Mid-evil phantoms of a past gone awry
Scepters and schemers just waiting to die
We eat and feast for many reasons why
No rules, no laws just you and I
Medieval stories are our every day
Suffer, survive, make them pay
We’re all gonna die in our own way
Only fate knows how long we’ll stay
Drinking and fucking and passing the time
Saving doubloons to pass down the line
Can’t take no shit, pass me more wine
Kill them all or they’ll tear out your spine
Burning the masts to sail to the future
Light up the forest to root out the creatures
Cut them up, karma’s your teacher
Until the last reveals your main feature
Rotting, and shitting, and wasting away
Our eggs, our seeds, are the only way
To stave off death, make sure we stay
But irony’s a rival we can’t keep at bay
Castles and kingdoms couldn’t hold our greed
There was always something more we could bleed
There was nothing ever that could sate our need
We only knew feed, feed, feed
Praying to heaven suited us well
But a suit is a mask that takes us to hell
No matter how many of us fell
There was always another to keep up the spell
Now all that’s left is tell, tell, tell
Fleet-footed messengers ringing the bell
Ghosts of the past stain the shell
With sins of today impossible to quell
