Megadeth - The Skull Beneath the Skin lyrics

[Megadeth - The Skull Beneath the Skin lyrics]

Whoa! Whoa!

Mean and infectious, the evil prophets rise
Dance of the Macabre
As witches streak the sky
Decadent worship of black magic sorcery
In the womb of the Devil's
Dungeon trapped without a plea, oh

Seething in agony, necrosis is the fate
Pins stickin' through the skin
The venom now sedates
Locked in a pillory, nowhere to be found
Screaming for your life, no one hears a sound
Help me!

Prepare the patient's scalp to peel away
Metal caps his ears
He'll hear not what we say
Solid steel visor riveted across his eyes
Iron staples close his jaws so
No one hears his cries

The skull beneath the skin the skull beneath

Now you're drawn and quartered
Your bones will make the 'X'
Symbol stands for poison and it's
Chained to your head
And as we fold your arms
To make the holy cross
We cross the crucifix religion has been lost

The skull beneath the skin
The skull beneath the skin

The skull beneath the skin
