Lurking in the shadows, rivers start to freeze He's the curse of charity, root of all disease Cross his palm with silver, your money turns to lead Every little thought becomes obscene He penetrates the gloom his eyes dead bright Call him monster call him evil wretched sodomite He's offering the subtle sins, freely left beside the bins See his nails and teeth and conscience gleam Griminsky's soul Gargoyle on the church wall, poison in the graves Fiend of all misfortune, God of all we crave Guardian of forbidden fruit and hidden hot hareems Delights we only visit in our dreams Clearing out the gutters, winter's at its might Call him vulture call him evil wretched parasite Courting our disgraces, flirting with the ladies Nothing like the kind of man he seems Griminsky's soul Guardian of the secret, sordid keys of shame Call him foul but right now just look the other way Captain of hypocrisy, lord of lust and buggery Infidel and pox-begotten shade Griminsky's soul All nations know his name Fascination and blame Pretty paintings in cellars will forever bear the blame And hang in shame
