[Intro] (Heavy distorted guitar riff, pounding drums) [Verse 1] The snow came down like frozen lead On rooftops where the children slept But down below, in shadows deep Old Nickolas swore he'd never sleep He traded red for weathered grey The reindeer team had gone astray The sack was heavy, filled with dread And tales of fish swam in his head [Chorus] Saint Nick! Lost in the storm! Saint Nick! Against the norm! No presents wrapped, no festive cheer Just scales and fins, and icy fear! He's casting lines in d**d of night Bathed in the pale December light! Saint Nick! The Midnight Catch is on! [Verse 2] The North Pole's glow, a distant dream Reflected in the frozen stream He baited hooks with candy canes And whispered forgotten saints' names The jingle bells, a grim tattoo As winds of chaos howled and blew The fish they bit with teeth like knives Reflecting dark, distorted lives [Chorus] Saint Nick! Lost in the storm! Saint Nick! Against the norm! No presents wrapped, no festive cheer Just scales and fins, and icy fear! He's casting lines in d**d of night Bathed in the pale December light! Saint Nick! The Midnight Catch is on! [Bridge] The weight of expectation breaks! The silent night, the soul it takes! He reels them in, a silver flash A twisted, unexpected cache! This ain't the gift the carols sing! This is the bite that winter brings! [Guitar Solo] (Blistering guitar solo over driving rhythm section, heavy bass, crashing cymbals) [Chorus] Saint Nick! Lost in the storm! Saint Nick! Against the norm! No presents wrapped, no festive cheer! Just scales and fins, and icy fear! He's casting lines in d**d of night! Bathed in the pale December light! Saint Nick! The Midnight Catch is on! [Outro] (Slow, heavy, descending riff, drums pounding relentlessly, fades out with feedback and a final cymbal c***h)
