I'll end my transcription here since the remainder of the song is
Jonathan Davis crying and adlib guitar. If anyone wants me to transcribe
that part too, email me (jalbers@ucsd.edu). As for the rest of the song,
the riffs are easy and could be played on a guitar tuned ADGCea. Also, I
have received mail stating that Korn tunes to ADADGbe, not ADGCFad. That is
what Guitar School has determined how they play, and it is not necessarily
correct. In the Blind video it is apparent that at least Munky (Gtr1) plays
his 7strings tuned ADGCFAD (fingering position is the same in my transcription
of Blind). Either way is correct for transcriptions, but the video suggest
they play (all strings) a whole step down, not ADADGbe.
The lyrics are again transcribed by me with the help of another guy
(sorry-forgot your name/address, but thanks anyway) and are written the
exact order he says them in. The very last part during the crying is
transcribed by me and is what I hear.

Daddy-Korn
Mother, please forgive me-I just have to get out all my pain and suffering
Now that I'm undone remember that I'll always love you-I'm your son
Little Child, looking so pretty
Come out and play-I'll be your daddy
Innocent child, looking so sweet
A rape in my eyes and of your flesh I'll eat
You raped-I'm your daddy-it hurt as a child
Tied down-that's a good boy-and fucked your own child
I screamed-no one hears me-it hurt-not alive
My God-saw you watching-mommy why-your own child
Little Child, looking so pretty
Come out and play-I'll be your daddy
You raped-I'm your daddy-it hurt as a child
Tied down-that's a good boy-and fucked your own child
I screamed-no one hears me-it hurt-not alive
My God saw you watching-mommy why
It's alright
Raped-I'm your daddy-it hurt as a child
Tied down-that's a good boy-and fucked your own child
I'm raped-no one hears me-it hurt as a child
Tied down-no one hears me-it hurt your own child
I said-no one hears me-it hurt-as a child
Tied down-that's a good boy-and fucked your own child
I screamed-no one hears me-it hurt as a child
Tied down-no one hears me mommy why your own child
I didn't touch you there, mommy said she didn't care
I didn't touch you there, that's why mommy stopped and stared
Little Child, looking so sweet
A rape in my eyes and of your flesh I'll eat
You raped-I'm your daddy-it hurt as a child
Tied down-that's a good boy-and fucked your own child
I screamed-no one hears me-it hurt-not alive
My God-saw you watching-mommy why-your own child
You raped-I'm your daddy-it hurt-not alive
My God saw you watching-daddy why your own child
I screamed-no one hears me-it hurt-not alive
My God-saw you watching-mommy why-your own child
You raped-I'm your daddy-it hurt not alive
My God-saw you watching-mommy why-your own child
I screamed-no one hears me-it hurt-not alive
My God-saw you watching-mommy why
...I fuckin' hate you...you fuckin' motherfucker...
...I fuckin' hate you...fuck you...you son of a bitch...
...You fuckin' ruined my life...it wasn't dad...I'll see you motherfucker...
...fuckin' daddy...I hate you...I fuckin' hate you...I hate you...
...Piece of shit...I...ughhh...
When I awake I'll see your face when I awake I'll see your light
When I awake I'll see your face when I awake I'll see your light
Mother wake me from my dream, mother wake me in my light
And then you will have had never seen me again...
