Lyrics:

Flies all green and buzzin'
In this dungeon of despair
Prisoners grumblin
Piss they clothes
Scratch their matted hair
A tiny light from a window-hole
Hundred yards away
That all they ever get to know
'bout the regular life in the day
'bout the regular life in the day

Slime and rot and rats and snuck
Vomit on the floor
Fifty ugly soldier men
Holdin' spears by the iron door
Stinks so bad, stones are chokin'
Weepin' greenish drops
In the den where
The giant fire puffer woiks
And the torture never stops
The torture never stops, torture
The torture never stops
The torture never stops

Flies all green and buzzin'
In this dungeon of despair
An evil prince eats a steamin' pig
In a tumbers right near there
In the chambers right near there
He eats de snouts an trotters first!
The loins and the groins are then dispersed
His carvin style is well rehearsed
He stands and shouts
All men be cursed (4x)
And disagree it, well no one durst
He the best of cause of all the woist
Best of cause of all the woist

He stinks so bad his stones been chokin'
Weepin' greenish drops
In the room with the iron maiden
And the torture never stops, torture
Torture never stops
Torture never stops, torture
Torture never stops

Flies all green and buzzin'
In dungeon of despair
Who are'll those people
That is shut away down there
Are they crazy
Are they sainted
Are they heroes someone painted
Someone painted
Are they -isms
Later ornated
Once they come they have been tainted
Once they come they have been tainted
Never been explained
Since at first it was created
But a dungeon and his kin'
Require naught but lockin' in
Of any anything thats been
Could be a her but it's probly a him
Could be a her but it's probly a him
Its what's the deal were dealin' in
Its what's the deal were dealin' in
An he stinks so bad it's hurt
To the pearl and the piles of blast
Any dungeon have a trailer
Were the torture never stops, torture
Torture never stops
Torture never stops, torture
Torture never stops
Torture never stops, talkin' to you
Torture never stops

This is when MTV was a REAL STATION! MTV was real until the year the Space Shuttle blew up, 1986. And ever since...Look at MTV today 2009?

Corporations uber alles!

[garmonbozia318]

hellish- good point, and one a lot of people obviously didn't want to hear. But modern living is a pretty toxic affair: plastic bottles and pvc pipes leaking poison in your water, radiation in your fruit, pesticides in veggies, mercury in the fish, exhaust in the air, factory farmed meat grown in its own shit and then pumped with hormones, steroids, nitrates, coloring and preservatives, frying pans coated with carcinogens, and genetic modification too. Move to the country (if there's any left.)

MTV ate itself. As Frank said "there used to be radio stations and anyone could get their music played and make money but theres only one MTV" When digital media came along and anyone could get their music played on the web, the industry went totally commercial. MTV is a 24/7 commercial for MTV that also sells a variety of high profit disposable products mostly aimed at the vanity market. Products that are toxic, addictive and instantly go down the drain or in the trash are their specialty.

The cause of prostate cancer is still unknown. In former times when there was no processed food life expectancy has been much lower than today.
