Metallica
The Thing That Should Not Be (Live / Seattle ’89)

[Spoken: Jason Newsted]
We're gonna play some of the Master of Puppets album
That we, uh, we just started doing a little bit ago
And, uh, it's above the heaviest number known to mankind
It's a big old fat motherfucker called "The Thing That Should Not Be"

[Verse 1: James Hetfield]
Messenger of fear in sight
Dark deception kills the light
Hybrid children watch the sea
Pray for Father, roaming free

[Chorus: James Hetfield]
Fearless wretch, insanity
He watches, lurking beneath the sea
Great Old One, forbiddеn site
He searchеs, hunter of the shadows is rising
Immortal
In madness, you dwell

[Verse 2: James Hetfield]
Crawling chaos, underground
Cult has summoned twisted sound
Out from ruins once possessed
Fallen city, living death
[Chorus: James Hetfield]
Fearless wretch, insanity
He watches, lurking beneath the sea
Timeless sleep has been upset
He awakens, hunter of the shadows is rising
Immortal
In madness, you dwell
Yeah

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge: James Hetfield]
In madness, you dwell
Oh, yeah
Yeah-yeah
Yeah-hey

[Verse 3: James Hetfield]
Not dead, which eternal lie
Stranger aeons death may die
Drain you of your sanity
Face the thing that should not be

[Chorus: James Hetfield]
Fearless wretch, insanity
He watches, lurking beneath the sea
Great Old One, forbidden site
He awakens, hunter of the shadows is rising
Immortal
In madness, we dwell
Yeah-eah
[Outro: James Hetfield]
Face the thing that should not be

[Spoken: James Hetfield]
Oh, is that too fucking heavy or what?
Hey, man, I thought we had some nutty friends here tonight
What the fuck happened?
Let's wake up, man, come on
