Theme
A playful satirical take on Satanism and occult practices wrapped in a catchy retro-rock package. The song explores the disappointment of those who pursued black magic expecting rewards. 'Kiss the goat' references the occult ritual of kissing the devil as a sign of allegiance, with 'Osculum obscenum' (obscene kiss) emphasizing forbidden rituals. Beneath the theatrical darkness, the song is ultimately about friendship and how two people who were once something together can drift apart.
Lyrics
Kiss the go-goat
Hey, baby
Kiss the goat
Oh-oh-oh
Kiss, kiss, kiss the go-goat
You've been playing
Around with magic that is black
But all the powerful magical mysteries
Never gave a single thing back
You've been daddied
By all the dudes that wanna dad
And all those dads never gave you
The things that you should've had
It ain't always what it seems
When you cling onto a dream
It ain't always there to please you (Please you)
But he's the guy you wanna do
And you know that it takes two
Luckily he wants to do you too
Satan
Lucifer
Osculum obscenum
Hey, baby!
Kiss the goat
Oh-oh-oh
Kiss, kiss, kiss the go-goat
Hey, baby!
Hey, hey, hey!
Kiss the goat
Oh-oh-oh
Kiss, kiss, kiss the go-goat
It ain't always what it seems
That glitter wasn't gold
As opposed to what they told you (Told you)
But he's the guy you wanna do
And you know that it takes two
Luckily he wants to do you too
Satan
Lucifer
Osculum obscenum
It ain't always what it seems
When you cling onto a dream
It ain't always there to please you (Please you)
But he's the guy you wanna do
And you know that it takes two
Luckily he wants to do you too
Satan
Lucifer
Osculum obscenum
