Seanan McGuire - Oh, Michelle lyrics

Oh, Michelle, what the hell Were you thinkin' -- were you drinkin'? Did you really not believe things could go so, so wrong? Oh, Michelle, how the hell Can I tell your friends what happened? I can barely scratch the surface in this song When the aliens arrived, the planet still might have survived If they hadn't found a host in which to let their young mature Though they're dreadful and Cthonic, they're still weak when embryonic And our world has lots of dangers that they simply can't endure It was glowing, it was green, it was anything but clean It was the protoplasmic shelter for that foul invading race And what I don't understand is how you fell into their plan -- I can't think of one good reason why you put it in your face Oh, Michelle, what the hell... When you found that ancient tome concealed in your ancestral home It didn't take a second glance to know the damn thing was bad news For it was bound in human skin and written by the Devil's pen It was the sort of tempting target you'd do better to refuse Not a warning did you heed as you settled down to read And then a thousand deadly demons started rising through the floor Now I know that you're not dumb, but still, you told them they could come! And I'm not sure I want to be your buddy anymore Oh, Michelle, what the hell... When you said you'd be out late 'cause you were going on a date I said, 'just stay out of the cornfield, there's a k**er on the loose...' You didn't listen to a word, you thought my warnings were absurd And you might as well have slipped your own damn neck into the noose Now you tell me you're pursued by a k**er who's imbued With the deadly demon powers of dimensions with no name! Now you say he can't be k**ed until his mission is fulfilled And that mission is your d**h? Well, honey, I know who's to blame Oh, Michelle, what the hell Were you thinkin' -- were you drinkin'? Did you really not believe things could go so, so wrong? Oh, Michelle, how the hell Can I tell your friends what happened? I can barely scratch the surface in this song Oh, Michelle, what the hell Were you thinkin' -- were you drinkin'? Did you really not believe things could go so, so wrong? Oh, Michelle, how the hell Can I tell your friends what happened? I can barely scratch the surface in this song
