"NECROMANTIC SORCERY"
from the album NEVER ENDING NIGHTMARES
Music Written and Performed by Rogga Johansson
Guest Guitar Solo by Lasse Pyykkö
Lyrics by Jill Girardi and Tanya Sim
Enter the jungle of accursed greed
Follow the dark path soaked in unborn blood
The witchdoctor waits with Secrets Untold
Black magic rituals from time unknown
Present to the Shaman a stillborn child
Prepared in accordance with ancient rites
Its flesh dried out and petrified as stone
Anointed with oil from the chin of a corpse
At the next full moon in the witching hour
Sepulchral incantations raise the dead
With skin greenish black and eyes glowing red
In hellborn evil, The Toyol is raised
Necromantic Sorcery binds the slave
Eternally serving through generations
Commands of its master must be obeyed
Sent out to steal in the shadow of night
Creeping out in search of all hidden wealth
Beady red eyes pierce every secret place
Small claws grasping every treasured object
Its victims mourn with the coming of dawn
Diabolic child nursed with human blood
Murderous intentions towards the masters' sons
Wealth and power come at too great a cost
Soul forever damned to the Final Hell
EXPLANATION: TOYOL (Malaysia/South East Asia)
The Toyol is the resurrected spirit of a stillborn fetus or baby who died young. With the use of Black Magic, a "Bomoh" (witchdoctor) can revive the baby and use it to acquire ill gotten gains. The exact method of resurrection is a closely guarded secret but has been said to involve the petrified body of the fetus as well as a ghoulish oil called "Dagu Minyak" which is made from boiling the chin of a corpse until the oil is extracted. Once revived, The Toyol is sent out to steal money and jewelry from its neighbors.
