- Such Horrible Things
Creature Feature Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sit back now
Let me tell you a tale
Where justice does not prevail

About an ill-fated life
So very full of strife
Where two wrongs do not make a right
So

When I was born
I did surely scorn
My proud parent's name
Then their lives went down the drain
Drove them insane
My birth was a curse
I bit the nurse
Oh, but I love the worst

I deserve to be slowly submersed
Dried out then laid in a hearse

When I was two
I poured super glue
Into my fathers hair
As he sat unaware
In his arm chair
Much to his dismay
Had to cut it all away
Oh, but it felt great

I deserve to be cut and filleted
Then tossed about in disarray
Until the pieces melt away

I am not a bad man
Even though I do bad things
Very bad things
Such horrible things
But it's not quite what it seems
(Not quite what he seems)
Not quite what I seem

Aw, hell
It's exactly what it seems

When I was four
I'd wait by the door
With a knife in my hand
And a most devious plan
It would be quite grand
As the mail fell through the slot
The sharp edge he got
Oh, but I love the thought

I deserve to be tied in a knot
Broken bones and blood clots

When I was six
I used to trick
The next door neighbor's son
In the woods we would run
Time for fun
Hide-and-seek has a cost
He would be forever lost
Oh, but I love to scoff

I deserve to have my head lopped off
Hidden and covered in moss
Until this memory's forgot

I am not a bad man
Even though I do bad things
Very bad things
Such horrible things
But it's not quite what it seems
(Not quite what he seems)
Not quite what I seem

Aw, hell
It's exactly what it seems

When I was eight
I used to hate
The color of my house
So as quiet as a mouse
I burned it down
To the ground
When no one was around
Oh, but I love the sound

I deserve to be quickly put down
Rotting six feet underground

When I was ten
I used to pretend
To drown in the sea
'Til they'd come to rescue me
Then preceed
To laugh in their face
Such a disgrace
Oh, but I love the taste

I deserve to have my brains displaced
All over the fireplace
Until this life has been erased

I am not a bad man
Even though I do bad things
Very bad things
Such horrible things
But it's not quite what it seems
(Not quite what he seems)
Not quite what I seem

Aw, hell
It's exactly what it seems

When I was twelve
I used to delve
Into evil schemes
Just to elicit screams
Boost my self-esteem
Pushed my sister down a well
She just fell
Oh, but I love to dwell

I deserve to roast deep down in hell
Where no one can hear me yell

When I was fourteen
Nothing much happened

Well, there was that one time

I am not a bad man
Even though I do bad things
Very bad things
Such horrible things
But it's not quite what it seems
(Not quite what he seems)
Not quite what I seem

Aw, hell
It's exactly what it seems

When I was sixteen
Life was frightening
My brother was quite dull
So with laughter in my skull
Pushed him in a hole
Then buried him alive
He barely survived
Oh, but I love the cries

I deserve to be battered and fried
In an electric chair that's set on high

Now that I'm eighteen
I still hate things
From this padded cell I call my home
No friends, no phone
No life to call my own

Here I will lie
Until the very day I die
Until my blood begins to dry
And I return to the darkness from whence I came

So

I am not a bad man
Even though I do bad things
Very bad things
Such horrible things
But it's not quite what it seems
Not quite what I seem





Aw, hell
I’m exactly what I seem

Overall Meaning

"Such Horrible Things" is a song by Creature Feature that tells a disturbing story of a man who indulges in harmful behavior from the moment he was born. The song is a tale of a psychopath who seems to justify his actions but also admits that he deserves to be punished for his deeds. He begins the story by stating that justice does not always prevail, and from then on, he goes on to describe his deeds at different stages of his life. He talks about biting the nurse soon after he was born and how he poured super glue in his father's hair when he was at the age of two. When he was four, he would wait by the door with a knife, and when his mailman father came back home, he would cut himself, imagining the scene of his body lying on the floor, and it would give him satisfaction. The man eventually ends up in a padded cell where he belongs, reflecting on the horrible things he has done.


The lyrics of the song are meant to be taken as a cautionary tale about how important it is to recognize cruel behavior and mental illness early on. The song may seem shocking and horrifying, but it serves as an allegory for the dangers of ignoring early signs of psychosis and the harm that can come from enabling someone with violent tendencies. The song also brings to light the importance of recognizing and addressing mental health issues at an early age before they spiral out of control.

