Lyrics

1. EASY AS IT WAS

Twist, you're holy opposition twist
The twisted parts and pieces, this
I guess you'd better think it God
You knew that, easy as it was.

Come on, give me somethin' special
Somethin' I need
Drain the circle
Lay low, and never prove your power
Say so, so I can hear your words

Peel the skin away from my eyes
And look in.
See all the things that you put away
But you are inside.

Listen to me,
Cuz I can hardly exist
Without your little pussy
Give me holy water
I know that you will let me know.
Aah, Ah-oh-aah, Ah-oh-Aah, Ah-oh...Aah.


2. NOW A LIMO

Cold conditions
A lack of unions
He shot a prisoner
The state avoids him
Across the water
What lies under
Is it really
Like a thunder

Loud boom on a carryin' over
This law
Is Johnny's deception
This belt
Job of protection
This gun
Is your destination


3. GRINDING PROCESS

I think you tryin' to tear
But I stick with her spit
Keep thinking comic lines
Of those less fortunate
I must exterminate
The lucky haunted few
With my lottery.

My fingers need it back
It curls around her neck
She chokes her dying breath
And blows it in my face
Her sticky ploppy sticks
To my more waiting flesh
And blood runs from her mouth

For my last kiss to taste
For my last kiss to taste

I know that it's wrong
But I'm waiting to see
How very long I can keep up the pace.


4. #2 PENCIL

Number two pencil inside me
Half the lead is yards deep in my leg
Lick your tongue
Flat on the glass lathe
Smell the smell of peepee on this

Hold your hand toward my long fingers
It eats the pain intravenously
Cowardless, cordless, unnatural
To be used at your convenience
Convenience


5. AT A CRAWL

I'm crawling,
on my belly crawling,
sucking, living, drawn flesh.

And I'm crawling to the edge of somethin'.
suckin', living, divine mess.

Screaming with a vengeance.
Laughing as you're mocking me,
cry cuz I'm not ready for it.
You see?


6. DISINVITE

Open a vein
To watch it
It fits in
too much it

Disinvite
Dis- disinvite
Disinvite

When I'm looking alone
Trying alone

Disinvite
Dis- disinvite
Disinvite


7. SNAKE APPEAL

Now to succeed your way
Living with the ditties unchecked
Taken by the wheel in roulette
Now when the demons are unready

Now that you are living on flesh
Looking like a little bit of this
Tell me should I marry just for this?
Living on too much flesh

That's what caused your pain, yeah
Maybe this is all that killed it
You love it when it's strange, yeah


8. SHOW OFF YOUR RED HANDS

Living like a number, to let prune
Infectious onion, in place of you
Infectious my ruler will rule you
Infectious my ruler decides the way I live

Infectious, the way I live
I'm crazy, yeah

Never, never is an ugly word
Never, never is an ugly word


9. OVER FROM THE UNDERGROUND

10. CRAYFISH
