New Lyrics: "Wake Up, Dread Cthulhu" (Patreon)
Content
Inspired by this drawing by the inimitable Lar DeSouza.
Wake up, dread Cthulhu, wake up
Wake up, dread Cthulhu, wake up
You’ve been sound asleep
In R’lyeh sunken deep
But now tonight
The stars are right,
And you’ve got souls to reap
Wake up, dread Cthulhu
Wake up, dread Cthulhu
What you gonna tell Shub-Niggurath?
What’ll you tell Yog-Sothoth?
What’ll you tell Nug and Yeb when they say
“Fthagn Ia”?
Wake up, dread Cthulhu
Wake up, dread Cthulhu
It was foretold in the Necronomicon
That you’d arise with your servitors and spawn
Wake up, dread Cthulhu
Wake up, dread Cthulhu
The Earth must be cleansed.
Wake up, dread Cthulhu, wake up
Wake up, dread Cthulhu, wake up
The Stars are right, like I said,
Humanity’s s’posed to be dead
But you horrific, squamous mass,
You won't get out of your bed.
Wake up, dread Cthulhu
Wake up, dread Cthulhu
What you gonna tell Ithaqua,
Dagon and Nyarlothotep?
It's preordained, so don't complain
How far you have to schlep
Wake up, dread Cthulhu
Wake up, dread Cthulhu
Wake up, dread Cthulhu, wake up
Wake up, dread Cthulhu, wake up
Wake up, dread Cthulhu, wake up
Wake up, dread Cthulhu, wake up
