This is my ode to the greatest horror writer of all time, Howard Phillips Lovecraft. This was the last über güber track to be completed, and I think it’s one of my favorites. The blazing lead on this track was played by the one and only Eric Stogner.

Lyrics © 2005 Kenneth N. Calloway

It was Erich Zann who wrote the song that you’re about to hear

Just after Charles Dexter Ward bought them a round of beers

When Herbert West started singing, well I nearly lost my mind

But then after all, H.P. Lovecraft is a friend of mine

I followed a whisper in the dark, like the candle and the moth

That’s how I became a guest of the Fungi from Yuggoth

They put my brain inside a jar, and now I’m feeling fine

But then after all, H.P. Lovecraft is a friend of mine

*BRIDGE*

WHEN YOU WAKE UP SCREAMING, CTHULHU IS DREAMING

There’s Rats in the Walls and far worse things that go bump in the night

The Great Old Ones are coming back when the stars are right

And when they do come breaking through from outside space and time

I’ll say, After all, H.P. Lovecraft is a friend of mine

I’ll say, After all, H.P. Lovecraft is a friend of mine
