Dracula
Rob Zombie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dead I am, the one exterminating son
Slipping through the trees, stranglin' the breeze
Dead I am, the sky watchin' angels cry
While they slowly turn, conquering the worm

Dig through the ditches and burn through the witches
And slam in the back of my Dragula
Dig through the ditches and burn through the witches
And slam in the back of my Dragula

Dead I am the pool, draining from the fool
Weak and want you need, nowhere as you bleed
Dead I am the rat, feast upon the cat
Tender is the fur, dying as you purr

Dig through the ditches and burn through the witches
And slam in the back of my Dragula
Dig through the ditches and burn through the witches
And slam in the back of my Dragula

Do it baby, do it baby
Do it baby, do it baby
Then burn like an animal

Dead I am the dog, hound of hell you cry
Devil on your back, I can never die
I can never die, I can never die, I can never die

I can never die, I can never die, I can never die
I can never die, I can never die, I can never die
I can never die, I can never die

Do it baby, do it baby
Do it baby, do it baby
Then burn like an animal

Dig through the ditches and burn through the witches
And slam in the back of my Dragula
Dig through the ditches and burn through the witches
And slam in the back of my Dragula

Dig through the ditches and burn through the witches
And slam in the back of my Dragula




Dig through the ditches and burn through the witches
And slam in the back of my Dragula

I am unstoppable, like a force of nature, destroying everything in my path


Slipping through the trees, stranglin' the breeze
My presence is suffocating and oppressive, like I am choking the air


Dead I am, the sky watchin' angels cry
My actions are so evil that they make even the heavens weep with sadness and despair


While they slowly turn, conquering the worm
Even the powerful and divine beings are powerless against me, as I continue to defeat all those who oppose me


Dig through the ditches and burn through the witches
I will do whatever it takes to achieve my goals, even if it means committing heinous acts


And slam in the back of my Dragula
I will use any means necessary to reach my destination


Dead I am the pool, draining from the fool
I am taking advantage of those who are weak and foolish, and will continue to drain them until there is nothing left

Tender is the fur, dying as you purr
Even those who are seemingly innocent and harmless are not safe from my wrath, and will suffer and die at my hands


Do it baby, do it baby
Encouraging and inciting others to participate in my wicked actions


Then burn like an animal
Embracing a wild and chaotic nature, and committing atrocities with reckless abandon


Dead I am the dog, hound of hell you cry
I am a demon, sent from the depths of hell to terrorize the living


Devil on your back, I can never die
I am a constant presence, haunting and tormenting my enemies, no matter how hard they try to rid themselves of me


I can never die, I can never die, I can never die
I am an immortal being, destined to wreak havoc on the world for eternity
