gloryhammer - apocalypse 1992 [lyric booklet] lyrics

[instrumental intro]

[spoken intro: topazulon mcgonagall vii]
and lo, led by the valiant hero angus mcfife xiii
the forces of justice assembled their armies in the skies above mars
in preparation for the epic battle against the demon horde
but on planet earth, a far more sinister machination was afoot
in the dwarven caverns beneath the mighty city of dundee
the evil wizard zargothrax began to recite the dread incantation
which would unlock the chaos portal to the galactic nexus
as foretold in the dark prophеcy of anstruther countless centuriеs ago
as he placed the goblin king’s crystal key into the altar before him
ancient runes began to glow on the surface of the portal
soon the gateway would open, and the elder god kor+virliath of the 18th h+ll dimension would be unleashed unto the galaxy
the countdown to universal annihilation had begun!

[verse 1: angus mcfife xiii]
warriors of planet earth
hear my raging cry
for mighty dundee
the demons will die

[spoken interlude: tharon+zul]
yes battlecruisers
to sp+ce we will go
discover new worlds
and conquer galaxies
[verse 2: ser proletius]
across the skies of mars the demon war begins
trust in your sword, this battle we’ll win
the sp+ce knights of crail are first to the fight
clashing with lasers and power of might

[chorus: the heroes of dundee]
fly high through apocalypse skies
fight for the world we must save
like tears of a unicorn lost in the rain
chaos will triumph this day
apocalypse! 1992

[verse 3: the astral dwarves of aberdeen]
at the speed of light
the dwarven king arrives
with crystal laser battle axe
into the fray he rides

[spoken interlude: zargothrax]
pathetic dwarves
you are no match for my demon horde
let battle commence!

[refrain: the astral dwarves of aberdeen]
it’s the rage, the cosmic rage
the cosmic rage of astral dwarves from aberdeen
from their mines they will arise and fight
the rage of the dwarves is tonight
it’s the rage, the cosmic rage
the cosmic rage of astral dwarves from aberdeen
from their mines they will arise and fight
the rage of the dwarves is tonight
[interlude: lamentations of the armies of light]
de mortuis crepitus
aberdonensis de furor infernus irae
then they died

[verse 4: zargothrax]
mwah ha ha!
my ancestral demon army will ride the cosmic sphere
and liberate the multiverse from slavery and fear
with the power of the crystal from an ancient galaxy
the force of evil will prevail, it is my destiny!

[unspoken narration: topazulon mcgonagall vii]
the demon war raged on in the skies of mars
as wave after wave of undead foe charged into the dwindling ranks of the forces of justice
the dwarven king of aberdeen was dead
his armies slaughtered by a robotic sp+ce goblin
the questlords of inverness had fallen too
obliterated by an infinity bomb which erased their existence from all of history
the knights of crail were once again defeated by the chaos wizard tharon+zul
while making a n0ble defense of the moon phobos
now only angus mcfife xiii and the hootsman survived
preparing to make a final stand against the massed ranks of evil
meanwhile on planet earth, in the caverns beneath dundee
a mysterious figure watched from the shadows
as the evil sorcerer zargothrax prepared to summon an evil being of unimaginable terror into the galaxy…
[bridge: ralathor]
from the caves beneath dundee
ancient hermit arise!
a messenger to the war in the stars
kor+virliath is nigh!

[unspoken narration: topazulon mcgonagall vii]
the mysterious figure was none other than ralathor, the hermit of cowdenbeath!
he realised that if zargothrax would succeed in opening the chaos portal
kor+virliath would devour not just all of planet earth, but the entire galaxy
the demon war of mars had just been a diversion!
with great haste, the mysterious hermit took flight
and set off into the midst of the raging battle in sp+ce
to warn angus mcfife xiii and the hootsman of what was about to unfold

[unspoken skit:]
hootsman: hoots! ralathor arrives, to tell a dread tale… the fate of the galaxy hangs in the balance. h+ll gods of the galactic nexus seek ot annihilate the sp+ce empire of fife!
ralathor: the summoning ritual is protected by a mysterious extra+galactic crystal key, which seems to be goblonic in origin. only the blast of a neutronic transnova bomb has the power to penetrate the sorveruos forcefields
angus mcfife xiii: by all the gods of dundee! such a powerful explosion would have dread consequences… the planet will be destroyed, and the fabric of sp+ce+time may even collapse!
hootsman: and yet it must be done. fear not, angus. i will undertake the grim task

[verse 5: excerpt from the dundaxian codex & hootsman]
deep inside the hootsman, there lies a secret heart
the barbarian is a cyborg powered by a neutron star
for millenia this immortal hero quested time and sp+ce
but now he must make sacrifice to save the human race
the only way to save the galaxy
is to destroy planet earth and all dundee

[unspoken interlude: kor+virliath]
it is time… it is time!
my ascendancy is nigh!
soon the incantation will be complete and i will devour this insignificant galaxy!

[refrain: topazulon mcgonagall vii]
faster than a laser bullet
hoostman flies to fife
he detonates his nuclear heart
destroys all human life

[unspoken interlude: kor+virliath]
nyaaaahhhhhhh!!

[chorus: heroes of dundee]
fly high through apocalypse skies
fight for the world we must save
like tears of a unicorn lost in the rain
chaos will triumph this day
fly high through apocalypse skies
fight for the world we must save
like tears of a unicorn lost in the rain
chaos will triumph this day
apocalypse

[spoken & unspoken outro: topazulon mcgonagall vii]
with a thunderous explosion of ultragravitational terrorflux
the barbarian warrior of unst vaporised the earth with the neutronic transnova bomb detonation of his robotic powersource
the summoning ritual of kor+virliath and the crystal key of the goblin king had been destroyed
but at great cost
cosmic infinity crackled around the black sp+ce in the heavens
as suddenly the fabric of reality began to tear quantum lightning exploded from the nothingness
exposing a dimensional rift in the sky
yet the immortal sorcerer zargothrax still was not annihilated

[unspoken interlude: zargothrax]
no! you impudent mortal scum!
one thousand years of planning… ruined by a hootsman!
i swear i will have my revenge
in this sp+ce+time continuum or the next!

[spoken & unspoken outro: fragmented subvisual archive, recovered from the time+rift, angus mcfife, lamentations of the armies of light]
channeling his last shards of power
zargothrax plunged himself through the amorphous portal in sp+ce
vanishing from this universe into another reality
n0body could know when or where the wormhole might lead to…
yet angus mcfife xiii swore that at any cost, he must find and defeat zargothrax
no matter where he may be
and so with a final raging battle cry
he followed the dark sorcerer into the dimensional rift
for the eternal glory of dundee!
sanctus! dominus!
