"Black Shuck" lyrics - THE DARKNESS

THE DARKNESS
"Black Shuck"
(Dan Hawkins / Justin Hawkins / Frankie Poullain)

In a town in the east, oh
The parishioners were visited upon by a curious beast
And his eyes numbered but one and shone like the sun
And a glance beckoned the immediate loss of a cherished one
It was the coming of the

[Chorus:]
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck)
That dog don't give a fuck
Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck)
That dog don't give a fuck

Flames licked 'round the sacred spire
And the congregation's last line of defense was engulfed in fire
As the flaming priest stepped into the firing line
On the business end of a beam of despair;
God, he took his own life
During the coming of the

[Chorus:]
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck)
That dog don't give a fuck
Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck)
That dog don't give a fuck

[Bridge:]
A nimbus of blue light surrounds a crimson paw
As he takes another fatal swipe
At the Blythburgh church door

[Chorus:]
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck)
That dog don't give a fuck
Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck)
That dog don't give a fuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck)
That dog don't give a fuck
Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck) Black Shuck
(Black Shuck)
That dog don't give a fuck

Woof!
