to the tune of LOVE SHACK in song parodies

if you see a light-up sign by the cinema door that says
“fifteen films based on
Lovecraft”
Lovecraft, H.P.
you’re headin’ down Miskatonic Highway
what’s the source, literarily?
headed for the town library
you got you a card ready to check out some tales
and you’re headin’ on down to read Lovecraft
you’re caught up on late fees, you owed about twenny
I sure hope you know that it won’t be funny

yeah, Lovecraft wrote some interesting stuff but he was really racist
Lovecraft, H.P.
Lovecraft, H.P., Lovecraft (x4)

don’t think (woo) you’re just getting Cthul
because hate ruled over Lovecraft
so bigoted he would make David Duke blush
and his characters were piggish gibberish spigots
gibbering with madness
gibbering with horror
gibbering at the nameless
gibbering with horror

yeah, Lovecraft wrote some interesting stuff but he was really racist
Lovecraft, H.P.
Lovecraft, a really hateful cat (x2)

Yoggin’ and Sothothin’
Dagon and Shoggothin’
Nodens Azathothin’
and we’re Shub-Niggurathin’
yeah he made up weird names
yeah he made up real weird names
he called them nameless then gave them weird names
in Arkham town town town town town town
creatively inventive, culturally insensitive!
folks pickin’ up his stuff only to be let down
creatively inventive, culturally insensitive!
problematic Lovecraft
problematic Lovecraft

I guess that it’s trendy to be reading his books so why not take a look?
you’re caught up on late fees, you owed about twenny
I sure hope you know that it won’t be funny

yeah, Lovecraft wrote some interesting stuff but he was really racist
Lovecraft, H.P.
Lovecraft, a really hateful cat (x 4)

dark dank, the ichor, baby
everything is eldritch, baby
dark dank, the ichor, baby
all is madness
dark dank, the ichor, baby
everything is eldritch, baby
dark dank, the ichor, baby
all is madness
dark dank, the ichor, baby
dark dank, the ichor, baby
dark dank
dark dank
dark dank
dark dank
its what?
eldritch… madness

Lovecraft, a really hateful cat (x 3)
Yoggin’ and Sothothin’
Dagon and Shoggothin’
H.P. Lovecraft
