I am the black belt zombie

entry picture

i am a black belt 

i leave blood wherever i go

its not for the right reasons

its for reasons you don't know

i leave behind a trail of destruction and gore

guts and entrails and broken bones

people treat me with disdain

so i eat up their brains

and leave their bodies behind me

or in their own homes

 

stick and stones never hurt me

only removing my head

this is the glory i am blessed with

the glory of being half dead

but you cant take me down

cause i dont feel pain

i am a zombie black belt so run when you see me

if you dont run i will overcome

you with a flying sidekick to your head

break your arm off

and use it to beat off your friends

and that will be the end of the story for you

cause you never get up

and i will drink your liquid brains from a cup

◄ the telephone box and second sight

Choosing a character in beat em up games ►
