Lyrics
[Blackie / big boss]
From the wild east
Full of anger, bloody slaver at his muzzle
His side covered with foam and moss
The black wolf dashes towards the center
His message is living death..
From the dark west
Insane and raging, bloody eye
Tongue and teeth full of venom
The grey hound dashes towards the center
His message is living death..
And all of a sudden they come to grips with each other
Carnage breaks up by main force
Bones are being broken, tendons torn
Then they drop dead to the pit
Their message is living death..
Dead bodies of the killed carcasses
Will decompose to venom in the pit
Draw this potion into silver
And drink it during ten sun-settings
Their message is living death..
The drink is disgusting
Stinking and smelly
The mightiest of all the magic spells
The supreme medicine - theriak
His effect is your immortality!
