Axeman Lyrics - Arise - Amebix

Lock up your children the axeman is coming 

Lock up your children the axeman is coming 

Lock up your children the axeman is running 

Lock up your children he's here! 

He's coming SLAUGHTER! 

Is he from the army or the S.A.S.? 

Rejected and shunned, left out on his own 

The skills he acquired are put to the test 

The tearing of flesh and the pulping of bone! 

He's coming SLAUGHTER! 

It's late and it's dark but one walks the streets 

An axe in his hand, no glint in his eye 

This mindless machine, he butcher, you meat! 

Calm and collected, but twisted inside! 

He is here! SLAUGHTER!
