The TellTale

[CHORUS:]

Boom that’s the sound of the heart bringing doom

In the floor boards up in the room

All day every night every day like boom, boom, boom, boom boom

[RANDOM:]

Some call me a good man, even passionate

I’d even give you my last if you asked for it

In my twilight so I need assistance

I hired a caretaker a week after Christmas

He’s very good at what he does

Fixes banana pancakes which I love

And he treats me awesomely

But one thing that kid of bothers me

he never looks in my eye when he talks to me

My only sin is that I look a little different

Can’t understand why he’s trippin’

Over my appearance? Got to be more than that

Passin’ judgment like he’s some kinda quarterback

I just need some kind of peace

I mean I think he even watches me when I’m tryin’ to sleep

But he does the job well, and that’s enough for me

I just wanna live my last days comfortably

[REPEAT CHORUS]

[MC LARS:]

It’s time for the blood bath

Yes I’m sure, pray to your lord

I’ve been haunted by the man since back in 04

Time to get revenge and so I wait by the door

Hiding in the shadows got an evil plot in store –

I’m sure he be – catching Zs ‘cause he snores

Want to cut his eye out, throw it on the floor

Leave the crime scene so clean well of course

Too bad I’m a victim of the Poe folk lore

Hubris it’s a problem – seen it before

Homboy heard me coming knew that he was done for

“Who’s there” he screamed I attacked with the force

suffocated him till he could breathe no more

by four he was dead and his soul transformed

put him the chamber underneath the floorboards

nevermore as a corpse would he bother me or

he could come back somehow from the morgue

[REPEAT CHORUS]

[RANDOM:]

Now I’m dead and gone feeling no more pain

frame has ceased but my spirit remains

So he thinks I’ll never creep him out again, huh?

Little does he know the scary part’s just beginning

He invites the cops in, this guy’s so cocky

Sits down right next to where he hid the body

Just then something comes over my spirit

My heart starts beating, but only he can hear it

It starts off softly, the volume increases

Soon it’s deafening, piercing like a weapon and

He realizes that it’s coming from the floor boards

Confesesses the crime and he can’t take it anymore

The cops dig me up open the shut case

Now he’s in the penitentiary pressing up plates

If I told you how you’d only be amazed

avenged my own from beyond the grave

[LARS:]

Screw you old man what a horrible trick,

you really make me sick because they caught me quick

Now they locked me in a cell and I’m here for life

A man named Bubba tryin’ to make me his wife

But they thought I was finished the were sure I was done so I’m

planning my escape soon I’ll be on the run

Gonna find your body when I finally get home

Rip the beating heart out just like Indiana Jones

Put it in a blender grind it up for a minute

Drink down quick it will really taste delicious

Oh wait, that’s a bad idea

Then you’ll always be up in my kitchen like Ikea

I punked you and you punked me back,

So let’s let it go and just leave it at that

Because we’re just two wild and crazy guys

Playing pranks on eachother and running our lives

[REPEAT CHORUS]
