Hell

Here they sit
talking rot
Saddam Hussein
and Pol Pot
Mao Tse Tung
bares his gnashers
at Idi Amin’s
and Emperor Bokassa’s

There he is
Josef Stalin
thick as thieves
with that old bore Lenin
Look at the two of them
putting the boot in
ranting and raving
and bitching ’bout Putin

Hell, hello!
It’s hell in here
Evil is a bore
with a big idea
Hell, hello!
What’s not to fear?
Love death not life
and make it hell in here

It’s a real no brainer
the blood just oozes
when Vlad the Impaler
meets the Ceaucescus
It’s getting mighty crowded
and hot as wasabi
but they’ll have to make room
for Robert Mugabe

Caligula
spits stale panini
at Adolf Hitler
and Mussolini
Napoleon
casts a withering sneer
at Kim Il-Sung
from North Korea

Hell, hello!
It’s hell in here
Evil is a bore
with a big idea
Hell, hello!
What’s not to fear?
Evil is a bore
which makes it hell in here 

Serial killers,
begging your pardon,
are beyond the pale
and so’s Osama Bin Laden
Heinrich Himmler’s
doing his best
to avoid the attentions
of Fred West
Ivan the Terrible
isn’t terribly nice
when Giles de Rais
seeks his advice

Hell, hello!
What’s not to fear?
Evil is a bore
which makes it hell in here
It’s hell in here

Hell, hello!
The big idea
Love death not life
and make it hell in here
It’s hell in here
Hell in here
