Deadest of the Dead Lyrics


In the deadest of nights I perform a graveside disservice

Disinhuming the remains of those who I deem to deserve this

A corpse dead to rights will undergo this rigorous trashing

Selecting the tomb of the poor stiff that tonight I will be thrashing

Exhumed from the shelter of earth's dusty embrace for a morbid curiosity

Then abruptly dismembered without compunction, just pure feriocity

Consumed and left to welter

In shredded entrails and long dessciated pus

Wiping the dirt from my hands

As I walk from the grave that I've trampled to dust

Caskets uprooted, mausoleums stained red

Riding high six feet deep amongst the deadest of the dead

A tombstone is the sole mute witness

To necro-attrocities as I endeavor to split this

Corpse in half, stricken by my wrath - The carcass is maimed

Cleft by pick-axe, halved, quartered and smashed - The gravesite's in flames

Culled from the reams of obituaries deep in the cemetery - I torment the entombed

The dead should be wary of the grudges I carry - Deep into the gloom

Riding high six feet under

Inhale the stench of my nocturnal plunder

I'll never find piece in a cold, hard death bed

Until I have found the deadest of the dead

Lead - Harvey

Your insipid epitaph rots, in the dead-letter file

A necrophile's smile beguiles, your remains thus defiled

The decrepit laughter echoes, in the now vacant burial plot

Decayed, dead and decomposed, but in peace you'll never rot

Piss on the unholy grave, torso carved and depraved

Now gone the way of all flesh to give me this day my daily death

The next to fall prey to my sepulchural slaughter

Another dead festering corpse whose demise has at last brought her

Under the blade, she's carved up and flayed - Body dismembered

No respects paid, I hack up the slayed - Who no one remembers

Chainsaw fucked to the hilt, her guts have all spilled - I destroy the interred

One foot in the grave, by the casket enslaved - I'm an unholy terror

Riding high six feet down

Finding my niche in a hole in the ground

One step over the dead-line I tread

In this graveyard of stiffs

I am the deadest of the dead!
