Bringer of War - Ghoul

Pandemonium rattled the crypts

Tunnels corroded in acidulous drips

A ruckus interrupting our daily dead

As the villagers fled with acid melting their heads

Weakening stanchions, savage assault

The bodies were piled into a burial vault

There was a terrible cave-in, crushing debris

What came through the ceiling brought us right to our knees

A massive contrivance enveloped in bones

Cradled in death upon a sinister throne

Clad in iron, oxidized

Buried for years away from curious eyes

A circle emblazoned on its riveted skin

And an ominous glow illuminating within

Omicron prototype 77-Y if found, pucker up and kiss your ass goodbye

Samedi stiffened and his lips were atwitch

As a mysterious hum achieved a deafening pitch

A massive contrivance enveloped in bone

Cradled in death upon a sinister throne

As if to intone…

I am the bringer of war

Atomic death forevermore

I am the bringer of war

Behold the fury of my roar

Trapped in a reverie, the voodoo man fell

He dreamed of salvation through nuclear hell

Omicron energy to shatter the spell

And the vaporization of his corporeal shell

Stun grenades from the bully brigade

Elbows and knuckles in a violent raid

We bloodied our boots as we battled the brutes

But they netted the bomb, so all the effort was moot

Beaten down, we had to retreat

Samedi seething at our tragic defeat

A radio crackled the weapon is seized

Our hackles were raised as the Commandant wheezed

Flee from my legions, pitiful fools!

There’s nowhere to hide now, this is the end of Ghoul!

Scuttle to safety like pestilent rats

The fuse is burning quickly now that…

I am the bringer of war

Atomic death forevermore

I am the bringer of war

Behold the fury of my roar
