Katrinah Josephina

Katrinah Josephina is no longer so they say
She disappeared one year ago and not a trace remains
All the theories are just hearsay as to why she disappeared
Some say she was abducted and some say she drowned in fear
And what a joy it is to be the only one who knows
Katrinah Josephina journeys ninety leagues below

She's singing the praises of angels and sages
Oh, when the pills wear off, the symptoms will return
You may have found relief the cause has still yet to be learned

As a child, she was quite mystified in searching for the soul
With spade in hand she soon began to dig a little hole
At one league and fifteen years she ventured down her tunneled plight
And was greeted by a troupe of dancing demons stanced to fight

Each demon bid her, "Say our names, as our names you should know
Until such time your chains will bind us follow where you go!"
And what a joy it is to be the only one who knows
Katrinah Josephina soon identified her foes!

Yes, she's still singing the praises of angels and sages
Oh, when the pills wear off, the demons will return
Unless you're brave enough to face the ruler of their world

After years upon the surface higher learning taught her well
The value of the human soul's a dollar earned in hell
So one year ago upon this night
She dragged me to her hole
Her waist was roped
"Don't dare let go!"
Her voice resounded from below

Keep singing the praises of angels and sages
'Cause when the pills wear off...
