The Lyrics

I dragged your naked body, down to near the shore..
bound at hands, chained at thigh
you'll perish any moment no more of livin'
now your time has passed you by
now quickly pray, before I take out.. my buck knife
and some rapid disembowelling, is all it will take
and you're through this night.....
perish , be gone, I'm glad,
you will perish, no more to live,
perish be gone, perish this night, perish be gone
perish this night you die
you will perish no more to live
perish this night, perish be gone,perish this night

I am a vigilante, no, I'm not insane,
Juries hand out lengths of time
the lives that you have taken this is what you need
I will gut you out inside
now will you pray, forgiveness for your crimes????
and your nifty execution, you will not awake,
your time has come tonight...


perish , be gone, I'm glad,
you will perish, no more to live,
perish be gone, perish this night, perish be gone
perish this night you die
you will perish no more to live
perish this night, perish be gone,perish this night

Sorry, I think I know this song, but I can't follow your pacing at all.

Ah, took me a while to realize this is based on the Kool and the Gang song, NOT the Association song of the same title. Someone should fix that! Pretty dark, but nice work, tho!
