2. The Conjuring (5:04)
Welcome to out sanguinary sect of worship,
Feel at home in our black conventicle,
As we anathematise,
All of those who oppose us,
Don't summon the devil,
Don't call the priests,
If you need the strength,
The conjuring. Obey!!!
Behold the flames rise,
From the compass' cardinal points,
Burn the sacred oil,
And, with the ashes you'll annoint,
Arrange the symbols,
Of the wizard, and, magician,
Light the candles,
Place the parchment paper in position,
Between its leaves place,
The lash from a black cat's eye,
A straw of a broom,
Fold, and, burn, and, centralise,
Don't summon the devil,
Don't call the priests,
If you need the strength,
The conjuring,
I am the devil's advocate,
A salesman, if you will,
You know my name. [You know my name],
I met your father years ago,
Gave him what he'd please,
He called my name, you'll do the same,
I'm claiming what is mine by right,
It's time to close the deal,
You're bought and sold, bought and sold,
Come join me in my infernal depths,
Mephisto's hall of fame
I've got your soul, I've got your soul,
The conjuring. Obey!!!
Feel at home in our black conventicle,
As we anathematise,
All of those who oppose us,
Don't summon the devil,
Don't call the priests,
If you need the strength,
The conjuring. Obey!!!
Behold the flames rise,
From the compass' cardinal points,
Burn the sacred oil,
And, with the ashes you'll annoint,
Arrange the symbols,
Of the wizard, and, magician,
Light the candles,
Place the parchment paper in position,
Between its leaves place,
The lash from a black cat's eye,
A straw of a broom,
Fold, and, burn, and, centralise,
Don't summon the devil,
Don't call the priests,
If you need the strength,
The conjuring,
I am the devil's advocate,
A salesman, if you will,
You know my name. [You know my name],
I met your father years ago,
Gave him what he'd please,
He called my name, you'll do the same,
I'm claiming what is mine by right,
It's time to close the deal,
You're bought and sold, bought and sold,
Come join me in my infernal depths,
Mephisto's hall of fame
I've got your soul, I've got your soul,
The conjuring. Obey!!!
