Lyrics

[Instrumental]
Solo: Poland
Solo: Mustaine
[Verse 1]
Hey, I don't feel so good
Something's not right
Something's coming over me
What the fuck is this?
[Instrumental]
Solo: Mustaine
[Verse 2]
Killer, intruder, homicidal man
If you see me coming, run fast as you can
A blood-thirsty demon who's stalking the street
I hack up my victims like pieces of meat
Blood-thirsty demon, sinister fiend
Bludgenous slaughters, my evil deed
[Verse 3]
My hammer's a cold piece of blood lethal steel
I grin while you writhe with the pain that I deal
Swinging the hammer, I hack through their heads
Deviant defilers, you're next to be dead
I unleash my hammer with sadistic intent
Pounding, surrounding, slamming through your head
[Verse 4]
Their bodies convulse in agony and pain
I mangle their face till no features remain
A blade for the butchering, I cut them to shreds
First take out the organs, then cut off the head
The remains of their flesh now sop under my feet
One more bloody massacre, the murder's complete
I seek to dismember, a sadist fiend
And bloodbaths are my way of getting clean
[Verse 5]
I lurk in the alleys, wait for the kill
I have no remorse for the blood that I spill
A merciless butcher who lives underground
I'm out to destroy and I will cut you down
Cut you down
I see you and I'm waiting for Black Friday
[Instrumental]
Solo: Poland
[Verse 6]
Turn me loose
Killer, intruder, homicidal man
If you see me coming, run fast as you can
A blood-thirsty demon who's stalking the street
I hack up my victims like pieces of meat
Blood-thirsty demon, sinister fiend
Bludgenous slaughters, my evil deed
A merciless butcher who lives underground
I'm out to destroy and I will cut you down
[Verse 7]
It's Black Friday
Paint the devil on the wall
It's Black Friday
Paint the devil on the wall
It's Black Friday
Paint the devil on the wall
It's Black Friday
Paint the devil on the wall
It's Black Friday
Paint the devil on the wall
It's Black Friday
Paint the devil on the wall
It's Black Friday
Paint the devil on the wall
It's Black Friday
Paint the devil on the wall
