ChemoJam Baxter – Eulogy Lyrics
Lyrics
Verse 1
- Excuse me for intruding in your piece of hell
- I want to be at the table when the swollen world eats itself
- Grinning as it's licking the grease from its starving continents
- Carving the word 'par' in my heart as I pass the condiments
- Shred the documents
- I slept gripping an iron bar
- Sent my mind touring the dark side in a hire car
- The lit neon sign just read 'live a liar die a star'
- So I arrived with my severed tongue in a giant jar
- A barfly with a vile scar orders his seventh round
- The clandestine kids on the corner were selling brown
- And I was sporting organs that morphed into gormless orphans
- I taught to ignore the laws of this boring decrepit town
- They had the smack soup with them fat crack croutons, damn
- I almost puked into my Lapsang Souchong, fam
- Watching addiction rip the stitches out of introverts
- Is akin to clocking pigs in this city picking a kid to search
- It's butters
- I skipped desert and ripped the skies asunder
- Enveloped every atom left my skin beside the puncture
- The drowning kitten orchestra begin their final number
- To a riotous applause from the kids inside the bunker
- And everyday they grew less beautiful
- I'd kill 'em but I couldn't find a suplex suitable
- A mass of black suits swarm a moonswept funeral
- The eulogy was whispered by myself as usual
Hook
- Here lies your every mortal enemy
- Beaten to a pulp and packaged neatly in the cemetery
- Regrettably, you are now contractually obliged to sell your tongue
- For twenty pence
- And shovel maggots in your eyes
- Now shake my fucking hand (x3)
Verse 2
- Looks like I blew the whole shit up again
- Come we reverse time
- Drill a ditch and fill it with drug oil and desert wine
- And we can take turns powersliding into the night
- Riding a shrunken block of ice
- And return surfing the world blind
- Fine, let my face stew in the revelry
- Boil amidst the madness and straight ruin the recipe
- The breakthrough of the century
- How can you explain yourself with a brain trained to melt
- On command mewing incessantly?
- And when the whole world ate itself
- I stayed to hear the famous belch ringing round the dining hall
- As unborn babies fashioned ice picks from ribs
- And glued their hands to them with spit
- To stop them slipping down vaginal walls
- Bow to the head of the prang foetus club
- Still in the womb with his head in his hands creasing up
- Sneaking up, crawling out the gash and handing each of us a
- Pamphlet on why living isn't sweet enough
- Sour vibes
- Lather up and step out drunk
- I've seen it all before and never tore my flesh out once
- Your meal's been marinating in the sewer tied in tourniquets
- So never blame the waiters for your deadout munch
- Fussy diner turned untouchable pile of mess
- Compressed to a small spherical ball stuck to a wiry neck
- The smile suggests it was added purely for the asinine effect of
- Tricking its recipients
- Shit, give your eyes a rest
Hook
- Here lies your every mortal enemy
- Beaten to a pulp and packaged neatly in the cemetery
- Regrettably, you are now contractually obliged to sell your tongue
- For twenty pence
- And shovel maggots in your eyes
- Pick them up start shovelling (x3)
