The Thing

(album: Hazardous Mutation - 2005)

Antarctica winter 1982
Research was going steady and there was nothing much to do
In the distance a lone wolf flees
But no one knows the carnage that this animal will bring

Violence unfolds
Assaulted by Norwegian guests
They'll have to die like all the rest
Searching through the snow
Discovering the frozen corpse
Of something that's not of this earth
The creature comes forth
An evil makes its presence known
Attempting to create a clone
Nowhere to go
And something grim is at hand
Something in this arctic land

The Thing
No one knows the hell it will bring
It's got you from the inside
It's taking over your life
Intentions so unexplained
Until it gets a hold of your brain
Hiding till the damage is done
Killing them off one by one

The sense of fear begins to grow
And no one has protection
From this dangerous infection
Their fates in the hands of the unknown
And nerves are quickly blowing
While The Thing is steadily growing

The Thing
No one knows the hell it will bring
It's got you from the inside
It's taking over your life
Intentions so unexplained
Until it gets a hold of your brain
Hiding till the damage is done
Killing them off one by one

Whom to trust they'll never know
And nothing can contain a creature unexplained
Half the crews dead more to go
Somehow it's got to stop and now McReadys getting pissed off

Now there's nothing left to do
Discovering who's human is what this final test will prove
Deadly results are what this test brings
But it's the final hope to unveil his gruesome being

Violence unfolds
The test was the solution
Now it's time for execution
Searching through the snow
And now Blair is the last Thing left
He'll fight until his dying breath
The creature comes forth
But this will be the final clash
And kills it with a giant blast
Nowhere to go
Our hero's fate is finally sealed
The camp is lost The Thing is killed
