1. SHREDDED HUMANS

Early hours/Open road
Family of five/On their way home
Having enjoyed a day in the sun
Their encounter with gore has just begun
A homicidal fool
Not knowing left from right
Now has the family in his sight

Trying to perceive if he's blind or insane
He steers his car into the other lane

Both of them collide/Expressions horrified
Head on at full speed
The vultures will soon feed

Father of three
Was impaled on the wheel
As his skull became a part of the dash
His eyeballs ejected/His sight unaffected
He saw his own organs collapse

Seat belt was useless for holding him back
It simply cut him in two
Legs were crushed/Out leaked the pus
His spinal cord took off and flew
Mother took flight through the glass
Ended impaled on a sign
Intestines stretched
From the car down the road
For a quarter of a mile

Fourth child on the way
Won't live another day
Fetus on the road/Mangled little bones
Little children fly
Not a chance to wonder why
Smashed against the ceiling
All their skin burning and peeling

Shards of glass explode
Chest and skull now implode
Corpses they've become
And graves will have to be... dug
Underneath the wheels
Burning rubber on your face
Bleeding from your eyes
The slaughtered victims lies

Knowing what he's done
He just backs up one more time
Laughing at the mess
A pile of meat on the street

One child left slowly dying now
Arteries gushing blood
Now it's time to feed on flesh
The gore has just begun

One child left slowly dying now
Arteries gushing blood
Now it's time to feed on flesh
The gore has just begun

Early hours/Open road
Family of five/On their way home
Having enjoyed a day in the sun
Their encounter with gore has just begun
A homicidal fool
Not knowing left from right
Now has the family in his sight

The look of death in my eye
Surely no-one will survive
Just a pile of mush left to dry in the sun

I see my fresh kill left in the road
Remains of your bodies mangled and torn

[Solo]

I see my fresh kill left in the road
Remains of your bodies mangled and torn

[Solo]

Yuh!

It was useless for holding him back
It simply cut him in two
Legs were crushed/Out leaked the pus
His spinal cord took off and flew
Mother took flight through the glass
Ended impaled on a sign
Intestines stretched
From the car down the road
For a quarter of a mile

One child left slowly dying now
Arteries gushing blood
Now it's time to feed on flesh
The gore has just begun


2. EDIBLE AUTOPSY

Argh! Argh!

Wheeled in on a cart

Lying dormant not dead
Hospital of immortality
Butcher their patients bloody red
Taken to a dark room
Fear of impending doom
Doctor straps you down with an evil grin
Grabs his rusty blade
Ripping through flesh and vein
He tortures his patients with evil... means

You can't try to fight them
First they change your brain
Beyond the realm of evil
Their means are insane
Mutilated beyond belief but still kept alive
Pathologist of death
Gouging out your eyes

Guts and blood, bones are broken
As they eat your pancreas
Human liver for their dinner
Or maybe soup with eyes
Cause of death still unknown
Gnawing meat from your bones
Bone saw binding in your skull
Brains are oozing, human stump
Needles injected through your eyes
Pulling off flesh, skinned alive

Argh! Argh!

Guts and blood, bones are broken
As they eat your pancreas
Human liver for their dinner
Or maybe soup with eyes
Cause of death still unknown
Gnawing meat from your bones
Bone saw binding in your skull
Brains are oozing, human stump
Needles injected through your eyes
Pulling off flesh, skinned alive

Killing for free/In blood they will trust
And they must never forsake
Feeding on blood
That brought them abound
And they must kill tonight
Genocide/Suicide/Screaming cries
In Hell you will die

Lying dormant not dead
Hospital of immortality
Butcher their patients bloody red
Taken to a dark room
Fear of impending doom
Doctor straps you down with an evil grin
Grabs his rusty blade
Ripping through flesh and vein
He tortures his patients with evil... Means

...Means


3. PUT THEM TO DEATH

Argh! Argh!

