lyrics

Mockery of human, mockery of man
Ancient eldritch monster, terror of the land
Mockery of a beast standing on two legs
You should run, you should run
You should run away

Long ago in a land not far away
A doctor went out looking for a way
To bridge the gap between life and death
But he made a grave mistake

Piecing together a monster of a man
The doctor had formulated a plan
To stimulate the stitched-up corpse's brain
With lightning, thunder, and rain

Mockery of human, mockery of man
Ancient eldritch monster, terror of the land
Mockery of a beast standing on two legs
You should run, you should run
You should run away

But the so called "beast" just wanted affection
Yet his creator would only give him none
For he could not bear to look at that
Which he had brought to life

Learning quicker than his creator thought
The "beast", unloved, went out to town and wrought
Such havoc that the townspeople cried out
For the blood of the "beast"

Mockery of human, mockery of man
Ancient eldritch monster, terror of the land
Mockery of a beast standing on two legs
You should run, you should run
You should run away

All it wanted was somebody love
Since its creator could not give him that love
It threatened to harm the doctor's loved ones
And its creator complied

But its soulmate was nothing but a trap
That its own creator had set up
To capture the "beast" and get rid of it
So the doctor murdered and lied

Mockery of human, mockery of man
Ancient eldritch monster, terror of the land
Mockery of a beast standing on two legs
You should run, you should run
You should run away

From the mocking of the humans, mocking of the men
From the blatant monsters, terrors of the land
They are just like a beast standing on two legs
You should run, you should run
You should run away
Don't look back, don't look back
Just keep running 'way
You should run, you should run
You should run away
