Greebly Mork - That Bastard Monster, Love Lyrics

The Monster Bastard Love

Well this monster from above
The one we call "Love"
Is starving for a painful sacrifice

Don't mean to sound crass
But you'd better watch your ass
When it sets you in its sights

It'll turn you inside out
Like a drunken banshee lout
Feasting on your viscera and heart

So don't pay it any mind
You're better off inside
Inside and apart

It feeds on itself
And all around lay the bones of friends it has consumed
Run in fear, run in fear
One by one they disappear
Poor luckless souls, without adieu

The friends you've known for years
Will suddenly disappear
Leaving soulless shells where they once stood

And when you see them once again
And you ask them how they've been
They'll tell you it's all good

Then, one day, I have to warn ya
You'll be standing on a corner
Spy them strolling by in pairs

And though you once knew 'em
Now they're part of a twosome
Giving each other hungry stares

(You hold the key)
That Bastard Monster "Love"
Has eaten all your friends
And left lifeless zombies in their stead

Watch and see?
Hear them scream? They think they're living in a dream!
You're friends are better off dead.

(You hold the key)

Tale a look
It's all around just oozing out
Like a festering sore

See your friends, if you dare to look
Like so many fish on a fishing hook
They have no free will anymore!

One day when least expected
They'll prove what's been suspected
When they disclose a ring and a date

And though you'll be tempted
May your presence be pre-empted
Lest you share their fate!