Evil people with evil minds
Slaughter their victims with ripping knives
They should be caught and put to death
Strapped in to the chair

Evil people with evil minds
Slaughter their victims with ripping knives
They should be caught and put to death Strapped in to the chair

Blood spewing from their eyes
As you hear their sinful cries
Destroy their evil minds
We should take their fucking lives
They should be caught
Punished for what they have done

Torture them slowly it would be fun
Kill them all off one by one

Let them go, no, torture them slow

Fuck you and your kind
We don't need you or your lives
Execute by injection
Execution by electrocution

Fuck you and your kind
We don't need you or your lives
Execute by injection
Execution by electrocution

Evil people with evil minds
Slaughter their victims with ripping knives
They should be caught and put to death Strapped in to the chair


4. MANGLED

Demolition of bodies/Smashed and broken
Piles of guts/Moist and steaming
Tendons severing/Brains are boiling
Unburied corpses/In state of decay

Rotten limbs start to ferment
Torsos torn in two
Skin ripped off to expose muscle tissue
Butchered for human stew

Crawl into the cadaver head first
Eat your way through the guts
The pungent smell of decaying innards
Is enough to drive you nuts
The spleen of the carcass
Is oozing from your mouth
As you chew on the piss filled kidneys
Suck the vomit through intestines
Leaving nothing but bones

Violently cutting/Seriously hacking
Sounds of death fill the air

Bones sticking out/Ripped from sockets Blood is spurting everywhere

Victim lying dead/Neck but no head
Smearing remains on your own face

Violently cutting/Seriously hacking
Sounds of death fill the air

Blistering flesh/Another death
Stiffened bones/Morbid groans
Evil mind brain oozing slime/Feel the pain

Body weak/Brain contorting
Fluid flowing from your organs

Veins torn out/Mangled!

Festering flesh/Quivering cadaver
Ligaments stretched
Around your own neck

Drink the pus/Mangled!

Severed dick/Bloody bowels
The gutted corpse now lies hollow

Feeding on feces/Mangled!

Amputated arms/Crushing legs
Head is ripped right off your shoulders

Thrown in a pile/Mangled!

Limbs rearranged/Head on backwards
A humongous heap of twisted flesh

Sewn together/Mangled!

...Mangled!

Knife plunges in
Your cold battered body
Blood seeping through
The jagged wounds he cuts
Unbearable pain/Give into death
Your life slips away/Perish in blood

Knife plunges in
Your cold battered body
Blood seeping through
The jagged wounds he cuts
Unbearable pain/Give into death
Your life slips away/Perish in blood

Menacing madman mutilating
Destroying/Disfiguring/Dead you'll be
Crushing/Cracking/Killing you
Annihilation/Desecration

Born through modern day science
Man has made his last mistake
A creature so hideously horrible
Leaving nothing to waste

Evil has a new face
A mangled horrible face
His views are those of death
Nothing will stop his lust

Slicing victims left to decay
Listening to their mortal cries
Unhuman/Immortal/Bestial
Now he owns your soul

Slicing victims left to decay
Listening to their mortal cries
Unhuman/Immortal/Bestial
Now he owns your soul

Crawl into the cadaver head first
Eat your way through the guts
The pungent smell of decaying innards
Is enough to drive you nuts
The spleen of the carcass
Is oozing from your mouth
As you chew on the piss filled kidneys
Suck the vomit through intestines
Leaving nothing but bones

Human converted to beast
The perfect killing machine
Psychotic structure of brain tissue
Murder his only memory

Dependent on death/Crushing your head I’m addicted to blood

Chew the decay

Dependent on death/Crushing your head I’m addicted to blood

[Solo]

The weakened man must die
Tearing out his insides
Smashing all the bones
Hear his tormenting groans


5. SCATTERED REMAINS,
SPLATTERED BRAINS

Prepare to witness a place of gore
Of legal dissection and blood on the floor
Carved up corpses, in the corner
Sliced up by, a psychotic coroner

Slice/Dice/Chop them up
like laboratory mice
Splatter brain matter
Pound on the skull until it shatters

Hack/Slice/Chop/Carve/Rip and Tear
Carving up your eyeballs/Watch them stare

Tear/Rip/Slice/Carve/Chop and Hack
Toss them all into a sack

Tags on bare feet means a real treat
To the butcher of human meat
Slice the throat from ear to ear
Gallons of blood do appear

Veins exposed, torn from bodies
The most interesting of hobbies
To get paid for such a task
Is more than any man could ask

Tags on bare feet means a real treat
To the butcher of human meat
Slice the throat from ear to ear
Gallons of blood do appear

