Lemon Demon - 'Eighth Wonder'

Special thanks to Ryan Murphy!

Lyrics:
Extra clever earthbound spirit
Ghost in the form of a mongoose
And I have hands and I have feet
I'll never die, I am a freak
Hello, I'm here, I'm living in the wall
I know, I might be small but I am a freak
Thou wilt never know what I am
I am the fifth dimension and I will split the atom
And if you see me, you're paralyzed
Pillar of salt, you're mummified
Hello, I'm here, I'm living in the wall
I know, I might be small but I am the eighth wonder
And I was born 1852
And I was born in India
And I shall haunt like the Buggane
With such weird noise and clanking chains
Hello, I'm here, I'm living in the wall
I know, I might be small but I am a freak
I say "vanished" to underground
Jim, let me go, I watch like hell
And I have hands, and I have feet
I'll never die, I am a freak
Hello, I'm here, I'm living in the wall
I know, I might be small, but I am the eighth wonder
Eighth wonder of the world
You'll never get to see
What in the name of god can I be?

[hadiza]

This is the most intense game of "what am i" I've ever played

Edit: its been 7 years guys i know its gef the mongoose

[noah]

"I have feet" ugh no need to flex

[ltaken]

Ladies if yo man

-Is here
-Is living in the wall
-Might be small
-Is the fifth dimension
-Will split the atom
-Was born in 1852 india
-Shall haunt like the buggane
-Says "vanished"
-Watches like hell
-Has hands
-Has feet
-Will never die

They a freak

[morganlawson]

This song is about me padding out my resume to apply for a job that I'm completely unqualified for

[suggiethames]

I think the song does a wonderful job of conveying the idea of a small scurrying supernatural creature that is mischievous rather than evil

[Crow-Raven_Android]

He only wrote the song to show off his sick taxidermy

[CameronWasmund]

How creepy would if all those signs just got left there in the woods and some guy came across these weird messages about some small guy living in a wall.

[rosevoid]

Lemon Demon is absolutely bizarre.... you have songs that are filled with nostalgia and are very obviously from 10 years ago and then there's songs like this which I thought for a good while was made in 2016 and now I learn it's almost 10 years old. Jesus.

[bigham]

imagine one of the pieces of paper flies away then somebody is walking in the forest and finds a piece of paper that says "I'LL NEVER DIE" in red

[YourKingPyro]

The “I’ll never die” line is sad considering someone claimed to have caught and shot Gef

[centipede]

I only discovered Lemon Demon a few months ago and it was so weird to learn that his songs are ten years old, they sound so modern

[Larry]

Gef the Mongoose is a fascinating story, absolutely bizarre no one has ever made a movie about it. Make for a great kid's film too!

[TyphusAndronicus]

I feel like Lemon Demon is what would happen if a benevolent Lovecraftian entity was allowed to write rock songs.

[doobiesmoke]

The thing I love about Gef is that he is not malicious, just mischievous. He seemed to like the family whose house he was haunting. Unlike Jodie from the Amityville Horror House

[MaxEverywhereSystem]

“earth bound spirit”
damn i didn’t know gef was a gamer

[whatthewhatthe]

Gef isn’t a freak, he’s just built different

[clutterbug]

Imagine if they left the cards in the woods by mistake and someone just found "hello" and "im here" in the middle of a forest

[charonsferryold]

In a short summary:


*my name gef*

[sironiichan]

this song was my gateway into learning about gef the talking mongoose and he is by far my favorite legend 

[chancebrewer]

Honestly I don't think Gef was bad. Just a small little creature with a gift from god! He lives on as the TRUE 8th wonder of the world. May he be happy where ever he is!
