[Verse 1]
Yesterday as I finished the last of the seven graves
I went to call McKenzie
I woke him up in the middle of the night
You should have heard me, surprise
Oh, revenge is sweet

[Verse 2]
Up and awake, McKenzie knew that I was still alive
And I have to tell you
He is the mayor of this God forsaken town
He's Lucy's father, the man that brought me down

[Pre-Chorus]
He is such a sick little man
He's so much sicker than me, and I am

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Meet me at midnight by the cemetery gates (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Meet me at midnight or your Lucy will be dead (Oh, oh, oh, oh)

[Post-Chorus]
Revenge is sweet
Revenge is sweet
I know that you agree
[Guitar Solo: Andy LaRocque]

[Bridge]
Call me sick in the head but I would never lie to you, I worked for the man
Mayor McKenzie is an old perverted swine
I caught him one night, molesting his own little child
Who do you think they all believed?

[Guitar Solo: Andy LaRocque]

[Pre-Chorus]
He is such a sick little man
He's so much sicker than me, and I am

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Meet me at midnight by the cemetery gates (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Meet me at midnight or your Lucy will be dead (Oh, oh, oh, oh)

[Verse 3]
McKenzie did you hear me? No Lucy, she is fine
She's sleeping in her coffin, can't wait to meet your face again

[Guitar Solo: Herb Simonsen]
[Pre-Chorus]
He is such a sick little man
He's so much sicker than me, and I am

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Meet me at midnight by the cemetery gates (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Meet me at midnight or your Lucy will be dead (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