Prepare to witness a place of gore
Of legal dissection and blood on the floor
Carved up corpses in the corner
Sliced up by a psychotic coroner

Slice/Dice/Chop them up
like laboratory mice
Splatter brain matter
Pound on the skull until it shatters

Hack/Slice/Chop/Carve/Rip and Tear
Carving up your eyeballs/Watch them stare

Tear/Rip/Slice/Carve/Chop and Hack
Toss them all into a sack

Ripping/Tearing/Your skin turning red
Vile surgeon/Knife cutting in
Skull cracking to expose your brain
Evil doc death drove insane

Ripping/Tearing/Your skin turning red
Vile surgeon/Knife cutting in
Skull cracking to expose your brain
Evil doc death drove insane


6. BORN IN A CASKET

Enter the crypts of Hell
To impregnate the dead
Fresh burial sight/My hunger grows tonight

Undying lust for cadaverous molestation
Sights of death building my sensations
Ferocious need for decomposing bodies

Sex with the dead/Now I must breed
With the stiff corpse/Planting my seed
The taste of formaldehyde/Smell of the rot
Suck out the goo/Feast on her crotch

Raging fires of Hell
Burning through my soul
My love for a dead fuck, I cannot control
The child soon will rise, evil will survive
Birth through death

The newborn needs a feast
Its mother is the meal
Chomping on her flesh
His teeth tearing her skin

Yeah!

I love to fuck the dead
Demons in my head/Tearing at my brain

I love to fuck the dead
Demons in my head/Tearing at my brain

Intake!

Bleeding sores beginning to stench
While you lick the festering stump
Green infection discharging pus
Devour the putrid afterbirth

Sex with the dead/Now I must breed
With the stiff corpse/Planting my seed
The taste of formaldehyde/Smell of the rot
Suck out the goo/Feast on her crotch


7. ROTTING HEAD

A quivering pile of useless flesh
Locked in a padded cell

Hidden from prying eyes of curiosity
Experiments made him what he is today

His head is rotting but his body lives on
Worthless vegetable
Unknown to mankind
The incredible power of his mind!

Hideous heredity/Genetic imbalance Resorting to cannibalism
A feast begins as the patient's skull
Is cracked open like a walnut
Brains devoured in a frenzied slaughter
Thirst for gore, nothing more
Bile is dripping, pus from wounds
As the coroner drinks it down

The sight before your eyes, can't describe
A trip through this living Hell
Rot away your skull

Genital laceration/Anal asphyxiation
Block the bowel passage
Defecation/Hemorrhage
Cadaverous mutilation
Metamorphial radiation
Devourance of arteries
Decapitated extremities
Cranial excavation/Cerebral liquidation
Brain turned to soup/Ears dripping goop

Slimy/Oozing/Dripping pus
Torn out fingernails starting to fuse
Shredded cartilage victim lies
Eye sockets, but no eyes

Miles of intestines strewn all about
Facial features strickened with gout
Hanging bodies dripping with blood
The blackened fluid sinks in the mud

[Solo]

A quivering pile of useless flesh
Locked in a padded cell


8. THE UNDEAD WILL FEAST

Undead feast, tear
Terror builds, thought of being dead
Prophecy of wise men of old
Now comes true
as the corpses break the soil

Ancient spell breaks the sleep of the dead
The dead awake/Populace is fearing
Panic strikes as the nations run in fear
Oceans boil with blood of human victims

Suicide, the only way to avoid being eaten
by the undead
Grave yards coming alive with zombies hungry for living flesh
Psychotic trans-mutated corpses upsurging the population
Sickening disaster of epidemic proportions devouring us

Tables turn as a victim I’ve become now
State of death, waiting to return
Vital signs that show I’m dead
This can't happen, I'm rising from my grave
Hunger grows
Not nutritional but instinctual

Flesh becomes my crave of this live
Unthinking state
A state of metamorphosis
Seeking food to keep me dead

Degenerate
A product of man's frustration for his terror
Hunger for mankind
building with each kill
Seeking human victims to meet my fill
Cannibal I’ve become
What's happened to my brain

Feast on the corpse, suck out his brain
As its fluids drip down the drain
Chew on the bones, drink from its bladder
The vile stench, only makes me madder

