Death Knell Lyrics by Ghost

Opus Eponymous

2010

[Verse 1: Papa Emeritus]
Say, can you see the cross?
Inverted solemnly
A symbol for the goat
Of a thousand young

[Chorus: Papa Emeritus]
Six, six, six
Evoke the king of hell
Strike the death knell, death knell
Death knell, death knell

[Verse 2: Papa Emeritus]
Say, can you hear the chimes?
Tolls now for the end
Bells call out our doom
As victor reaches womb

[Chorus: Papa Emeritus]
Sex, sex, sex
Receive the beast of evil, of evil

[Verse 3: Papa Emeritus]
Can you say his name?
Carrier of the light
Legions of his seed
A child you as spouse will feed

[Chorus: Papa Emeritus]
S-A-T-A-N
Under spell
Of the death knell, death knell
Death knell, death knell
