I Tamper with the Evidence at the Murder Site of Odin
Dethklok [Metalocalypse] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
At the gates of gods
I tamper with the evidence
At Odin's murder site
I can swim through time
I can't be killed
You will hunt through life
The physics of this world
Can't stop my crime
Draw your sword
I'll meet you at the battle rock
Space will see me through
I can't be killed
I have no way to die
Spheres within this range
Will be my path my energy ignites
Parasite
Ultra-violent porthole
Fasten straps
Helmet frigid wormhole
DETH in you
Déjà vu
Mammoth view
Time will twist your soul
You spin
Your blood goes thin
You marrow burns
Your veins begin to burst
The speed it hurts and hurts
And strains your brain
As you spin forth through time
You meet yourself for one brief moment
In an eclipse and watch you DIE
Your guts explode as you erode
You broke the code the riddles solved
You made the trip
You have evolved
You're the eclipse
You are a God

The lyrics to Dethklok's song I Tamper With the Evidence at the Murder Site of Odin describe the singer, likely a god or other powerful being, tampering with evidence at the site of the murder of Odin, the god of wisdom, death, magic, and poetry in Norse mythology. The singer boasts about their abilities, claiming that they can swim through time and cannot be killed, using space itself to evade prosecution. They challenge their hunters, inviting them to meet in battle, confident in their own immortality. The lyrics also describe the physical toll of time travel, warning of the strain it puts on the body.
The song can be interpreted as an exploration of power, and the lengths individuals will go to protect their power. The singer asserts their sovereignty, evading justice by manipulating time itself. The lyrics convey a sense of grandiosity and triumph, culminating in the singer's transformation into a god.

What’s interesting is that up until now this music video was considered to be lost media since there was only screenshots proving that this was used for the concerts. Hope we’re finally getting more official content soon
@powerchordgamer
Whats crazy is I remember seeing like cam footage of a concert and this dude kept moving the camera around to random ass places when this video played and I commented like "dude, you should have taped the music video! this one is unreleased!" and they replied with "its on the Dethalbum II bonus disc" like, bro, no it aint. I have it... it aint there.
Now like 13 years later I finally get to see this video.
@c6030315
Any others that were only shown in concert? I know Ghostqueen was as well
@SiRenfield
@@c6030315 And Andromeda although unfortunately as great as that it is, it might be too hot for YouTube even coming from a corporate account like this one.
Also according to some people this was on the season 2 DVD in some regions I think. I’ve been trying to find my source on the “concert exclusive” part for a while now, but ironically I’m having a hard time finding it
@chrisw1727
Lost media? I seriously never had a problem looking up this song, and I was from the back in when adult swim thought it was a good idea to bring back saved by the bell days.
@powerchordgamer
@@chrisw1727 the song itself no, but the music video was never released before, it was only shown during tours
@the_relaxing_tony2818

I love how Dethklok's videos are actually what you would expect from any other metal band.
