[edit] Lyrics

    man in the front got a sinister grin, careen down highway 666
    we wanna go, crush the slow, as the pitchfork bends the needles grow
    my arms are wheels, my legs are wheels, my blood is pavement
    we're gonna ride to the abbey of thelema, to the abbey of thelema
    blood is pavement
    the grill in the front is my sinister grin, bugs in my teeth make me sick sick sick
    the objects may be larger than they appear in the mirror
    my arms are wheels, my legs are wheels, my blood is pavement
    we're gonna ride to the abbey of thelema, to the abbey of thelema
    blood is pavement
    "when you ride you're ridden, when you ride, you're ridden"
    i am fueled by filth and fury
    do what I will, I will hurry there, there
    my arms are wheels, my legs are wheels, my blood is pavement
    blood is pavement
