judas Cradle Impaling seat Ride the wooden horse With weights on their feet Tied to the breaking wheels Fastened on the rack Stretching limbs till dislocation Snapping muscles, bones crack Lowered in water Dunk 'em till they drown Pump in laxatives While hanging upside down Turn on the thumbscrews Inject infection Pull out teeth and nails Electrocution Stirring up the cauldrons They are gonna boil Steamed, roasted, grilled and cooked Fried alive in oil Choirs of tormented screams Symphony in blood rain Ballet of the broken Conductors of pain
