There's the worm, there's the snail
There's the sting in the tail
Of the scorpion heart

Scorn the free, mock the just
Freeze the laugh, tease with lust
And the scorpion heart

Seize the earth, bleed the gale
Bite the snow, drive the nail
To the scorpion heart

Twist the stake, pierce the crust
Spill the corpse, dust to dust
Of the scorpion heart

Spew the blood, chew the brain
Drag the spleen, nag the pain
Of the scorpion heart
