Lost and shrouded in darkness for a thousand years
In the ruins of Candar, by wise men feared
Lies an unholy book, The Necronomicon
Waiting to be found
Bound in flesh
Inked in blood
Doorway to the dead
Ancient rites and passages
Words not to be spoken
Corpses rising, Hell-possessed
Hungry to be fed
Nightmare is before you from its ancient sleep awoken
The forest seethes, a rancid womb
Their open graves no longer tombs
Only through bodily dismemberment
Can the horror be stopped
Gnashing jaws meet flashing steel
Chainsaw to the head
Yeah, that"s right - who"s laughing now?
Twelve-gauge double boomstick
Ready to redecorate the walls with shattered skulls and brains
The living kill the dead to stay alive
Undead legion, undead arise
They feast on mortals, savour their cries
They"ll eat your flesh and they"ll swallow your soul
There"s no escape as one by one we fall
Army of darkness, amassed at the gates
The evil dead versus our mortal fate
Demons summoned by Necronomicon
Send them back or we"ll all be dead by dawn
Klaatu! Verata! Necktie!
Klaatu! Verata! Necturn!
Klaatu! Verata! Noodle!
Klaatu! Verata! Nikto!
Bound in flesh, inked in blood
Doorway to the dead
Ancient rites and passages
Words not to be spoken
Gnashing jaws meet flashing steel
Chainsaw to the head
Yeah, that"s right
Who"s laughing now?
Undead legion, undead arise
They feast on mortals, savour their cries
