(Herbert West is my lab partner) (Verse 1) I woke up this morning with a pain in my neck I looked at the clock Shit gotta run I’m gonna miss class got to the chem lab before the last bell And over the PA another girl is missing That’s the third girl this week [Spoken word, male lead voice] I think her name was Betsy another normal day for the town of Arkham And out of nowhere he’s in your face, creepy West creepy Herbert West (Chorus) Down in the dark holes of Miskantonic university is a weirdness that should not be It’s a creepy eerie feeling Like something is in the corner of your eye Lurking and planning your demise (Verse 2) He sitting next to me with a weird tray cover in front of him I take a peek to see the professor’s head staring at me [spoken word, male lead voice] That’s disgusting The dissecting frog in front of us Herbert Stabbed it with a syringe that had the screen creepy shit The thing popped up, hopped around the class (Maniacal laughing) (Chorus) Down in the dark holes of Miskantonic university is a weirdness that should not be It’s a creepy eerie feeling Like something is in the corner of your eye Lurking and planning your demise (Verse 3) I got back to my room. I’ve been feeling kind of shitty. The back of my neck, screaming, and pain And there he was there in the doorway Creepy Herbert West [Spoken word male not lead singers voice] “You’re perfect for my experiment” [male lead vocal] The room started spinning. I fell to the ground. Herbert turned me on my stomach and stuck a needle in my neck There goes that green shit again (Chorus ) Down in the dark holes of Miskantonic university is a weirdness that should not be It’s a creepy eerie feeling Like something is in the corner of your eye Lurking and planning your demise (Bridge ) When I woke up I was strapped to a gurney Above me a shelf of heads on trays [spoken word, male lead voice] Hey… I found Betsy……. [spoken word male lead voice] Hi Betsy She rolled her eyes Herbert grinning looking at me with a hacksaw [Spoken word male not lead singers voice] “This will hurt just a little bit” [male lead vocal] Holy shit Now my head is on one of those trays (Outro) If you happen to go to Arkham I suggest you keep on rolling Cause if you stay here, your head‘s gonna wind up on a tray too (End chorus ) Down in the dark holes of Miskantonic university is a weirdness that should not be It’s a creepy eerie feeling Like something is in the corner of your eye Lurking and planning your demise (And guitar solo and bass drum hit ) [spoken word, male lead voice] Well, least I don’t have to worry about midterms Hey Betsy , what are you doing Friday night [spoken word female voice] “Hell no…not if you were the last head on earth “
