The Lyrics
Merry Cthulhumas!
Hark! The crazy cultists say
Cthulhu sleeps in R'lyeh
Dead and dreaming but not gone
Writ in Necronomicon
Soon will come the feast of minds
He'll devour all mankind
Cthulhu will arise some day
And when he does, you all will pay
Hark! The crazy cultists say
Cthulhu sleeps in R'lyeh
Gather 'round, it's almost time
Distant stars almost aligned
Rising from cyclopean shores
Comes a beast that God abhors
Stare at his monstrosity, and
non-Euclidean geometry
Lock your doors and hide today
Then take the key, throw it away
Hark! The crazy cultists say
Cthulhu sleeps in R'lyeh
Cthulhu, master of the deep
Wakes from his eternal sleep
Death and pain is all he'll bring, with
Tentacles and dragons wings
Those not dead may 'ternal lie - and
With strange aeons, death may die
Call your pastor up today
Gather your friends and start to pray
Hark! The crazy cultists say
Cthulhu sleeps in R'lyeh
Cthulhu sleeps in R'lyeh
Dead and dreaming but not gone
Writ in Necronomicon
Soon will come the feast of minds
He'll devour all mankind
Cthulhu will arise some day
And when he does, you all will pay
Hark! The crazy cultists say
Cthulhu sleeps in R'lyeh
Gather 'round, it's almost time
Distant stars almost aligned
Rising from cyclopean shores
Comes a beast that God abhors
Stare at his monstrosity, and
non-Euclidean geometry
Lock your doors and hide today
Then take the key, throw it away
Hark! The crazy cultists say
Cthulhu sleeps in R'lyeh
Cthulhu, master of the deep
Wakes from his eternal sleep
Death and pain is all he'll bring, with
Tentacles and dragons wings
Those not dead may 'ternal lie - and
With strange aeons, death may die
Call your pastor up today
Gather your friends and start to pray
Hark! The crazy cultists say
Cthulhu sleeps in R'lyeh
When you all go caroling tomorrow, you can sing "Kuh-tu-lu" and "Khu-lu." Both are right so take your pick. It depends on the verse.
