Tormentor Lyrics

by Gwar

Tor...

 Tormentor...



Born into the fog of war

 It left a scar

 He watched his family turn to sludge

 He was appalled, they often are



Because

 Here are the skulls of the vanquished

 Here are the weapons he used

 The more strength you have, the more that he hates you

 You must be consumed



This is his story

 Festooned with glory

 This is history

 It's not a sin...

 Festooned with finery

 You'll find him in the winery

 Festooned with filigree

 These are the maggots in the wounds...



Tor...

 He is Tormentor

 Mentor...

 Tormentor

 Attack-or...

 He is Attack-or

 Tor-men-tor

 Tor...Tor...Tor...



You must retaliate

 He moves

 His armor crinkles

 Like a ferrous dinosaur

 That sound

 Is the sound of his armor



Here are the skulls of the vanquished

 Here are the weapons he used

 The stronger you are, the more that he hates you

 You will be consumed



Festooned with filigree

 This is history

 This is his story

 An allegory



Tor...

 He is Tormentor

 Mentor...

 Tormentor

 Attack-or...

 He is Attack-or

 Tor-men-tor

 Tor...Tor...Tor...



It is said he once cracked a smile

 It was said his blood was made of bile

 It is said his thews are mighty

 It is said his views are righty

 His loins heave with sap



Tormentor...
