Cavalcade Of Carrion

There it was in front of me.

There it was for me to see.

One long wretched line

Of decadence in the body and mind.

A mother without a man I saw

A baby smashed against the wall.

And then a preacher of God was called.

And on the altar a mother was balled.

Hypocrisy and immorality.

There it was in front of me.

There it was for me to see.

One long wretched line

Of ugliness, filth, and Captain Slime.

A slum full of angry blacks.

And history is a natural fact.

Now it wants to pay us back.

Slavery gave birth to freedom.

Freedom lit the fires of prejudice.

Enter the black widow.

Violence take another bow.

Make way for murder.

Introduce the killers now.

Yo, ho and yo, ho, ho and yo, ho and yo, ho, ho.

Fifteen men on a dead man’s chest.

Yo, ho, ho and a bottle of rum.

Fifteen more wonder who’s the best.

Police cars and body bags for some.

There it was.

A ton of rotting flesh.

Full of squirming maggots.

A young boy’s naked ass.

Full of squirming faggots.

There it was in front of me.

There it was for me to see.

A look into reality.

Or was it just a crazy dream?
