Belly of the Void
While Samson is swinging his jawbone
There's a raven waiting on a tombstone
The reaper digs graves for all the unknowns
And the devil taps on his xylophone
The blackbird taps out some epitaphs
While Beelzebub is signing autographs
All hell is getting paid time and a half
While Lucifer lets out a deep belly laugh
Above expectant coffins Corvus Corax caws
And greedy vultures wait for the chance to gnaw
As many men meet their last tragic flaws
Hades opens up its' famished gaping maw
