Reptile Songtext
von Helloween

Coming from the sewerage, creepin′ thru the pipes
Born from modern chemistry, a thing that is alive
Growing in this rotten crap at places no one wipes
Eating rats and stinking shit and all it needs to thrive

The scientists got no way to fight
For they can't find any weak point to get rid of it right
You live your life and you don′t know what's goin' on
You just can′t stop a thinking that the officials do you wrong

You′re sometimes wonderin' what the hell bit your baby′s arm
And the nuns at the holy mission can't keep the tramps from harm
Even thieves around dark corners too scared to leave the door
Frustrated businessmen needing a wank can′t find themselves a whore

You won't believe ′till you know that it's real
From the pain in your stomach and the horror that you feel
You need a shit so you head off for the loo
You're coming to the bog, now what you gonna do?


There′s the Reptile (reptile)
Just see his eyes
Reptile (reptile)
Can you see the beast arise?

Reptile (reptile)
Creeping up on you
Reptile (reptile)
There′s nothing left that you can do

And there's the Reptile (reptile)
Hidden ′till now
Reptile (reptile)
But now it's here, you don′t know how

Reptile (reptile)
Just watch it grow
Reptile (reptile)
And there's no more human being left but you

You
You
