Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Anon, a giant monster roams
Creature of magic, not of home
He didst gobble each hag he found
Screams did echo, a chilling sound
With every wiccan he did devour
He'll grow in strength, in size and power
Until one day upon his back
He'll sprout wings, a fearsome pack
[Verse 2]
With each meal, Gila grows more
A biblical beast of ancient lore
With fire in belly
Flames in eyes
The beast rise to the highest skies
So beware, ye witches fair
Lest thee be spied by dragon-glare
It'll show no mercy, it is said
But devour thee, and leave thee for dead
Woo
[Refrain]
Gila, gila, gila
Gila, gila, gila
Gila, gila, gila
Gila monster
Woo
[Chorus]
I'm the gila, blood spiller, witch killer
Gila, gila
I'm the gila, card dealer, fate sealer
Gila, gila
I'm the gila, blood spiller, witch killer
Gila, gila
I'm the gila, Godzilla, guerilla
[Verse 3]
Diamondback climbing walls
Puncture wounds, torn and mauled
Raging monster, witch brawl
Backlash, battle cry, curve ball
Pushed and probed to the edge
No sense of forgiveness
I'm the gila, the blood spiller, the witch killer
I’m the gila
[Refrain]
Gila, gila, gila
Gila, gila, gila
Gila, gila, gila
Gila monster
Woo
Gila, gila
Gila, gila
Gila, gila
[Verse 4]
Turncoat projectile, idiot reptile
Born in the whirlwind, feral wonderkind
Petty feline summoned anew
Once a slave, master of you
Abomination, hallucination
Revenging sinner, witches for dinner
I'm the gila, the card dealer, the fate sealer
I'm the gila
[Chorus]
I'm the gila, blood spiller, witch killer
Gila, gila
I'm the gila, card dealer, fate sealer
Gila, gila
I'm the gila, blood spiller, witch killer
Gila, gila
I'm the gila, Godzilla, guerilla
[Verse 5]
Growing immensely and vastly in size
Summoned from the wicca to their demise
Sprouting wings, demonic features
Horny for bloodlust, lord of pagan creatures
Blacker than space, its eyes like distant suns
Devouring its disciples
Like mischievous sons
In the forest of my mind
Runs a torrent of fire
The real me beneath the liar
I bide my time to don my crown
Tasered bull, gore the clown
Compared to me, a pulsar is a lighter flame
Compared to mine, their wicca is a mere child's game
[Refrain]
Gila, gila, gila
Gila, gila, gila
Gila, gila, gila
Gila monster
[Verse 6]
My eyes feel like they’re made of light
Boötes void would be made bright
I will blind you in the hadal zone
Emperor of the abyss below
[Bridge]
Annihilation of
Planet Earth and the
Beginning of merciless damnation
[Outro]
Oh, regret, what a cloud of dread
With the cold hand of death ahead
Oh, desperation, what a mind killer
All hail king Gila
