"Nightmare Part 2"

Last night i had a bad dream,
And it blew my head away,
And there was no solution,
And i've been awake all day.

And all i see is horror,
And it creeps beneath my skin,
And i'm knockin' for my nightmare,
But it just won't let me in.

There were grandma's that were choking,
And clinging to their necks,
And the mothers they just lied there,
While blood gushed from their heads.

And the fathers they were screaming,
While the priests were being sick,
And the vomit hit the ceiling,
While the blood was running thick.

And the goths all ran off naked,
And the punks all started crying,
And the rockers, they all fainted,
'Cos there was no denying,
That the hands of human nature,
Had surely come to blows,
And the end of the earth is here,
And only Jesus knows.

And the fathers they were laughing,
Down the public house,
And the demons they all ran in,
And threw the fathers out.

And they stabbed them in the bellies,
And they ripped off arms and legs,
But the demons started joking,
And had a drink instead.

But the firemen they were on strike,
So they could not resolve,
And the army cut the phone lines,
So they were not involved.

And while all this was happening,
I was fast asleep,
With a very foolish nightmare,
And memories I won't keep.

So i woke up in the morning,
With an idea for a song,
And i knew that this would come out,
And i knew it wouldn't be long.
