Out of the grindhouse ‘round half past one
Got my girl who’s up for some fun,
Speeding up the highway, blasting out of town
I was heading up but she wouldn’t go down
Talking my ear off bout the stupid schlock,
A Science Fiction Double Feature about zombie docs,
They burst out the ground bonesaws in hand,
Their first victims were metal band,
When they were done they wanted more,
Leaving leather, hair and blood on the floor
CHORUS:
Those
Bad doctors, coming in the middle of night.
Bad doctors, giving me quite a fright
Bad doctors, you can never win,
They’ll cut you open, just to sew you back again.
They’re not getting paid so they start slashing,
But if they don’t stop there’s gonna be a bashin’
Car broke down fifty miles from home,
When the battery died on both of our phones,
She spied a place fifty feet way,
Saying it was a place we could stay,
Was a giant mansion five stories tall,
Gargoyles, stained glass, lightning and all,
We knocked on the doors and they opened wide,
The butler asked “Won’t you come inside-
The owner doesn’t get many guests you see,
Still he’s the best doc at brain surgery
CHORUS
Doctor came down dressed to the nines,
“Sorry bout you’re ride, but you’ll feel just fine-
“I’m quite the genius but I don’t get much
Only when you need that special touch”
Sat us in the kitchen and we all had tea,
But just one sip was enough for me
Finally came to, strapped to a table,
Thought to myself this is quite the fable,
Looked at my feet and lowered my jaw,
Doc’s looming over me with a bone saw,
CHORUS
Right as he started cranial assault,
He said “You know Bastard this is all your fault,
This is what you get for talking shit,
You should have died at the Gravel Pit
When I’m done with your lobotomy,
They’ll have no choice but reward me!”
I reached for a scalpel with my fretting hand,
Cut right through the restraining band
Doc turned around “Are you ready for more?”
Just to see me bursting out the bay door.
CHORUS
Got my girl from the other room,
Then ran out escaping certain doom.
But still Doc had one trick up his sleeve,
A damn hungy looking zombie army
We kept on movin, escaping the stench
When he said “I AM ZE MOTHERFUCKING UBERMENSCH!”
Kicked down the door and rushed outside,
My baby thanked me for saving her hide
Hugged and kissed like lovers all along,
Turned around and saw the house was gone.