Sit back now
Relax and listen to my story


Let me tell you a tale
I have a story to share with you


Where justice does not prevail
The story is about a life where justice is not present


About an ill-fated life
The story revolves around an unfortunate life


So very full of strife
The life is filled with difficulties


Where two wrongs do not make a right
Committing wrongdoings does not justify previous ones


When I was born
From the moment I was born


I did surely scorn
I rejected my parents' name


My proud parent's name
The name my parents gave me


Then their lives went down the drain
Their lives became miserable and unhappy after my birth


Drove them insane
It made them crazy


My birth was a curse
My birth was seen as a terrible thing


I bit the nurse
I caused harm and hurt to others


Oh, but I love the worst
I am drawn towards the most terrible things


I deserve to be slowly submersed
I deserve a terrible fate


Dried out then laid in a hearse
End up dead and buried


When I was two
As a two-year-old


I poured super glue
I did something terrible


Into my fathers hair
I applied super glue to my father's hair


As he sat unaware
When he wasn't paying attention


In his arm chair
While he was sitting down


Much to his dismay
He was unhappy about it


Had to cut it all away
It had to be removed completely


Oh, but it felt great
I enjoyed doing it


I deserve to be cut and filleted
I should be punished horribly


Then tossed about in disarray
And be treated badly


Until the pieces melt away
Until there is nothing left of me


I am not a bad man
I try to deny my evil nature


Even though I do bad things
Even though I commit terrible acts


But it's not quite what it seems
I think I have a reason for doing what I do


(Not quite what he seems)
Though not everyone may agree with me


Aw, hell
Oh no


It's exactly what it seems
I am precisely what I appear to be


When I was four
At the age of four


I'd wait by the door
I would set up an ambush


With a knife in my hand
Prepared to do something terrible


And a most devious plan
I had a wicked idea


It would be quite grand
It was an elaborate and impressive scheme


As the mail fell through the slot
When the mail arrived


The sharp edge he got
The mail carrier was injured by my trap


Oh, but I love the thought
I am pleased by my evil deeds


I deserve to be tied in a knot
I deserve a terrible punishment


Broken bones and blood clots
I should be physically harmed


When I was six
As a six-year-old


I used to trick
I would deceive people


The next door neighbor's son
My neighbor's child


In the woods we would run
We would play in the forest


Time for fun
We would enjoy ourselves


Hide-and-seek has a cost
My idea of fun involved hurting others


He would be forever lost
I caused someone's disappearance


Oh, but I love to scoff
I revel in being evil


I deserve to have my head lopped off
I need to face the consequences of my actions


Hidden and covered in moss
My body should be hidden away and forgotten


Until this memory's forgot
So that nobody remembers me


When I was eight
At the age of eight


I used to hate
I had a strong dislike of something


The color of my house
I did not like the appearance of my home


So as quiet as a mouse
Secretively and quietly


I burned it down
I set my own house on fire


To the ground
Until it was completely destroyed


When no one was around
When I was alone


Oh, but I love the sound
I enjoyed hearing the flames and chaos


I deserve to be quickly put down
I should meet my end quickly


Rotting six feet underground
My body should decay under the earth


When I was ten
At the age of ten


I used to pretend
I would act as if something was true


To drown in the sea
That I was trying to drown in the ocean


β€˜Til they'd come to rescue me
Just to see if anyone would come to my aid


Then proceed
Once they arrived


To laugh in their face
I would laugh at them


Such a disgrace
I would shame them for trying to help me


Oh, but I love the taste
I enjoyed getting away with such behavior


I deserve to have my brains displaced
I deserve a violent end


All over the fireplace
So that my blood is spilt and my body burned


Until this life has been erased
So nobody would remember me again


When I was twelve
At the age of twelve


I used to delve
I would make secret plans


Into evil schemes
Plans to cause harm to others


Just to elicit screams
I enjoyed the chaos and terror I caused


Boost my self-esteem
It made me feel proud of myself


Pushed my sister down a well
I caused the death of my sister


She just fell
I pushed her


Oh, but I love to dwell
I enjoyed it so much that I dwell on it


I deserve to roast deep down in hell
I deserve to suffer eternally for my actions


Where no one can hear me yell
I will be alone and forgotten in punishment


When I was fourteen
At the age of fourteen


Nothing much happened
Nothing much of interest occurred


Well, there was that one time
Actually, there was one thing that happened


When I was sixteen
At the age of sixteen


Life was frightening
I faced difficulties and challenges that I struggled with


My brother was quite dull
I did not like my brother


So with laughter in my skull
I planned something evil


Pushed him in a hole
I buried my brother alive


Then buried him alive
He was still alive when I buried him


He barely survived
He nearly died in the ground


Oh, but I love the cries
I enjoyed his screams and shouts of terror


I deserve to be battered and fried
I deserve to feel tremendous pain and suffering


In an electric chair that's set on high
I should face execution for my actions


Now that I'm eighteen
Now that I've reached age 18


I still hate things
I still harbor negative feelings towards things


From this padded cell I call my home
I live in a padded cell in a psychiatric institution


No friends, no phone
I have no friends or phone here


No life to call my own
I do not have a life that belongs to me


Here I will lie
I will live out the rest of my life here


Until the very day I die
Until the day that I pass away


Until my blood begins to dry
Until my body begins to shut down


And I return to the darkness from whence I came
And I will return to the nothingness that I came from

SiΓ©ntate ahora
DΓ©jame contarte un cuento
Donde la justicia no prevalece

Acerca de una vida malograda
Tan lleno de peleas
Donde dos errores no hacen un derecho

