Good Mourning/Black Friday

Good Mourning/Black Friday
"Good Mourning/Black Friday" is a two-piece song, which begins with an instrumental part called "Good Mourning".Lyrically, Mustaine has described "Black Friday" as being about "a homicidal madman who goes on a killing spree".With an excessive use of gory language and violent imagery, the song chronicles the acts of a serial killer.It was inspired by Dijon Carruthers, who was briefly the band's drummer prior to the hiring of Gar Samuelson. According to Mustaine, Carruthers was hanging out with people who were practicing occultism, and they inspired him to write songs based on spiritual themes.

Lyrics
Hey, I don't feel so good Something's not right

Something's coming over me

What the fuck is this?

Whoa!

Killer, intruder, homicidal man

If you see me coming run as fast as you can

Blood-thirsty demon who's stalking the street

I hack up my victims like pieces of meat

Blood-thirsty demon, sinister fiend

Bludgeonous slaughter's my evil deed

My hammer's a cold piece of blood-lethal steel

I grin while you writhe with the pain that I deal

Swinging the hammer, I hack through their heads

Deviant defilers, you're next to be dead

I unleash my hammer with sadistic intent

Pounding, surrounding, slamming through your head

Yeah!

Bodies convulse in agony, and pain

I mangle their face till no features remain

A blade for the butchering, I cut them to shreds

First take out the organs, then cut off the head

The remains of flesh now sop under my feet

One more bloody massacre, the murder's complete

I seek to dismember, a sadist fiend

Bloodbath's my way of getting clean

I lurk in the alley wait for the kill

I have no remorse for the blood that I spill

A merciless butcher who lives underground

I'm out to destroy and I will cut you down

I see you and I'm waiting for Black Friday

Turn me loose!

Killer, intruder, homicidal man

If you see me coming run as fast as you can

A blood-thirsty demon who's stalking the street

I hack up my victims like pieces of meat

Blood-thirsty demon, sinister fiend

Bludgeonous slaughter's my evil deed A merciless butcher who lives underground

I'm out to destroy you and I will cut you down

It's Black Friday, paint the devil on the wall
