Sethifus - My Pet Monster Lyrics

Yes please come in come in
Thank you for attending
This private viewing of my collection
Of oddities and curiosities from all around the world

Here you will see my gallery
My Addams, Gorey, and Grimly
But that's for the general public to see
Let's travel further down

Venture down the spiral staircase
Where my artifacts are stored
Yes some are quite illegal
But certain laws must be ignored
To house such priceless treasures
One cannot afford
To play by the rules that uncultured men adore

Yes I have voodoo dolls and shrunken heads
Reanimated limbs from the living dead
And gore-stained sheets stolen from the beds
Of the newly exorcised

And over here is a queer little piece of history
A shackled box shrouded in mystery
It seems the only skeleton key
Is the blood of men who lie

And speaking of blood
Please don't mind the floors
The red-brown spotting, the visceral smell
And where the wood is scored
As if by someone's fingernails
As they were dragged behind the door
It seems this evening's true purpose
Can no longer be ignored

My Pet Monster
Needs something to eat
It's a pity
But you're within reach
His tummy is rumbly
And Kibble just won't do
When what he's got the munchies for
Is you

As his teeth grind your bones
For his daily bread
I ignore your screams of agony
And soon you'll be dead

My Pet Monster
Can not be restrained
His hunger cannot
Be contained
The death of the innocent
Is my one regret
He's a monster
But he's still my pet
