The hunter let his horns call down the hounds

"The hounds, they're so close now
And if that I could I'd escape
But I can't
So god, voodoo, science, etcetera
Cut me some slack

Fuck the hunters
And fuck all the chasers
I want magic powers
And death-dealing lasers"

No sooner were those words said
The air around his head
Did crackle with energy
His eyes became a sinister green
And evil filled his heart

The next day in the woods
They found the hunter and his hounds
Stacked in each other
Like those nesting-dolls from Russia
And of The Ragged Fox
Now there was now sign

He slipped away
To live another day
Time after time
