What began as a harmless prank Resulted in a fire And we've only got ourselves to thank For the harpsichord and the lyre playing in the lobby of the bank As we wait in the light of the souls on display I want to eat a complete stranger and confess the next day What was once just a signal on the television Started thinking for us Now we're spending all our time wishing We were pixies in a forest And we'll never complete the mission And our country will fold when it's faced with a bluff I want to eat a complete stranger and another cause it's never enough Mine is such a sterile life Where all my dead people at Lets dig all y'all up Light your torch with whale fat and fill up your cup With the most refreshing magic Now who needs love when we got statistics To do all of the talking Now your braddy braddy hedonistics Better put up or start walking Cause the good 'ol boys in ballistics Have put you right there at the scene of the crime I need a bowl of human gumbo With Rosemary and Thyme Wine is deadly as the knife Drag your feet through your whole life And bring up the rear Take this man to be your wife Forget what you hear about the folks Who have all the money
