I know, I know the sun is hot
Mosquitos come suck your blood
Leave you there all alone
Just skin and bone
When you walk among the trees
Listen please to the leaves
The further I go the less I know
The less I know
Where will you run?
Where will you hide?
Lullabies
To paralyze
Thought and soft, pink and weak
Foot and thigh, tongue and cheek
You know I'm told they swallow you whole
Skin and bone
Cutting boards and hanging cooks
Bloody knives, cooking books
Promising you won't feel a thing
At all
Swallow and chew
Eat you alive
All of us food that hasn't died
And the light says
Somehow they pick and pluck
Tenderize bone to dust
The sweetest grease, finest meat you'll ever taste
Taste, taste
So you scream, whine, and yell
Supple sounds of dinner bells
We all will feed the worms and trees So don't be shy
Swallow and chew
Eat you alive
All of us food that hasn't died
