best ever death metal band out of denton [mountain goats live at abby’s - with everybody]
Uh, this is a Mountain Goats song
The best ever death metal band out of Denton
Were a couple of guys who'd
Been friends since grade school
One was named Cyrus, and the other was Jeff
And they practiced twice a
Week in Jeff's bedroom
The best ever death metal band out of Denton
Never settled on a name
But the top three contenders
After weeks of debate
Were "Satan's Fingers" and "The Killers"
And "The Hospital Bombers"
Jeff and Cyrus believed in their
Hearts they were headed
For stage lights and Lear jets
And fortune and fame
So in script that made prominent
Use of a pentagram
They stenciled their drumheads and
Guitars with their names
This was how Cyrus got sent to the school
Where they told him he'd never be famous
And this was why Jeff
In the letters he'd write to his friend
Helped develop a plan to get even
When you punish a person
For dreaming his dream
Don't expect him to thank or forgive you
The best ever death metal band out of Denton
Will in time both outpace and outlive you
Hail Satan hail Satan tonight
Hail Satan hail, hail
