Zoological WARFARE

ZOO of the NIGHT
by Justin Karpel

Listen up, you fearless creatures
Listen up, you lazy humans
Are you ready for the fight?
Have you seen the ZOO at night?

This is neither hell nor heaven
Come with me, my sacred brethren
Waltz the noxious pas de deux
In the kingdom of the ZOO

Now we have this majesty
Now we have our anarchy
Now we have this tragedy
What else can they do to me?


This is not an easy life
Filled with War and Hate and Strife
This is not an easy death
Soon there will be nothing left

Now we have this majesty
Now we have our anarchy
Now we have this tragedy
What else can they do to me?

I've been beaten, I've been killed,
I have been superbly thrilled
human flesh is better grilled
blood is shed & blood is spilling
everywhere is spilling everywhere tonight
is spilling red and thick and bright
is spilling everywhere tonight (THAT'S RIGHT!)


OH the hell with SAFE & SANE
There are many metagames
Convolutions of the brain
Evolutions of the plain

This is not an Earthly drama
This is not a diorama
Draw for me a draught of soma
If you wake up from the coma

If you wake up from this dream
another sick, disgusting beast
When you wake up from this dream
A tortured animal in light

Underneath the flaxen moon
I am crowned the lunar loon
Now I raise a zombie doom
How they scream and how they swoon

in putrid rotting skin
decay is slowly setting in
Round them up and lock the cages
What a zombie zoo!

The endless night, lovely night,
the night feels right, tendrils of the night's rhyme,
every night, every time, night is always right,
every time, every night, night is always right,
everlasting night, mongrels of the night,
Endless night, the everlasting endless night tonight

We wage our souls on endless night
to-night to-night to-night to-night
we pray ourselves to the darkness


Faces forward on the march
Battle wounded, torn, and parched
Was it like this from the start?
Is the ZOO the highest art?
Soon our struggle shall be finished
Some will fall and some be nourished
If we harvest flawless courage
We can win this war tonight!
If we harvest human organs
If you want to be a martyr
If you've got the stomach for it
Learn the weapons of the wise
Find the words that magnetize:

GUNS GRENADES
FECES FIRES LASERS
NEEDLES CLAWS
FISTICUFFS FINGERTRAPS FURNACES
MISHAPS HAPPENSTANCE
LAUGHING GAS & LIGHTNING BUGS
PUT ZOOLOGICAL WARFARE TO THE TEST!
