WALK LIKE A DEEP ONE
Lyrics by Arthur Levesque -- bs@boog.org -- http://boog.org
(To the tune of "Walk Like An Egyptian" by The Bangles)

All the old people in Innsmouth
They have this strange gait, don't you know
If they move too quick (Iä-ha)
They're falling down like a beached minnow

All the bizarre men by the docks
They got these strange gills on their neck
Their church is locked (Iä-ha)
You worship there and you're damned to heck

Mongrel types in the sewer pipes chant
Iä, Iä...  Iä, Iä...
Walk like a De-eep One...

The old wino's in the know
He spins around then falls on the floor
He's got info (Iä-ha)
You give him drinks then he tells you more

You can die of fright out at night
Keep to shadows and avoid patrols
When the shoggoth comes (Iä-ha)
They're walking just like a De-eep One

All the fish in the harborplace say
Iä, Iä...  Iä, Iä...
Walk like a De-eep One...

On webbed feet up the street, bend your back
Drag your arms, then you're hopping back
Life is hard you know (Iä-ha)
You're immortal and your heart is black

If you want to run from the town
Just sneak around, follow the train track
Don't make a sound (Iä-ha)
Go for help, let the troops attack

In a submarine, the Marines
The Navy boys having all the fun
And the torpedoes (Iä-ha)
They're firing at all the De-eep Ones

All the flock in the Dagon church say
Iä, Iä...  Iä, Iä...
Walk like a De-eep One...
Walk like a De-eep One...
