The loins and the groins are then dispersed His carvin style is well rehearsed He stands and shouts All men be cursed (4x) And disagree it, well no one durst
He the best of cause of all the woist Best of cause of all the woist He stinks so bad his stones been chokin' Weepin' greenish drops In the room with the iron maiden And the torture never stops, torture Torture never stops Torture never stops, torture Torture never stops Flies all green and buzzin' In dungeon of despair Who are'll those people That is shut away down there Are they crazy Are they sainted Are they heroes someone painted Someone painted Are they -isms Later ornated Once they come they have been tainted Once they come they have been tainted Never been explained Since at first it was created But a dungeon and his kin' Require naught but lockin' in Of any anything thats been Could be a her but its probly a him Could be a her but its probly a him Its whats the deal were dealin' in Its whats the deal were dealin' in An he stinks so bad its hurt To the pearl and the piles of blast Any dungeon have a trailer Were the torture never stops, torture Torture never stops Torture never stops, torture Torture never stops Torture never stops, talkin' to you Torture never stops
