Lyrics
They're walking by the night The moon has frozen blue Long black coats a shelter for the rain Their load must get through Now bats are leaving their trees They're joining the call Seven satanic Hell preachers heading for the hall Bringing the blood of a newborn child Got to succeed if not it's Satan's fall Way out in Egypt in the valley of kings Where the mummified pharaohs Pretend dead in their sleep Don't touch, never ever steal Unless you're in for the kill Or you'll be hit by the curse of the pharaohs Yes you'll be hit and the curse is on you The curse of the pharaohs can be so deadly Just destroying your future Makin' it all shady Don't touch, never ever steal Unless you're in for the kill (for the kill) Or you'll be hit by the curse of the pharaohs Yes you'll be hit and the curse is on you Listen, I'm a corpse, I'm a corpse I'm a corpse without soul Satan, he's taken, he's taken He's taken his toll And he took it on me I, I'm trapped, I'm trapped I'm trapped in his spell Tonight, I'm going, I'm going I'm going to Hell, inside his spell Howl like a wolf And a witch will open the door Follow me and meet our high priestess Come, come into my coven And become Lucifer's child Undress until you're naked And put on this white coat Take this white cross and go to the center of the ring Come, come into my coven And become Lucifer's child I was born on the cemetery Under the sign of the moon Raised from my grave by the dead And I was made a mercenary In the legions of Hell Now I'm king of pain, I'm insane You know my only pleasure Is to hear you cry I'd love to hear you cry I'd love to see you die And I'll be the first To watch your funeral And I'll be the last to leave I'd love to hear you cry And when you're down beyond the ground I'll dig up your body again And make love to shame Oh lady cry, and say goodbye (goodbye) Oh lady cry, and say goodbye You've gotta say goodbye 'Cause I will eat your mind
