Lyrics
Flies all green 'n buzzin' in his dungeon of despair Prisoners grumble and p*ss their clothes and scratch their matted hair A tiny light from a window hole a hundred yards away Is all they ever get to know about the regular life in the day; An' it stinks so bad the stones been chokin' 'N weepin' greenish drops In the room where the giant fire puffer works And the torture never stops The torture never stops The torture The torture The torture never stops Slime 'n rot 'n rats 'n snot 'n vomit on the floor Fifty ugly soldiers, man, holdin' spears by the iron door Knives 'n spikes 'n guns 'n the likes of every tool of pain An' a sinister midget with a bucket an' a mop where the blood goes down the drain; An' it stinks so bad the stones been chokin' 'N weepin' greenish drops In the room where the giant fire puffer works 'N the torture never stops The torture never stops The torture The torture The torture never stops That's right! Flies all green 'n buzzin' in his dungeon of despair An evil prince eats a steamin' pig in a chamber right near there He eats the snouts 'n the trotters first The loins 'n the groins is soon dispersed His carvin' style is well rehearsed He stands and shouts All men be cursed All men be cursed All men be cursed All men be cursed And disagree, well no-one durst He's the best of course of all the worst (He's the best of course of all the worst) Some wrong been done, he done it first (Some wrong been done, he done it first) An' he stinks so bad, his bones been chokin' 'N weepin' greenish drops In the night of the iron sausage Where the torture never stops The torture never stops The torture The torture The torture never stops Just like Nils Lofgren! Flies all green 'n buzzin' in his dungeon of despair Who are all these people that he's locked away down there Are they crazy? Are they sainted? Are they zeros someone painted? It has never been explained since at first it was created But a dungeon like a sin Requires naught but lockin' in Of everything that's ever been Look at her Look at him That's what's the deal we're dealing in That's what's the deal we're dealing in That's what's the deal we're dealing in That's what's the deal we're dealing in
