lyrics

I was born in the middle of a screaming match
Cleaned up sent to live with monks
Raised up by Arabian wolves
Grew up in the eye of a storm
A gentleman crossed with a fiend
Oh and I do say
Oh and I do say

Hungry Ghost Extraordinaire
I believe we've been everywhere
We sing so sweetly in the annals of the world
These siren songs for misanthrope ears

I grew old in the shadow of a prison wall
Commemorated then thrown away
Memorialized but wanted alive
Canonized yet despised by all
A cautionary tale for the kids
Oh and I do say
Oh and I do say

Hungry Ghost Extraordinaire
I believe we've been everywhere
We sing so sweetly in the annals of the world
These siren songs for misanthrope ears

WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT ME IS TRUE
BUT WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT YOU IS TOO
WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT ME IS TRUE
BUT WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT YOU IS TOO

Hungry Ghost Extraordinaire
I believe we've been everywhere
We sing so sweetly in the annals of the world
These siren songs for misanthrope ears
This violent hymn through halcyon tears

And what they say about me is true
But what they say about you is too
