Death Mansion Eyes on the prize, like Jesus Christ Multiplied and Divide Got nothing to prove, if he’s wrong or right. Shoot em Down, Shoot em Down Kill, Kill, Kill I’ve got the hives and chills Turning shocking blue Electric Chair Back of my head, is a haunted place Back of my head, is a mirror maze Back of my head, are your remains Back of my head, don’t Resuscitate Back of my head, lays toxic waste Back of my head, Mansion of Death. Mangled and wrecked, mid- Atlantic Sin Repent, Your Grand Exit Ohhh, Give me Something Or Give me Death. Simmer Down, Simmer Down Acid Bath I’ve got the cloak of Death Red Killing Moon And its Murder Path Back of my head, is a haunted place Back of my head, is evil’s face Back of my head, Incinerate Back of my head, is loving hate Back of my head, burdened space Back of my head, Mansion of Death. Eyes on the prize, like Jesus Christ Crown of Thorns, so Divine Got nothing to prove, if he’s wrong or right. Simmer Down, Simmer Down Acid Bath Thin Lizzy Borden’s Ax Reptilian Moon And its Murder Path Back of my head, most dangerous game Back of my head, Lugosi’s Fangs Back of my head, Dead Kennedy’s Back of my head, Homicidal wish Back of my head, the Olsen Twins Back of my head, Mansion of Death.

5.	Serpenteen 02:31	lyrics	buy track
I indeed know, Teenage Vixen that lies to me like a Dead Nixon I don't want old dishpan Hands That ain't whole, but fragments I don't need ya TV picture warping minds like the yellow scripture I don't want your retro fiction teasing hearts with your contradictions I'm tired of being left in Second Second hands points to mess I'm tired of being wrecked in second Second hand with nothing left I don't need know rocket hipster Weaving webs like a rotten spinster I don't want some scheming smoothie Snatching up this pirate's booty Searching out for sacred hearted All I found was loose, retarded Ramparts like a slot machine And I don't have spare changing
6.	I Don't Know 02:26	lyrics	buy track
Ya know, I climbed the sweetest dream With the twisty Vines Beared All her fruits and wonders On a midnight joyride Ya know, she’s wildly perfect, I pet her pussycat, Meow. She asked me had I eaten I said not till now Happiness Here comes the Rapture Avalanche I’ll Bring the Mojo Fantastic She brought he answers I don’t know Cruised right down her sunset Past Shady Lane Took me through the ceiling Carpet matched the drapes Ya know we tossed and turned My love is stuck on her I’m done. Caught the Virus But, I found the Cure Repeat Chorus Solo Eyes Wide open Shut She Could Rock N’ Rowland Hip shack shaken touch Heart Fulla Soul End Took me to the back, undressed And showed me things Could have been the kiss of death But I need her taste. Repeat Chorus

Six feet Under, Below the Grave Spit up Dust, as my bones decayed Forget, forgot, what you heard the dead are howling, way down har Way Down Spoiled, coiled, and stuck in this muck way Down, way down Elated, deflated, afraid of the dark Way down Your invited, Won't Ya bring a Friend? Ain't no Dying, when your already Dead Run, Run, Run tell Dat Graveyard party is where it's at Way Down Entombed in, been doomed in but ready to shout Way down Siesta, Fiesta, A ghoul's night out Way down Sinking quick, I've capsized Drinking down formaldehyde Zipped, zapped, all sewn shut worms are feasting on my skull Way Down Down, down Way down low

9.	Doomed by the Day 02:47	lyrics	buy track
Disposed of all the reasoned and cold winter seasoned committed your countless treasons from the waxing to the bleeding Moon hides, dagger's eclipsing and the substance I've been missing these days, days so worried douches, cowards, and sorry And the night, ohh the night is doomed by the day Wildfires you kept Ablaze in And you've found my replacement cold shadows, burdened tracing dictating and erasing lost hours, erotic a thieving this heartbreak, I'm leaving traded moments of sought meaning sold heaven for heathens repeat chorus You've off been Amazing And wishful stargazing Past out, days relapsing while our future's been collapsing Eyes locked, like some vultures clouded hours of torture secret notes, lust revealing and the darkness hits the ceiling
10.	Cosmic Freak 01:46	lyrics	buy track
Click your heels on the way to OZ 10,000 Gigawatts Sa it backwards, I'll appear in dreams Like Lionel Richie, dancing on the ceiling Sightseeing, on a lunar course Gravitational g- spot force hit the road, interstellar creeps from the heavens, I'm your cosmic, cosmic freak Comet's blast like a midnight rush Out your galaxy, deep ass push Splitting hairs with my demon touch Secret tales of the succubus Filled with fusion, a galactic crash twist and turn, how the devil laughs Past the planets, and the stars we weave from the depths, I'm your cosmic, cosmic freak Afterburners melting carpet rash Gripping curves how the devil grasps Past the planets and the stars we weaved from the heavens, I'm your cosmic, cosmic freak
