Verse 1
Oh, you wanna talk shop, you gothed-out fop?

Go back to Hot Topic and shop for a top

There's a melancholy alcoholic laughing stock

In the King's house, now watch the Castle Rock

Pouty little poet with an opiate affliction

I'm a workaholic with a fiction addiction

I'm making dedicated readers shivery and jittery

Feel that Rage and Misery

You better start Running Man, you're in deep poo, Poe

I'm a mad dog, fangs Shining, Cujo

Tommyknock you down till you can't Stand up

You're as soft as Po, the Kung Fu Panda

Racks on racks cause I pen fat stacks of frightening writing, have you seen the pile?

I can even take a break from my routine style

Crank out a Shawshank or a Green Mile

Masque of the Red Death? Barely blood curdling

Pit and the Pendulum? Not even unnerving

Perving on your first cousin when she's thirteen years old? Now that's disturbing

Verse 2
(sigh) Speaking of bored, you're the worst

Dropped out of school but you can't drop a verse

I could have spent that time better

In eight bars I can write a whole best-seller

I'm so prolific this sickly goblin won't be bothering me, I'm on a clobbering spree

And I'll be smacking you with any of the big thick books in my big dick bibliography

See, I'm the author with the blood and gore lore galore that'll horrify a reader to the core

Fame? Money? Talent? Success? You'll always have less! Never more!

Real Stephen King's Lyrics
Stephen King posted these real lyrics on Twitter:

Listen here, Poe, never seen a rapper as lame as you,

I'll fill your Pit and bust your Pendulum, too!

Mr. Poe, you're boilin' in Hades,

While I'm ridin' chill with Mr. Mercedes!

Trivia

 * He is the fourth writer to appear, following William Shakespeare, Dr. Seuss, and Edgar Allan Poe.
 * He is Zach Sherwin's first character who is neither fictional nor dead.
 * The Real Stephen King tweeted "Good news/bad news kind of thing: MR. MERCEDES comes out tomorrow, but I think Poe shut me down in the rap contest. :-(". and later he tweeted "Listen here, Poe, never seen a rapper as lame as you. I'll fill your pit and bust your pendulum, too. Uh…maybe better stick to books?" and "Mr. Poe, you're boilin' in Hades while I'm ridin' chill with Mr. Mercedes. Yeah, better stick to books. Put a hold on the rap album." This is the 2nd time someone that was portrayed in a rap battle mentioned it, the first being Donald Trump.
 * Zach Sherwin mentioned on Twitter that the song playing when he filmed his slow motion dance at the end of Stephen King vs Edgar Allan Poe was "Umbrella" by Rihanna.
