Be Still My Heart

Now this is Christmas the way it ought to be celebrated. I think that's the best Christmas tree I've ever seen.

  1. It's beginning to look a lot like fish-men
    Everywhere I go;
    From the minute I got to town
    And started to look around
    I thought these ill-bred people's gillslits showed.
    I'm beginning to hear a lot of fish-men
    Right outside my door,
    As I try to escape in fright
    To the moonlit Innsmouth night
    I can hear some more.

    They speak with guttural croaks and to hear them provokes
    A profound desire to flee
    Their eyes never blink and quite frankly they stink
    Like a carcass washed up from the sea.

    I wish I'd paid attention to that crazy drunken man.
    He tried to warn me all about old Marsh's Deep One clan.

    It's beginning to look a lot like Fish-men
    Everywhere I go;
    They can dynamite Devil Reef,
    but that'll bring no relief,
    Y'ha N'thlei is deeper than they know.
    I'll continue to see a lot of fish-men
    That I guarantee.
    For the fish-man I really fear
    is the one who's in the mirror
    And he looks like me.
    He looks just like me.
