Lower!!!

"Lower!!!" is a song from the Every Ape and His Brother collection Morbid! The Horrendous Hobo!!!. It is a parody of Creed's song "Higher".

Overview
This song was written because of the ease of switching switching the theme, and also because of the ability to tweak a demon-like twist on Scott Stapp's voice.

Story in the song
Instead of being about the power of lucid dreaming, this parody focuses on a man in medieval times, Erliphus, urging his comrades not to be deceived into joining a cult of blue-cloaked men. He graphically describes victims of the deception as they are dragged to Hell, as well as what the damned see on a regular basis.

Verse One
While scheming; / They spread into all the world; / To be a big, bane! /

Hurts my eyes! / The cloaked men do not sleep! / It brings me great / discomfort / and disgrace! /

Cause they will hunger; / to steal away your soul!!! / End the life you live / while you're still...here... /

Chorus
So don't go there... / Don't make that mistake! / Come on, / don't join them... / You'll never escape!!! /

They will drag / you / lower!!! / To a place where dead souls scream!!! /

They will drag / you / lower!!! / To a place / of / scary dreams!!!/

Verse Two
Although they, / say they stand for good change; / It help if you / appreciate, / your current way's dreams! /

And my friends, / don't sacrifice what you have; / And fall for their, / ultra-sini- / -ster / scheme! /

The major, / difference is, / they'll trick and then, / leave you in; / Pain without debate! /

[Repeat Chorus]

[Mini-Bridge]

So don't go there... / Don't go there... / Come on, / don't go there... / There is no debate!!! /

[Instrumental break]

Bridge
Much lower you'll feel like you're; / Trapped in the most; / Painful of chores! /

Still lower your so inclined; / To be lava-soaked; / Or in the grind!!! /

Much lower you'll feel like you're; / Trapped in the most; / Painful of chores!!! /

[Repeat Chorus]

Finale Chorus
They will drag you lower!!! / To the land where dead souls scream!!! /

They will drag you lower STILL!! / To the worst of evil's schemes!!! /
