Lyrics © 2000 Terence Chua
(to the tune of "These Foolish Things" by Benny Goodman)
An eldritch tome that's bound in human leather
A blood-stained altar where the cultists gather
The songs the shoggoth sings
Cthulhish things remind me of you
An awkward angle where these Things can enter
The Mi-Go opening a Used Brain Center
The sweetness chaos brings
Cthulhish things remind me of you
You came - who knew - you'd turn to goo?
When you turned into slime
I knew somehow you had to be mine
Cyclopean ruins filled with monstrous creatures
A shambling humanoid with fish-like features
Oh how its touch just stings
Cthulhish things remind me of you
How strange - deranged - this sound I hear
The evil in your laugh
As we give thanks to Shub-Niggurath
The distant shouting as the end draws nearer
The shriekings of a planet lost in terror
The beat of leathery wings
Cthulhish things remind me of you
I know - this love - it just won't die
Your spirit haunts me still
Your voice demanding now that I kill
The smell of burning flesh that always lingers
The heady taste of freshly severed fingers
The stench of death that clings
Cthulhish things remind me of you
Just you...
