Funeral Lyrics

"We are gathered here tonight,
to lay to rest Abigail la Fey,
whom we now know was first born dead
on the seventh day of July, 1777.
Abigail must be nailed to her coffin with seven silver spikes,
one through each arm, hand, and knee,
and let the last of the seven be drawn through her mouth
so that she may never arise and cause evil again.
Who will be the first?"
"I, O'Brian of the Black Horsemen...."
