Vultures wait in the everglades staying very still They can calculate your fate: Danger Mosquitoes wait for the candidate staying very still Though they undulate they crave strangers But it's all they know It's all that comes through It's all they know And all that consumes with a violence It comes through in the silence I want you to know I want you Vultures fly over passersby with a hunting eye That is never dry and cries when it's all through Mosquitoes wait in the Bering straits hover high and low Over frozen space afraid hearts can freeze too And it's all you know It's all that comes through you It's all you know And all that consumes you with violence It comes through you in silence Vultures down in the underground In a tunnel where they are often found Surrounded but alone Mosquitoes swarm until early down With a life so short they can not afford Delaying, playing, saying, praying Cos it's all they know and all that comes through you It's all you know And all that consumes you in the silence It comes through you with violence I want you to know I want you
