I generally don't care about lyrics but I got curious about Death's "Living Monstrosity" and I think it's actually got pretty clever lyrics. It's not gory but it still uses the aggression, malevolence, and grotesque imagery of death metal to parody the attitudes of many toward people with drug addiction. Death ****ing rule.

Quote:
The guilty one, innocent she now cries
A life of hell, better off to die
Born without eyes, hands, and half a brain
Being born addicted to cocaine

Living monstrosity
A freak for life they'll always be
Never knowing love or hate
Only pain the drug creates

Some say she's naive, she's a stupid bitch
Some say to forgive, guilty she should die
