Apocalypse 1992
[Spoken Intro: Topazulon McGonagall VII, Herald of Dundee]
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 citadel 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 prophecy of Anstruther countless centuries 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 eighteenth hell dimension would be unleashed unto the galaxy
The countdown to universal annihilation had begun
[Verse 1: Angus McFife XIII, Crown Prince of Dundee]
Warriors of planet Earth
Hear my raging cry
For mighty Dundee
The demons will die
[Spoken Interlude: Tharon-Zul, Chaos Wizard]
Yes, battle cruisers, to space we'll go
Discover new worlds and conquer galaxies
[Verse 2: Ser Proletius, Grand Master of the Spaceknights of Crail]
Across the skies of Mars
The demon war begins
Trust in your sword
This battle we'll win
The SpaceKnights 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 battleaxe into the fight he rides
[Spoken Interlude: Zargothrax, Dark Sorcerer of Auchtermuchty]
Pathetic dwarves
You are no match for my demon hordes
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
[Non-Lyrical Vocals]
[Verse 4: Zargothrax, Dark Sorcerer of Auchtermuchty]
My ancestral demon army
Will ride a 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
[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
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
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge: Ralathor, Mysterious Hermit of Cowdenbeath]
From the caves beneath Dundee
Ancient hermit arrives
A messenger to the war in the stars
Kor-Virliath is nigh
[Verse 5: Excerpt from the Dundaxian Codex & Hootsman, The Barbarian Warrior of Unst]
Deep inside the Hootsman there lies a secret heart
Barbarian is a cyborg powered by a neutron star
For centuries immortal he will quest in time and space
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
[Refrain: Topazulon McGonagall VII, Herald of Dundee]
Faster than a laser bullet
Hootsman flies to Fife
He detonates his nuclear heart
Destroys all human life
[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 Outro: Topazulon McGonagall VII, Herald of Dundee & Angus McFife, Warrior of Time]
With a thunderous implosion the Earth was vaporized
Tearing a dimensional rift in the heavens
Using his last shards of power
Zargothrax plunged through the space portal
Vanishing into another reality
And so Angus McFife XIII followed him into the wormhole
For the eternal glory of Dundee
Sanctus
