How many people here know their Lovecraft...?
Yeah?
A few. OK. This one's for you.
Hit it!
(Music:Something Stupid)
(Audience laughs)
The time is right, your perfume fills my head
The stars are red, and oh the night's so blue
And then I go and spoil it all, by saying something stupid like
Iä! Shub-Niggurath! The Black Goat of the woods with a thousand young!
(Audience laughs)
All right, if you get that, you've kind of...
(Music:That's Amore)
When a being from the stars puts your brain in a jar...
... that's a Mi-Go.
Good! Like it! (Audience laughs)
(Music:Agadoo)
A- za- thoth, thoth, thoth
In the centre of all space
A- za- thoth, thoth, thoth
Destroyer of the human race
(Record scratch)
(Music:The Model)
In the catacombs, there is a sect
A foetid dog-like monster eating human flesh
Putrid corpses make him squeal and drool
Pickman's model is a real-life ghoul
(Music slows to a stop)
Nope, no Kraftwerk fans in, then?
(Audience laughs)
(Music:Jingle Bells)
(Audience cheers)
Tentacles, tentacles, ripping off my face
Deep Ones, Dholes and Cthonians are in league with the beings from space - oh!
Shudde M'ell, bloody hell, all my hope is gone
Oh, how cursed is the day I first read the Necronomicon
(Audience laughs)
Thank you!
Who likes a sing-along?
Neither do I.
(Music:Three Lions (Football's Coming Home))
How far... how far through the crowd can I get?
Hang on, can you go all the way to the back? We can go all the way to the back!
There we go. Fantastic. Crowd-surfing!
Three lobes on his eye
You can't stop the dreaming
This is going to hurt
His minions are teeming
No peace at the gate
The Black Pharoah still scheming
Driving you insane
Until you wake up screaming
A thousand different forms
And every one a nightmare
The Haunter of the Dark
Nyarlathotep's here...
The burning eye! The burning eye is coming!
The three-lobed burning eye!
To see him is to die!
(Audience cheers)
Thank you!
JC: I've got to go home like this... You're all right...
(Audience laughs)
