I graduated honored letters
The very doctorate of pride
Then I attacked the world unfettered
With a steamer full of books and a box full of knives
As above so below
You boast of what you know
But everywhere are wonders and signs
The bats are hungry tonight
As the species grew in number
Suspended in formaldehyde
They came to haunt me in my slumber
A head full of terror and a jar full of eyes
As above so below
You boast of what you know
But everywhere are wonders and signs
As within so without
Have you faith or have you doubt?
All proceeds by noble design
The bats are hungry tonight
Now I look to my chthonic kingdom
My eerie phylum and my class
And I have nothing left to bring them
But a steamer full of books
And a box full of ash
As above so below
You boast of what you know
But everywhere are wonders and signs
As within so without
Have you faith or have you doubt?
All proceeds by noble design
The bats are hungry tonight
