They call me The Dragon, son of Dracul
Ottomans know me as nothing but cruel
Serves them right for keeping me in a cage
Held my brother and I each trapped as a hostage
Chorus:
Centuries of fear
belong to me
Nightmare bringer
to the children of Turkey
The Prince of Punishment
lurks in your dreams
Corpses as embellishment
Impaled for me!
Entertainment is all that you're worth
Staring at the heavens as you're pinned to the earth
Splinters inside of you, the point protrudes from your mouth
The other end is sodomizing you down south
---Prisoners will be maimed and tortured, brought to their knees
My ears are filled with their desperate pleas
Boil them, behead them, skin them alive
Disembowel, mutilate, don't let them revive!---
For me to be respected
Insolence is corrected
Bring them to submission
They'll die by my permission
Surrounded by the dying souls in the field
Their lives run out as I finish my meal
My reputation through the decades has grown
Vlad the Impaler is how I am known!
(Chorus x1)
The enemy army is no match for mine
We wait in the forest, concealed by the pine
Slaughter every single one of their men
Let the crows pick at their carcasses, not to rise again!
Centuries of fear
belong to me
Nightmare bringer
to the children of Turkey
The Prince of Punishment
lurks in your dreams
Corpses as embellishment
Impaled for me!
Entertainment is all that you're worth
Staring at the heavens as you're pinned to the earth
Splinters inside of you, the point protrudes from your mouth
The other end is sodomizing you down south
For me to be respected
Insolence is corrected
Bring them to submission
They'll die by my permission
They call me The Dragon, son of Dracul
Ottomans know me as nothing but cruel
Serves them right for keeping me in a cage
Held my brother and I each trapped as a hostage
Surrounded by the dying souls in the field
Their lives run out as I finish my meal
My reputation through the decades has grown
Vlad the Impaler is how I am known!
Centuries of fear
belong to me
Nightmare bringer
to the children of Turkey
The Prince of Punishment
lurks in your dreams
Corpses as embellishment
Impaled for me!
