King Diamond lyrics : "The Crypt"

[Diamond/Diamond]

The moon is outside but it can't get in

Almost dead from his nightly sin
Jonathan is deep asleep, a perfect time... to visit the heep


Down the halllway to the lair, down down the slippery stairs
Abigail is in the crypt, a lantern in her hand


The secret of the crypt
A coffing made for a child, wondering who is inside
Oh Abigail... and off comes the lid


The smell is sick
Mummified infront on its side

A name was cut deep in the lid with a knife
And it said: Abigail


[Solo: Andy]

A silvery necklace was round the mummy's neck

It had wings and was sharpened round the edge
"What are you doing here", Henry had come in unseen


Abigail pulled on the necklace and the little mummy's head
Was separated clean from it's tiny neck
Then up up up, up into his throat

Twisting and turning it, oh she couldn't stop

Brandon Henry was going down in a pool of blood

He was on the ground

[Solo: Mike]


There's an eerie glow in the crypt down below
Mummified infant on its side

"Gotta go... gotta run... I'll be back for you Little One"

In the crypt Abigail's twin is searching for a home

Abigail's twin is searching for her Mom
But Mommy's in the floor and it's made of stone
Her mommy's in the floor and she doesn't know

Oh she doesn't know, she doesn't know
Will she ever know.........
