Eloko Songtext
von Skinflint

Restless spirits
Seeds of the wicked
Rising from their graves

Hidden they wait
Where there should be hair
Follicles sprout grass

Using their snouts
Smelling thereabouts
Of their prey

Carrying small bells
On their necks
That chimes victims to sleep

Loosing your coordinates
Drowning in their spell
Prey to the eloko

Unhinging their jaws
The size of a cave
Swallowing humans whole


The dwarf like spirits
Smelling new faces
Insatiable

Doors your locking
Don′t open at night
The bell lies

They take your mind
You'll lose your will
Unbreakable faith

They will demand
You offer them
Your soul and flesh

Cutting your arms for them
Feeding them your legs
Subordinate to their spells

Unhinging their jaws
The size of a cave
Swallowing humans whole

At night you hear the screams
From the heart of the forest
Crushing bones with their jaws
Your spirit feels broken


Dreading the knock on your door
Safer in the prison of your walls
You hold your family tight
Praying for the night to pass

The was once a young boy
His mother sent him to run
Some errands at the village

While he was gone
She heard someone knocking at her door
A saw a dwarf like creature

She tried to run
But the eloko rang the bell
She fell under the spell the vile spirit

He told her he was hungry
Demanding she give herself
To him right away

The boy was returning with milk and bread
As he entered the house
He saw the bones of his mother

The family were devastated
Untill one day outside
The young boy noticed a ray of light

He followed it and found a magical spear
A voice rang in his head
From the ancestors

Brave one, you are the chosen one
Take the magical spear
Cleanse these lands of the eloko

Wearing war paint
He rode on horseback
Immune to their magic
Protection from the ancestors
He cut the eloko down
One by one
He dismembered the carcass
Buried them seperate
So they would not return
To the lands of his fathers
