lyrics

I see a new death metal band
In the home of the brave.
A hyperactive drummer
Hungover from the grave
Hits a double kick,
A cymbal crash, a floor tom.
In comes the guitar
With a harmonic dive bomb.
Distorted bass
Lays down a groove.
Fists pumping in the pit,
Hungry masses move.
The bowel-churning vocalist
Growling at the hordes
Says, “Thanks for coming guys!”
Ripping up his vocal cords.
Misanthropic anthems
Stirring up the nation,
Nefarious consumption,
Infernal devastation,
Malevolence and mayhem
In the land of the free,
Trucker-hatted hipsters
Throw the horns ironically.
Americana connoisseurs
Turn up their nose.
College kids disdain
The average working Joes.
The lifers and the locals
Drink Jägermeister shots
And wage unholy battle
At seven billion watts.

Hail…
Death metal comes to America.

Mortuary t-shirts,
Apocalyptic swag,
Illegibly a logo
Creeps across a flag.
Critics from the underground
They enjoy the show
Standing there with folded arms
Against the status quo
Of religion, war, gore
Bloody gore and destruction.
Vegetarians discuss
Cattle Decapitation.
Hail, death metal girls,
You can get ahead
In a scene that won’t discriminate
As long as you can shred.

Hail…
Death metal comes to America.

Hail annihilation
Of Main Street USA.
Embrace the coming
Horror, chaos, and decay
Of city versus town,
Left versus Right.
“Thanks for coming, guys,”
Says the band in black,
Waving goodnight.
