Lyrics
The Monster at the Bottom...
 
He's powerful, fierce and he stinks like hell,
The monster at the bottom of the deep dark well.
Oozing poison into springs and streams,
Belching acid smoke to block the sunbeams.
His slimy tentacles search for blood
He'll suck you in if only he could
There's bones and skulls and flesh everywhere
The monster....he's coming up for air
 
The monster at the bottom with his big goggly eyes
Lurking in the dark, what a nasty surprise
Teeth of cast iron, uranium skin
Ethylene breath and a tongue made of tin
Churning out rumours and plots and schemes
Passing bad vibrations into everyone's dreams
Who was that face at the window last night?
The monster - he's a horrible sight.
 
You think you’re safe in your semi-detached
You turn on the TV to watch the match
It’s been a long day, you doze for a while;
Open your eyes, there's something vile
Crawling down the chimney, bubbling up the plug
Seeping down the walls, slimy on the rug
Open the door, there's no place to hide
The monster gushes in on a crimson tide...
 
Emerging from the fog on a cold wet night
The monster's concealed in the pale moonlight
Footsteps echo in the alley in the dark
The monster moves and the dogs begin to bark
The police arrive, but they never find a clue
The blood is drained, but the body looks like you
There's a sucking sound in the mud by the dump
Two big yellow eyes and a clump, clump, clump
