Goin' Down to Dunwich
Required reading: The Dunwich Horror by H.P. Lovecraft

Hey hey! Noise from the barn today
What's in the attic. What did the arab say? Senses erratic
More more! Don't open that door. It's an encasement
Slime on the kitchen floor up from the basement
I'm goin' down to Dunwich please don't bother waiting up
No no! Into the box you go invisible mass
Feed it and watch it grow, fissuring gas
Hey hey! Killed any cows today? Ia Ia! Yog Sothoth!
Leaving a trail of gray festering broth

Ogdru Jahad
Required reading: Hellboy: Seed of Destruction by Mike Mignola

They whispered of a prison. Ragnarok engine humming
Wrapped, they, in darkness, dreaming. They are the mighty children
Behold the doomsday project. Frog legions bear their vessel
Seven in Earth and Heaven.
Once we were free.
And underneath the desert encased in frozen bedrock
Stacked sleeping agents waiting to see the gates burn open
The desert rip asunder. They grind the land like corn
Bleed oily peals of thunder
Above the tortured heavens so full of silent waiting
Howl screams of birth and triumph unlock the faceless hating
Bred in the depths of ocean. Of giant strength and tread
No hands defy their windstorm

Unstoppable

Well you just had to do that. Well you're as gone as dirt
Well now you're gonna get it and boy it's gonna hurt
I've elbowed with the Old Ones, Khai of Ancient Khem
They sent me little prezzies and you're my gift to them
You can't stop me now, you can't ever stop me
You better lock the shutters, you better say your prayers
It's weaving through the angles, I feel the shifting air
Well you just had to say that. You stay outta my room
Well don't you even touch that or you have sealed your doom

Shoggoths Away
Required reading: At the Mountains of Madness by H.P. Lovecraft. Apologies to Nomeansno and Black Sabbath

While on a flight one day I passed over the polar city
And curious set down to see what I could see
Behold a nightmare pit that splashed with piping shapeless monsters
I packed them in the bay of my B-17
Shoggoths Away!
Nobody wants my mindless iridescent protoplasms
They said to fly them out and drop them in the sea
I tried to sell them on their mimicking adaptive powers
Why don't you get your oily tendrils offa me?
Yes they can form and unform countless limbs and sensing organs
Like a stomach turned inside out and salient
I pictured countless plastic beasties falling from the sky
And dropping like sacks of wet cement

Yig Snake Daddy
Required reading: Curse of Yig by Zealia Bishop

We set out for Oklahoma at a quarter to nine
We had a trunk full of hardware and a bottle of space brine
Well they gave us peyote wouldn't tell us a thing
Until an Indian grocer told us Yig is the king
Oh well Yig Snake Daddy we come looking for you
We got a bored-out Chevy and a twelve pack of brew
Well we're a right-miffed party and it's easy to see
We got a one-way ticket to the pit of insanity
With an eyeful of sun and a mouthful of grit
We awoke to the hissing in the heart of a snake pit
Well we almost all died and Johnny's out of his mind
And though we never found Yig we had a helluva good time

Hookworm
Goddamn it I can see them, crawling just under my skin
They're leaving tracks in my fat, how'm I gonna get rid of them
There's holes all through my privates, they hide between my hairs
They hang on with their tiny teeth
Take me away from here, drill me you hookworm
Take me away from here, kill me you hookworm
Your wings are cold with travel, your tools are on the way
My mind will soon be leaving here, just leave my body where you may
Brought to the rim of knowledge, drilled deep into my skull
The buzzing eats away my mind
Today my knee split open, out squirmed a mass of worms
So small and flat and white through my dry and rotten flesh
Like a shot from a comet's eye silent howls slip in from the sky
It's Yuggoth on the outer rim

Rock Lords
Rock Lords was a line of toys - "powerful living rocks!" They were monster men that transformed into rocks (and vice versa)

We feed on iron ore. We burrow through your planet
Straight to its white-hot core. We bathe in molten granite
Tonight the mountains walk. Our reign is never-ending
Our veins are caked with chalk. Seas parting, forests bending

Protein

Cut off her ears, she didn't want to hear
The voice…the gods…she didn't seem to fear
She is not of the water. I took her piece by piece
This planet's getting hotter. There's got to be a better way
She's dead. That's fine, it's the kind of work that suits me
I had a dream the Crawling Chaos said
"I need for you to fill everyone with lead"
He filled me up with protein, I gave the magic sign
He gave me x-ray vision and now the world is mine

Burrow Your Way To My Heart
Insects are people too. Well, no they're not. But people ARE insects.

