"'''Luci in the Sky with Demons'''" is the sixth and final track on the 1992 release ''[[The Family Jams]]''. Several lines of lyrics were later reworked for "[[Angel with the Scabbed Wings]]" and "[[Man That You Fear]]", two songs from the band's 1996 album ''[[Antichrist Superstar]]''. The song title was inspired by the Beatles song ''''Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds'''', the capital letters here used by both bands spell out L-S-D, commonly believed to be a reference to the drug.

== Lyrics ==
+
I'll spread me open, stick to my ribs
+
Are all your infants in abortion cribs
+
You run like roaches, you try to die
+
I know your poison in our space we'll lie
+
+
To an obscene god we will dance and spit
+
The skin is thin, in our beds we sit
+
We take off our rings and we kneel
+
Our scabbed knees are so slow to heal
+
+
Stretch a little boy hole for looking-glass people
+
I don't want to be me,I don't want to fear, no
+
Mama's got a scarecrow
+
Got to let the corn grow
+
A man can't always reap what he sows
+
+
Cut, cut, cut in pantomime, mime, mime
+
I'll be your devil if you'll admit you're mine
+
+
Leave yourself to be ultra-here
+
The chill of fall is always crawling near
+
Spiders in the flowers never know their smell
+
The barbers here know secrets they will never tell
+
+
Cut, cut, cut in pantomime, mime, mime
+
I'll be your devil if you'll admit you're mine"
