Kill the Beast

Kill the beast Kill the beast In my land, we had a feast And we called it "Kill the beast" We made our fears materialize And cut them down to size Gather 'round my goblin friends As I tell you how the nightmare ends Think of what you're most afraid Join my black parade Any monster, great or small We have the power to defeat them all The bigger they come, the harder they fall They crash down, warts and all (they come tumbling down) If there's something eating me Turn your fear into an effigy March up through the town Burn them to the ground And then, you will be free Kill the beast Kill the beast This one's tongue is long and red With antlers on his head Scaley thighs and seven eyes And teeth as sharp as knives A snake for a tail and razor claws Jutting out of its furry paws A scary thing with big black wings But he won't be here long Any monster, great or small We have the power to defeat them all The bigger they come, the harder they fall They crash down, warts and all (they come tumbling down) If there's something eating me Turn your fear into an effigy March up through the town Burn them to the ground And then, you will be free Kill the Beast Kill the Beast Hoo-ha Hoo-ha Hoo-ha Hold Heave, ho, stop, let it fall Grab a torch, and turn, now burn Huzzah Heave, ho, stop, let it fall Strike, set a light, and spite Huzzah Listen up my goblin friends As I come to the end I hope my tale will avail before the song has seized If you want to be like me And live a life that's monster free In the very least Throw yourself a feast And play, 'kill the beast' Any monster, great or small We have the power to defeat them all The bigger they come, the harder they fall They crash down, warts and all (they come tumbling down) If there's something eating me Turn your fear into an effigy March up through the town Burn them to the ground And then you will be free You'll be free like me Kill the beast
