Artist/Band: The Mountain Goats
Lyrics for Song: The Best Ever Death Metal Band In Denton
Lyrics for Album: All Hail West Texas [2002]



The Best Ever Death Metal Band out of Denton

was a couple of guys who'd been friends since grade school

One's was named Syrus, the other was Jeff,

and they practiced twice a week in Jeff's bedroom

The Best Ever Death Metal Band out of Denton

never settled on a name

But the top three contenders after weeks of debate

were Satan's Fingers, and The Killers, and the Hospital Bombs



Jeff and Syrus believed in their hearts

they were headed for stage lights and lear jets and fortune and fame

So in script, they made prominent use of a pentagram,

they stencilled their drumheads and guitars with their names

And this was how Syrus got sent to the school

where they told him he'd never be famous

And this was why Jeff, in the letters he'd write to his friend,

helped develop a plan to get even

When you punish a person for dreaming his dream,

don't expect him to thank you or forgive you

The Best Ever Death Metal Band out of Denton

will in time both outpace and outlive you



Hail Satan, Hail Satan tonight

Hail Satan, Hail Hail