In through the mouth, out the forehead
Brains fall out, skin turns red
Violent surge, a spear through the skull
Felt the urge, now my heart's full

I crave gore, I’ll eat your guts

I love gore, blood drives me nuts
I drink blood, I don't like water
Intestines my cud, I feast in the slaughter
Twist its neck, make it crack

Suicide, the only way to avoid being eaten
by the undead
Grave yards coming alive with zombies hungry for living flesh
Psychotic trans-mutated corpses upsurging the population
Sickening disaster of epidemic proportions devouring us

Blood I want to drink/I want to suck
Brains I want to eat/The rest I’ll chuck
Bones into a spear/I’ll carve and kill
Hunger for the quest/I'll never fill

Blood I want to drink/I want to suck
Brains I want to eat/The rest I’ll chuck
Bones into a spear/I’ll carve and kill
Hunger for the quest/I'll never fill

I crave gore, I’ll eat your guts

Ooargh


9. BLOODY CHUNKS

Ra!

Walking down the street
The smell of death in the air
What a rotting stench

My imagination runs wild
At what it could be

Open up the can to discover a dead body
Or what was left of one/pieces in a bag
Blood is everywhere/what a wretched sight
Cut up really small by a razor sharp knife
Lying in the garbage
No one else knows what I have found

What should I do?
Take it to the police, or make it into stew?
This was an evil committed by the insane
Looking down laughing, I am the same

The sight of death drives me nuts
I must kill to control my brain
Swept away by my lust to cause pain
Mutilation is my only want

The evil inside me gives me the strength
to kill at will
My life is the means to cause death
in the most sinister way

I see it in your eyes
The fear that keeps me alive
I'll take it away, your life will end today
I'll leave you to rot, what a sick odor
Scream all you want
but you can't stop this horror

Tasting your life as I drink your blood
Ripping out your insides
Chewing on your spleen
Dead or living flesh is what I crave
I'll kill someone, or eat from a grave


10. A SKULL FULL OF MAGGOTS

Lying there cold after a torturous death
Your life ended fast
You took your last breath
Dead in a grave/Your final place
The maggots infest your disfigured face

Pus through your veins
Takes the place of blood
Decay sets in/Bones begin to crack
Thrown six feet down/Left to rot
Brains oozing black
Down the side of your broken neck

Skull full of maggots!

Argh!
Argh-Argh!
Argh!

They enter your tomb, maggots!
Beginning to feast, maggots!
Crawling on you, maggots!
Now they eat you, maggots!
Rotting maggots, maggots!
Infesting your corpse, maggots!

Parasites of the dead
Now dwell in your head

Lying there cold after a torturous death
Your life ended fast
You took your last breath
Dead in a grave/Your final place
The maggots infest your disfigured face

Pus through your veins
Takes the place of blood
Decay sets in/Bones begin to crack
Thrown six feet down/Left to rot
Brains oozing black
Down the side of your broken neck


11. BURIED IN THE BACKYARD

To kill is why I live
My God gives eternal life
Slice you/I watch your blood flow
Rotten brains/I feed 'til I’m full
Pressure building/The body starts to swell

Swell!

The souls of my victims
Brings me great power
Feasting on flesh by the hour

Lungs explode as I cave in your chest
Probing through your organs
Searching for meat
Chewing the heart of my kill
builds my evil will
Bodies emptied of blood
To fill my sacrificial chalice
I stalk my prey at night, I need to kill tonight
To strengthen my evil soul
Those that I kill worship me below

I am your worst reality
Pain and torture of humanity
Violent ways of insanity
There is no end to this cruelty

Ugh! In my grasp I’ll kill you fast
I’ll send your soul to Hell
Butchery of human beings
is the only life I know

My armies of zombies will inherit the earth
And answer to my spells
Mutilated the human race
in search for immortals

I drag the carcass home
It feels stiff and cold
Incantation of the devil to rob it of its soul
Consume the lifeless cadaver
I drink your blackened blood
Its death flows through my body
Indulge in its pain

Crucifixion in the cemetery
awakes the dead from their sleep
Rising from their graves
to devour the weakened mortals
Under my control
I own their tortured souls/souls
