Lyrics for House Of Wolves as interpreted by AbsolutionAgent_gMs

House Of Wolves Lyrics
Well
I know a thing about contrition
Because I got enough to spare
And I'll be grantin' your permission
'Cause you haven't got a prayer
Well I said hey hey, hallelujah
I wanna come on, sing the praise
Let the spirit come on through ya
We got innocence for days

Well I think I'm gonna burn in hell
Everybody burn the house right down

And say, ha, what I wanna say
Tell me I'm an angel
Take this to my grave
Tell me I'm a bad man
Kick me like a stray
Tell me I'm an angel
Take this to my grave

(Say it lover say it) x4

You play ring around the ambulance
Like you never gave a care
So get the choir boys around you
It's a compliment, I swear
And I said, ashes to ashes, we all fall down
I wanna hear you sing the praise
I said, ashes to ashes, we all fall down
We got innocence for days

Well I think I'm gonna burn in hell
Everybody burn the house right down

And say, ha, what I wanna say
Tell me I'm an angel
Take this to my grave
Tell me I'm a bad man
Kick me like a stray
Tell me I'm an angel
Take this to my grave

You better run like the devil
'Cause they're never gonna leave you alone
You better hide up in the alley
'Cause they're never gonna find you a home
And as the blood runs down the walls
You see me creepin' up these halls
I been a bad motherfucker
Tell your sister I'm another
Go! Go! Go!

And I should say, what I wanna say
Tell me I'm an angel
Take this to my grave
Tell me I'm a bad man
Kick me like a stray
Tell me I'm an angel
Take this to my grave

Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man
So get up
So get down

Yes I, yes I, yes I am

This song is about how after a hard days screaming and bleeding Gerard way came home put on his slippers and dressing gown and then went into the kitchen and put on the kettle with the intention of making a brew.

When all of a sudden he was attacked by a pack of wolves which tore him into several pieces and ripped up his face beyond recognition. Gerard way was dead and his retarded cross eyed brother Mickey way wrote this song "House of Wolves" about his Incest brothers fatal tea making accident.

i LOVE this song. I cannot wait for the album! I think that this song may be up there with my favourite MCR songs of all time!
It's obvious that Frank can up with a lot of this song... you can tell from the musical vibe.
xXx
Oh and do the 'I think i'm gonna burn in hell' parts remind anyone else of the misfits? I think it's great!

It's "Kick me like a stray"
and "Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man"

And those two unmarked lines are "I'm a bad motherfucker,
Tell yer (sic) sister I'm another"

yea prayingmantis is right. Kick me like a stray ties in to the whole "wolves" idea.

This song comes right after "I Don't Love You Anymore" which leaves the patient feeling very sad and lonely, then this song immediately comes in, which is the Black Parade dropping him right into hell. Gerard and Ray said they imagine it like a jazz club with all the fire and brimstone like in those Looney Tunes where there were wolves playing saxaphone....etc. Hence the name "House of Wolves".

I love how the song starts out all slow and the Black Parade voice is saying "I know a thing about contrition...hey hallelujah..." like all these thhings about atoning for sins, and I just imagine the patient standing there, still sniffing a little from crying, and going "huh?", then the ground opening below him and falling right smack into this night club in hell. Anyone seen The South Park Movie? It reminds me of the part where Kenny goes to hell.
So the patient is in hell, seeing all these creepy things and he's like "NO!!!! Ohmygod I'm going to hell! Please, please...someone tell me I'm an angel...tell me I'm going to heaven" then people are kicking him around and people are creeping on the walls, chasing him...all this crazy shit to scare him, make him see where he's headed to if he doesn't change.

i think this song sounds like the cure's 'the lovecats', but if robert smith had written it about wolves, instead of cats

it's pretty cool

"Tell me I’m a bad man
Kick me like a slave"
makes me think of racism in the 1950s
and "ashes to ashes" reminds me of the macbeth witches:P
loool
love this song

i get the idea that he (the patient) is talking to a priest before he dies. and the priest is trying to give him a blessing before he dies, but hes so in such a dark place that hes deliberately mocking the priest and telling him he knows hes going to hell.
