In The Clutches Of The Diabolical Sgt. Stiletto Songtext / Lyric

The scent of danger brings me to the edge of panic

Now I'm caught in the plot that was thought up

Satanic like mayo – dayo- daylight comes

And I want to get home before I'm burnt by the sun






I wanna be free in peace love and harmony

But my Miranda be vanishing like Carmen see

Check the scripture a picture emerges

Bells chime at the first sign of the seven scourges

And the first is the sleeper steeped in the force

Of the dark side astride behold a pale horse

And the source be above the law like Segal

The thought of his stare raise my hair like Vidal

He stalks where I walk, setting soldiers at the border

Hope to catch Guevara acing out of order

"cause I eat a fool like Ozzy eats a bat"

The fact is I was kidnapped and thrown in the back

Of the unmarked van destination unknown

In league with the intrigue a la Oliver Stone

for starting revolutions 33 1/3

"You're mine now," was all I heard



In the jurisdiction mark the prediction

'Cause the truth is stranger than fiction

from the get go the watcher says so

beware Sgt. Stiletto



J Guevara takes the 5th to those who would drag me under

Like coyote to roadrunner

Now the population faces incarceration

while select serpents reach certain circles of illumination

Looking over my shoulder I'm seeing shadows on the walls

Turning pallid at the thought of the gallows

Seven gables loom before me can't neglect the connection

Seven are the signs of the cross on the pendulum

Stiletto, the name of the nemesis

Guevara, trapped within the labyrinth

Assassins be passing me and I amongst their midst

Before my name is known I slip into the mist

I exist, this specialist, who persists

To vent the secret entrance I decipher the hieroglyphs

Tada! The creaking floor reveals the door

Voila! I emerge into the crypt



In the jurisdiction mark the prediction

'Cause the truth is stranger than fiction

from the get go the watcher says so

beware Sgt. Stiletto



Strapped to the rack and the terror's on

Damn I feel like the man from the marathon

I gotta bust out or I'm dusted like Hoffman

I feel like the Minnow, shit I'm lost



My keys unlock mysteries unknown

I roam his catacombs like Jones

Float like a butterfly seek revenge like Khan

I've got dreams of scenes beyond like Papillion



I'm making a date with the undertaker

As Stiletto sends me off to meet my maker



I charge past the guards I come like Kool Aid

And bust through the wall like Big Jim Slade



You flip the switch and you fall for the trap

Your friends have fallen in and you can't get 'em back

There's a dragon underground you heard the bellow

Beware Sgt. Stiletto

In the jurisdiction mark the prediction

'Cause the truth is stranger than fiction

from the get go the watcher says so

beware
