  • Milwaukee man led a fairly decent life
    Made a fairly decent living, had a fairly decent wife
    She killed him ah, sushi knife
    Now they're shopping for a fairly decent afterlife

    The werewolf is coming

    The fact is most obits are mixed reviews
    Life is a lottery, a lotta people lose
    And the winners, the grinners with money-colored eyes
    Eat all the nuggets, then they order extra fries

    The werewolf is coming (extra fries)
    The werewolf is coming, the werewolf's coming,
    The werewolf's coming, yes, the werewolf is coming

    I hear her howling, prowling on the hills
    The werewolf's coming, bill

    Ignorance and arrogance, a national debate
    Put the fight in Vegas, that's a billion dollar gate

    Revenues, pay per views, it should be pretty healthy
    The usual productions, and it all goes to the wealthy

    Still, the werewolf's coming
    Eh, the werewolf's coming

    I'm not complaining, just the opposite my friend
    I know it's raining, but we're coming to the end
    Of the world, of the lyin' and the spyin' through
    Oh, you don't know me?
    Ok, I don't know you, too

    The werewolf's coming, werewolf's coming up
    The werewolf's coming, and the the werewolf's coming
    The werewolf is coming, too

    I hear her howling, prowling on the hills
    The werewolf's coming

    You better stock up on water, canned goods off the shelves
    And loot some for the old folks who can't loot for themselves
    The doorbell's ringing, could be the elves
    But it's probably the werewolf, it's quarter to twelve
    And when it's midnight, and the wolf bites

    It's a full moon, she really got the appetite
    The werewolf's coming
    (The werewolf, the werewolf)