Asi que
Cuando nacΓ­
Lo hice con toda seguridad
El nombre de mi padre orgulloso
Entonces sus vidas bajaron el dren
Los condujo locos
Mi nacimiento fue una maldiciΓ³n
Yo mordΓ­ a la enfermera
Oh, pero yo amo lo peor
Merezco ser sumergido lentamente
Secado, luego, colocado, Hearse

Cuando yo era dos
Me arrojΓ© el pegamento estupendo
En el cabello de mis padres
Como El Siente Inconsciente
En su silla de brazo
Mucho a su disgusto
TenΓ­a que cortar todo
Oh, pero se sentΓ­a genial
Merezco cortar y filetear
Luego lanzado sobre Disarray
Hasta que las piezas se derriten

No soy un mal hombre
Incluso aunque hago cosas malas
Cosas muy malas
Esas cosas horribles
Pero no es bastante lo que parece
(No bastante lo que parece)
No bastante lo que parezco
Oh diablo
Es exactamente lo que parece

Cuando tenia cuatro
EsperarΓ­a por la puerta
Con un cuchillo en mi mano
Y un plan mΓ‘s desviado
SerΓ­a bastante grande
Como el correo cayΓ³ a travΓ©s de la ranura
El borde afilado que Γ©l consiguiΓ³
Oh, pero amo el pensamiento
Merezco estar atado en un nudo
Huesos rotos y coΓ‘gulos de sangre

Cuando tenΓ­a seis aΓ±os
Yo hice truco
El vecino de los vecinos
En el bosque que correrΓ­amos
Hora de divertirse
Ocultar N Seek tiene un costo
Γ‰l serΓ­a perdido para siempre
Oh, pero me encanta burlarse
Yo merezco tener mi cabeza arrancada
Ocultos Y Cubiertos En Musgo
Hasta que se olvide esta memoria

No soy un mal hombre
Incluso aunque hago cosas malas
Cosas muy malas
Esas cosas horribles
Pero no es bastante lo que parece
(No bastante lo que parece)
No bastante lo que parezco
Oh infierno
Es exactamente lo que parece

Cuando tenΓ­a ocho aΓ±os
SolΓ­a ​​odiar
El color de mi casa
Tan tan absolutamente como un ratΓ³n
Lo quemΓ©
Al suelo
Cuando nadie estaba alrededor
Oh, pero me encanta el sonido
Yo merezco ser rΓ‘pidamente puesto abajo
Rotting Six-Feet Underground

Cuando tenia diez aΓ±os
Yo solΓ­a fingir
Ahogarse en el mar
Hasta que vengan a rescatarme
Entonces proceda
ReΓ­rse en su cara
Tal desgracia
Oh, pero me encanta el sabor
Yo merezco tener mis cerebros desplazados
Todo sobre la chimenea
Hasta que esta vida haya sido borrada

No soy un mal hombre
Incluso aunque hago cosas malas
Cosas muy malas
Esas cosas horribles
Pero no es bastante lo que parece
(No bastante lo que parece)
No bastante lo que parezco
Oh infierno
Es exactamente lo que parece

Cuando yo tenΓ­a doce aΓ±os
UsΓ© para ahogar
En esquemas malvados
Solo para provocar gritos
Aumentar mi autoestima
EmpujΓ³ a mi hermana abajo un pozo
Ella solo se cayΓ³
Oh, pero me encanta morir
Merezco asar en el fondo del infierno
Donde nadie puede oΓ­rme gritar

Cuando tenΓ­a catorce aΓ±os
No pasΓ³ mucho

Bien
Hubo una vez

No soy un mal hombre
Incluso aunque hago cosas malas
Cosas muy malas
Esas cosas horribles
Pero no es bastante lo que parece
(No bastante lo que parece)
No bastante lo que parezco
Oh infierno
Es exactamente lo que parece

Cuando tenΓ­a diecisΓ©is
La vida era aterradora
Mi hermano fue bastante aburrido
AsΓ­ que con la risa en mi crΓ‘neo
Lo empujΓ³ en un agujero
Entonces enterrado Γ©l vivo
El apenas sobrevivio
Oh, pero me encantan los gritos
Yo merezco ser golpeado y frito
En una silla elΓ©ctrica que estΓ‘ en lo alto

Ahora que tengo dieciocho
TodavΓ­a odio las cosas
De esta celda rellenada llamo mi hogar
No hay amigos, no hay telΓ©fono
No hay vida para llamar a mi propio

AquΓ­ voy a mentir
Hasta el mismo dΓ­a que muero
Hasta que mi sangre empiece a secarse
Y regreso a la oscuridad de donde vine

Asi que
No soy un mal hombre
Incluso aunque hago cosas malas
Cosas muy malas
Esas cosas horribles
Pero no es bastante lo que parece

No bastante lo que parezco
Oh infierno
Soy exactamente lo que parezco

I love the Creature Feature's theme. Kinda spooky, bit gory, and that halloween feeling. I don't know how to explain but I can tell it's awesome

I remember when I first discovered these guys back when this album was first released. My gawd. It was like finding a long lost rich Uncle who loved to give money away. And I still have not got sick of listening to this album. CF is an amazing and highly underrated band. PERFECT Halloween music.
