Atchafalayan Death Waltz Lyrics by Crooked Fingers

0

Well I went to the water to fetch me a drink
And when I stooped down I felt my heart sink
I felt the sea tremble, ripple and rise
Cause there at the surface and to my surprise
Well I dare never joke you or tell you no lie
But staring at me was two big bloodshot eyes
Well they came to me slowly, each eye two miles wide
And when he poked out his head it blocked out the sky
So a black sky got blacker, and it rained a red blood
And the lowlands and the valleys all started to flood;
But just as the flood line come up to my chin
I felt his sharp claws go into my skin
And so clenched in his fist, he squeezed and he pulled
And he laughed as my eyes popped out of my skull
Well I begged him for mercy and I prayed to the son
For the good lord to forgive all the bad things I'd done
But as I implored him it rang clear as a bell
That this big ugly devil fucker was the good lord himself
So he raised me up slowly above the black clouds
And threw my limp body into his big mouth
Well his breath was a bastard and his tongue curled and clung
As he shredded my skin and he plucked out my lungs
Well he chewed and he grinded, such pain I'd not known
And he swallowed my flesh and he spit out my bones
