Satan's Second Sitting Room (The Shelves of Nether)

from Blurple by Lady Birdface

/

about

This house and these objects are real and exist in my hood. The meaning I've attached to them is mere whimsy. OR IS IT?

lyrics

There's a house across the way,
festooned with many things,
to please the passer-by,
give your imagination wings

Half a packet of ancient meat,
an empty box of eggs,
all manner of discarded treats,
an armchair's missing legs

Take your pick from the shelves,
where could be the harm?
Have a rummage, have a delve,
you've tripped a devilish alarm

A 70s flock stool,
a saucer filled with hair,
but what fate will befall you -
it comes direct from Satan's lair

Take your Cantonese hate verse,
your psychedelic owl,
sooner or later will come the curse,
Satan's on the prowl

Below the shelves of wonder,
a bygone evil feeds,
your soul he'll plunder,
and get you doing his filthy deeds
