A Cthulhu Hymnal

Gotta Do Away With You

By James A. Westbrooks. To the tune of ``Only Wanna Be with You'' by Hootie and the Blowfish:

Yog-Sothoth is from a different world,
He always laughs aloud when he looks at all the girls.
You think I'm crazy and maybe it's a sin,
I did the ritual that will make him be my friend.
There's just one thing left to do:
I gotta sacrifice a girl like you!

You look so sad, but there's nothing I can do,
I really hoped he'd never catch a glimpse of you.
Took a chance, but he said,
``Yeah, you really love her but I gotta have her head.''
So it's what I gotta do,
I gotta do away with you!
Then I'll be so cool,
I gotta do away with you!

Turn on a little Thicketts,
Just to set the mood,
I say ``That song is great'', you ask me what a Shoggoth is.
Well, they're kinda big and gray,
And a little rought at play,
They cost about a million bucks and when you die they'll worship me.
I'm sorry you're unlucky,
I gotta do away with you.
Ain't Lovecraft so cool?
I gotta do away with you!

Yeah, I'm guessin' I'll miss you,
I gotta do away with you!
Yeah, then I'll be so cool!
I gotta do away with you!

Sometimes I'm happy that I'll never die,
Don't sit and laugh at me 'cause you know ol' Yog don't lie.
You know you're jealous, so just let me say,
You're cute my baby but your head's going away!
There's just one thing left to do:
I gotta do away with you!
Now don't call me his fool!
I gotta do away with you!
No I won't be missin' you!
I gotta do away with you!
I gotta do away with you!
I gotta do away with you!
I gotta do away with you!
