Curse Of The Voodoo Priest

On the floor convulsed by pain
Stabbing through his chest
His eyes rolled back
His tongue is black
Pierced by unseen blades

In an old house in the swamp
Ritual drums resound
Needles in clay
Again and again
The priest cackles loud

A man lies dead in his bed
In his prime it's fair to say
Nothing seems wrong
His body was strong
And yet he's cold as ice

It is the curse of the vodoo priest
His evil spells cause evil dreams
Against the order of all natural life
The body lives when the soul has died

Beware the walking dead!

Oh when the night is dark
And the moon has shed its face
The veil of the underworld covers the stars
Around you the rusting of leaves can be heard
The zombies are out to do their priests command

Scared to death the woman cries
She met her husband in the night
Though six months ago
They buried his corpse
So to the asylum she goes
