Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Satan is by far the kindest beast
Beast that ascended out of the bottom of a pit
Shall made war against them
And shall overcome them
And kill them
[Verse 2]
Incurable disease on the day of rest
I'm walkin' in water in a sea of incest
I've got the image of Jesus embedded in my chest
I can't leave home without my bulletproof vest
Killin' myself for the perfect honeymoon
Fightin' with scorpions tied round my neck
I hear the pitter-patter of a killer on the loose
Children use their fingers instead of words
[Verse 3]
Crosses burn on temples on Slaughter Avenue
It takes too much time for me to say I refuse
Time is diggin' graves for the chosen few
Children dig the graves of me and you
Describe the illness, I'll prescribe the cure
Start your two-day life on a two day vacation
Describe the illness, I'll prescribe the cure
Start your two-day life on a two day vacation
[Verse 4]
Spiritual cramp goin' for my ribs
Those gangsters totin' guns are shootin' spikes through my wrist
Children use their fingers instead of words
Fingers bury children under the boards
[Verse 5]
I can die a thousand times, but I'll always be here
With the powder skull secrets of forgotten years
The hangman's noose is drenched with bloodstained tears
My hands are the killers that confirm my fears
Jesus, won't You touch me? Come into my heart (Satan)
Where the hell are you when the fire starts?
[Verse 6]
I'm usin' my fingers instead of words
I'm usin' my fingers instead of words
[Verse 7]
I'm on a mission of the Father to reduce the gates of Hell
The ivory bone-eyed mother's flesh is starting to swell
I'm setting twenty-two tables for the funeral feast
Satan is by far the kindest beast
