The rain is falling softly all around the garden, see the roses creep The house is dark except for one small window glowing, he is not asleep Working late as usual, sewing skins and making eyes Reconstructing creatures on display to win a prize Recreating every kind of beast Using canvas blue and bits of wire underneath the hides Beasts pieced together with such painful care, constructed everywhere he goes
Lazerander Filchy is his name, and taxidermy is his trade Never does he make two of the same, his work is of the highest grade He's got it made.
Time is sleeping while he's prowling in the night, how stealthily he creeps The taxidermist lies in wait for you and me, he always plays for keeps Lurking in the murky glow, always cool, he went to school Only hunting on the darkest evenings as a rule, he's no fool Soon he's back he's brought in from the night On the laboratory specimen working by the candlelight reflected in his burning eyes He isn't otherwise disposed
Lazerander Filchy is his name, and taxidermy is his trade Never let him catch you in his game, you'll end up in his dream arcade You're not ?
