Unwilling Host

about

Everybody knows it.

lyrics

This parasite says: “I am a legion.
Give us the swine, that we might release him.”

You know my practice so well. (So well! Oh Oh.)
You know my practice so well, Baal.
You know my practice so well. (So well! Oh Oh.)
I know I’ll see you in hell.

In the cemetery, screaming: “Everybody knows it."
I’ll never be saved, and everybody knows.
Heavenly singing. Every body knows it.
Every demon needs a willing host.

Coded message is thy art:
Are we deceived yet?
One shoulder-devil to test your heart,
And haunt your sleeping.

You know my practice so well. (So well! Oh Oh.)
You know my practice so well, Baal.
You know my practice so well. (So well! Oh Oh.)
I know I’ll see you in hell.

In the cemetery, screaming: “Everybody knows it."
I’ll never be saved, and everybody knows.
Heavenly singing. Every body knows it.
Every demon needs a willing host.

I’ll never be sure who’s steering…
This heart, when the rhythms’ all jumbled.
I sure as hell hope I’m unwilling…
Cast out, ’til my vacancy sign lights up.

(Dragging the world… Down! Down…)
To the cemetery. Everybody knows it.
I’ll never be saved, and everyone knows.
Heavenly singing. Every body knows it.
Every demon needs a willing host.
