  • I'm sure you've never had this meal before
    We're still open, stay and have some more
    It's been raised upon your body and your soul
    Total control!
    Plenty of seating
    You know that you're eating the cannibals!

    Taking till you've got no more to give
    Building boxes where you used to live
    The word out on the street is no delay
    Do it today!
    Come to the meeting
    It's true that we're eating the cannibals!

    Eating the cannibals!

    Don't close your eyes
    We'll come while you're sleeping
    You reach for the skies
    Now we are calling
    It's all falling down

    Come on in, we love our clientele
    You're here to taste the vengeance, so you shall
    It's been raised upon your body and your bones
    But now you're not alone!

    Enough with the greeting
    'Cause soon you'll be eating the cannibals!

  • Matt from Houston, TxI would hardly say heaven and hell are just black sabbath with dio. Obviously the dude who writes these "songfacts" for bands he doesn't know about has nothing more than time to kill
