Default Do you understand death/black metal?

This may sound like some sort of deep, touchy feely thread, but unfortunately it is much more literal than that. When listening to death metal or similar genres, do you actually understand the lyrics/words they are singing? Not in a deep way, just the actual words being spoken? Now, I myself have no clue for the most part, although that being said, I often do not hear 100% of the lyrics of 'clear' vocals so not sure if it was just me, or others have the same problem.

For example:


Now this is probably a very clear song compared to others, and I do understand a lot of it, with just a few parts escaping me.

Where as this:


Other than, I ejaculate fire, it all escaped me, and when looking at the parts with the lyrics, it makes sense, I can hear the words, but without it, I am clueless. BTW, Dethklok is from Metalocalypse an animated tv series which is actually REALLY good.

Care to share what you hear?

Thanks
