The Misfits want my girls' skulls.

I grew up listening to punk. I remember loving "skulls" by the Misfits (lyrics at bottom):



And then I got into the 'alternative' music too like the blake babies and lemonheads and buffalo tom and I heard the version by the lemonheads:



Isn't the lemonheads' version just so damned pretty? How can anyone make these lyrics pretty?

~Skulls~

The corpses all hang headless and limp
Bodies with no surprises
And the blood drains down like devils rain
We'll bathe tonight

I want your skulls I need your skulls
I want your skulls I need your skulls

Demon I am and face I peel
To see your skin turned inside out, cause
Gotta have you on my wall
Gotta have you on my wall, cause

I want your skulls I need your skulls
I want your skulls I need your skulls

Go

Collect the heads of little girls and
Put em on my wall
Hack the heads off little girls and
Put em on my wall

Oh oh

I want your skulls I need your skulls
