“The Werewolf Song”
story background:
it’s a little ditty about 2 brothers and a lycanthrope…….
it’s loosely based on the original wolfman movie, the one where larry talbot gets bitten by the werewolf,
and he see’s the pentagram in his hand; he knows he’s phucked,
so he goes to the old gypsy woman who knows about these things,
to find a cure, and she basically tells him the only thing for him to do, is to kill himself……
quite the bum deal.
anyway, these 2 brothers have been partying all night, drunk as skunks,
and one of them staggers out into the moor, and proceeds to meets his maker.
the remaining brother wants revenge, but has sobered up now,
and figures out that he’d better get some kind of ammunition…
….so he goes to see the gypsy-witch, to get some aconite (wolfsbane) and a prayer here and a Spell there,
and he believes that he is well prepared, and he goes out to the moor to get his revenge.
but that’s not what he gets……

“The Werewolf Song”
Written by RF Gilliland
Nightime, on the moor
drank up all the mead
mist is in the air
full moon, did the deed.
never saw the evil…
that poor ole son of a bitch
felt the claws that gripped his throat
yeah, he was dead without a twitch.
"it's your brother down on the moor,
with his head down at his feet!"
drink the aconite, tonight
toast the witches curse
pray to whoever you believe in
to pass over you the worst
it's your brother on the moor,
with his head down at his feet
and the debt has not been paid in full
will you, your maker, meet?
run into the moor
and see the evil eye
upon you, cast a glance,
and the payment, it is nigh.
