The “Dragon” drinks oil and spits fire like a “Flamethrower,” burning everything including the last surviving humans in the International Space Station.
[Verse 1]
Depths of hell, dragon rise
Death in mind, smoking eyes
Malice gleam, deadly guise
Futile to hypothesize
Soul blackened by the dark arts
Strike a fear in mortal hearts
Taketh to the sky with blazing darts
Flame those foolish, lazy fucks
[Verse 2]
My eyes start to spin
Senses dulled by the original sin
Newfound gasoline
Sing and dance with thee, my new family
The folly of men, the tragedienne
A force of nature, a force of might
Fire on the land and wind in flight
Those who stand before do cower in fright
Oh fearsome one, thou art terrible sight
[Chorus]
Flamethrower
Flame
Thrower
Flame
Throw a flame
[Verse 3]
Engage the mesolimbic pathway
Stimulate brain reward activates
Burn nerve-numbing hot, swimming dopamine
Sweet smelling, the flesh melting benzene
Mouthfuls of the black, bubbling fuel
Feel it spray through the lizard nostrils
Mayday, mayday!
Calling ground control
The space station in a dragon-death-roll
[Chorus]
Flamethrower
Flame
Thrower
Flame
Throw a flame
Flamethrower
Flame
Thrower
Flame
Throw a flame
[Verse 4]
I drink lakes of motor oil
I engulf and I inflame
I disrupt the natural order
I come of wind and I come of cloudburst rain
I am the high priestess
I spew motor spirit breath
I will torch the ISS
The last enemy to be destroyed is death
Fire-pious church-goer
Flamethrower
[Verse 5]
Oil wells drained of fluids
Underneath stand black gold druids
The dragon turns his gaze above
Releases his breath, a flaming dove
Engines crunch on the ground below
Through its teeth, cleansing lava flows
Gaia set to self-destruct
Flamethrower complacent fucks
[Chorus]
Flamethrower
Flame
Thrower
Flame
Throw a flame
[Instrumental]
["Motor Spirit" Refrain]
Motor spirit, motor spirit
Motor spirit, motor spirit
Motor spirit, motor spirit
Motor spirit, motor spirit
Motor spirit, motor spirit
Motor spirit, motor spirit
Motor spirit, motor spirit
Motor spirit, motor spirit
