“Black Shuck” tells the story of Black Shuck, a mythical demon-dog-thing that is said to roam about the countryside in East Anglia. Growing up in Lowestoft, lead singer Justin Hawkins (and his brother Dan) would have been completely familiar with the story of the titular beast.
Black Shuck Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In a town in the east, oh
The parishioners were visited upon by a curious beast, oooh
And his eyes numbered but one and shone like the sun
And a glance beckoned the immediate loss of a cherished one
Ooh, it was the coming of the
[Chorus]
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck)
That dog don't give a fuck
Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck)
That dog don't give a fuck
[Verse 2]
Flames licked 'round the sacred spire

[Chorus]
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck)
That dog don't give a fuck
Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck)
That dog don't give a fuck
Oooh ooh ooh ooh
[Bridge]
A nimbus of blue light surrounds a crimson paw
As he takes another fatal swipe
At the Blythburgh church door
[Guitar solo]
[Chorus]
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck)
That dog don't give a fuck
Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck)
That dog don't give a fuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck)
That dog don't give a fuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck)
That dog don't give a fuck
Woof!
