There's a Hole in the Pentagon

...If you visit Washington D.C., you will find that our Armed Forces have their global headquarters in a most unusual building. It is made up of five rings, each of which has five sides. Doesn't that make you suspicious? And just think for a moment about what is right in the middle...

There's a hole in the Pentagon.
Yes, a hole in the Pentagon.
There's a hole (one, at least) in the Pentagon in Washington.

There's a beast in the hole in the Pentagon.
Yes, a beast in the hole in the Pentagon.
There's a beast they control in the hole (one, at least) in the Pentagon in Washington...
...Near Washington

There's a bowl for the beast in the hole in the Pentagon.
Yes, a bowl for the beast in the hole in the Pentagon.
There's a bowl somewhat East of the beast they control in the hole (one, at least) in the Pentagon in Arlington.

There's a feast in the bowl of the beast in the hole in the Pentagon.
Yes, a feast in the bowl of the beast in the hole in the Pentagon.
There's a feast, eaten whole, in the bowl somewhat East of the beast they control in the hole (one, at least) in the Pentagon in Arlington.
...The critter's got to eat...

Its a soul that's the feast in the bowl of the beast in the hole in the Pentagon.
Yes, a soul that's the feast in the bowl of the beast in the hole in the Pentagon.
Its a soul, just deceased, that's the feast, eaten whole, in the bowl somewhat East of the beast they control in the hole (one, at least) in the Pentagon in Arlington.

There's a priest for the soul that's the feast in the bowl of the beast in the hole in the Pentagon.
Yes, a priest for the soul that's the feast in the bowl of the beast in the hole in the Pentagon.
There's a priest whose sole goal is the soul, just deceased, that's the feast, eaten whole, in the bowl somewhat East of the beast they control in the hole (one, at least) in the Pentagon in Arlington.

There's a scroll for the priest of the soul that's the feast in the bowl of the beast in the hole in the Pentagon.
Yes, a scroll for the priest of the soul that's the feast in the bowl of the beast in the hole in the Pentagon.
There's a scroll, somewhat creased, for the priest whose sole goal is the soul, just deceased, that's the feast, eaten whole, in the bowl somewhat East of the beast they control in the hole (one, at least) in the Pentagon in Arlington.
... A scroll ... ancient writings ... in-can-ta-tions ... POWER ... cool ...

What's released by the scroll of the priest of the soul that's the feast in the bowl of the beast in the hole in the Pentagon?
What's released by the scroll of the priest of the soul that's the feast in the bowl of the beast in the hole in the Pentagon?
What's released won't be tol' by the priest, nor the soul, nor the beast, nor the Pentagon
...So, I guess that means that my song is done.