When you were a little girl you were stung by a wasp
And the skin on your arm puffed up and went red
But you so loved that wasp and all of his brothers that you
Brought the whole damn angry hive right into your bed
As a child you were riddled with ringworm
So your father cut them out of your skin
Then you felt so alone and remorseful
You tracked each little worm down and put them back in
Have you ever tried to neck with an earwig
Your body is a home to your friends
You've a tick for each nipple and a leech for each finger
And a parasitic love that never ends
Do you have any love left for me? I am small, that's a start
Eat me up with your love, burrow your way to my heart

Worship Me Like A God

Ionize Disinfect Jackques Cousteau Smoothly Softly
Worship me like a god
My gut is full of rot the sound it makes rings loud and true
I've got a plate in my head and my mouth is filled with glue
There's fire in my loins, ice water courses through my veins
My seed is spreading and it's heading in a million strains
The fertile soil beneath me desperately sucks me in
But there I festered, pondered, grew until I rose again
Summoned to kill I ravaged landscape, tainted air and sea
A juggernaut of hunger - shiny, oily, that is me
Saturate Alpha rays Dendrophobe

Slave Ship

Off in the distance rises up a mighty roar
I look around to see I'm not touching the floor
I'm just a pawn in ancient pangalactic wars
To mine the ether ore is my eternal chore
Not here not now not anymore
I'm tired and my head is sore.
Asteroids live and breathe and planets fall in love
Bat-beings groan and seethe and fit you like a glove
Traverse Orion's leg in the blink of an eye
Warm hands at dying suns in boiling midnight skies
No day or night eternal vacuum hard and cold
I slave where time is growing old
Slave ship!

House of clocks

The premise basically a modern tragedy
Disdained senility, gore-tempered novelty
An inability for cold reality
The clocks are the main thing and they'll start reversing
And then the dead are getting up
The servant ends up dead just like the newlyweds
Somewhat unwarranted nails driven in their heads
Enter the spirited punks with their egos fed
They expedite the plan, the gardener kills the gran
Then punk 1 kills the man. That's when it all began
They should have watched the hands. They couldn't understand.

I have a strange question about songs and proper placement. I just ordered the MP3 Album of Cthulhu Strikes Back from Amazon.com and the songs appear to be labeled completely incorrectly.

1. Goin' Down to Dunwich is correct.
2. Ogdru Jahad is correct.
3. Shoggoths Away is correct.
4. Unstoppable is correct.
5. Yig Snake Daddy is correct.
6. Hookworm is correct.
7. Rock Lords is unknown, but both this song and the one labeled House of Clocks under Track 15 have a very similar sounding beat... .
8. Protein is really Rock Lords.
9. Hvw is really Protein.
10. Burrow Your Way to My Heart is unknown, but begins with the phrase "We are not afraid to die, and more importantly we are not afraid to live".
11. Worship Me Like a God is really Burrow Your Way to My Heart
12. Cthulhu Dreams is unknown.
13. Gluttony is really Worship Me Like a God (I think).
14. Slave Ship is really Cthulhu Dreams (I think).
15. House of Clocks is unknown, but both this song and the one labeled Rock Lords under track 7 have a very similar sounding beat...

Any help on what songs are screwed up and what songs aren't... would be appreciated. I begin to think that Amazon didn't include the track House of Clocks or is missing a track somewhere as the listed lyrics for House of Clocks aren't in any song anywhere on the download.

Hmm, looks like you got cheated out of a couple of songs.

Your track 7 is "Wrath"
Your track 10 is "HVW"
Your track 12 is ""Sloth"
Your track 15 is "Gluttony"

I'll happily send you your missing tracks if you email me at thickets@uniserve.com

Oddest thing... I got the album off of iTunes yesterday, but yeah, the songs are just really not named accurately at all.

House of Clocks, Cthulhu Dreams, and Rock Lords are all the same tune, a short rock tune, just with different samples at the ends, or else quieter.

Furthermore, not only are some songs titled incorrectly, I think I'm just missing some altogether.

Is there some weirdness going on with digital copies of the album or the album's reissue or something?

I think you're missing House of Clocks and Slave Ship. Email me at thickets@uniserve.com and I'll hook you up!
