2. Not for the Innocent (4:23)
I'm mean and I'm dirty, like none you've ever seen
Bad habits drip like honey, no tongue can lick me clean
I'm not of royal blood, I've never been discreet
Better lock up your daughters, we're comin' to your town
We're here for the slaughter, kick you when you're down
Kick you when you're down
[Chorus:]
We're not for the innocent, we're not for the innocent
We're not for the innocent, let the beast run wild
I've been damned, I've been cursed,
I've been guilty and abused
I spit the hangman in his face and hung him on his noose
Habitual threat, I got you in my claws
Gonna tan your hide, rip the flesh off your bones
Look me in the eye, and you're gonna turn to stone
You're gonna turn to stone
[chorus]
Better lock up your daughters, we're comin' to your town
Better pray we're not around
Let the beast run wild
[chorus... (to fade)]
Bad habits drip like honey, no tongue can lick me clean
I'm not of royal blood, I've never been discreet
Better lock up your daughters, we're comin' to your town
We're here for the slaughter, kick you when you're down
Kick you when you're down
[Chorus:]
We're not for the innocent, we're not for the innocent
We're not for the innocent, let the beast run wild
I've been damned, I've been cursed,
I've been guilty and abused
I spit the hangman in his face and hung him on his noose
Habitual threat, I got you in my claws
Gonna tan your hide, rip the flesh off your bones
Look me in the eye, and you're gonna turn to stone
You're gonna turn to stone
[chorus]
Better lock up your daughters, we're comin' to your town
Better pray we're not around
Let the beast run wild
[chorus... (to fade)]
