"Holy Diver" was featured in the Season Three episode, "Hooked on Monkey Fonics".

Background[]

The heavy metal band Dio plays at the Bay of Pigs Memorial Dance for South Park Elementary. Mr. Cotswolds interrupted the performance, trying to find his daughter, Rebecca.

The band resumes playing the song shortly afterwards, joined by the Fonics Monkey on drums. The song then continues over the ending credits of the episode.

Lyrics[]

Holy Diver
You've been down too long in the midnight sea
Oh what's becoming of me
Ride the tiger
You can see his stripes but you know he's clean
Oh don't you see what I mean

Gotta get away
Holy Diver

Shiny diamonds
Like the eyes of a cat in the black and blue
Something is coming for you
Race for the morning
You can hide in the sun 'till you see the light
Oh we will pray it's all right

Gotta get away-get away
Between the velvet lies
There's a truth that's hard as steel
The vision never dies
Life's a never ending wheel

Holy Diver
You're the star of the masquerade
No need to look so afraid
Jump on the tiger
You can feel his heart but you know he's mean
Some light can never be seen
