Venom - Hounds Of Hell Lyrics

Summoning the Hounds of Hell
To do my deadly deeds
In the magic pentagram
I plant satanic seeds
Summing forth the elements
Lightning, thunder and rain
Mortals fear this ritual
They think it is a game


Laughing, crying
Never dying
Feel the Earth's core bleed
Synchronizing, perfect timing
Watch the Heavens scream


For the Hounds of Hell!
