Lyrics

    I'll spread me open stuck to my ribs 
    are all your infants in abortion cribs 
    they run like roaches and try to die 
    I know your poison in our space we'll...lie, 
    to an obscene god we will dance and spit, 
    the skin is thin in our beds we sit,
    take off our rings and, we kneel, 
    our scabbed knees are so slow to heal...
    sketch a little boy hole for looking glass people 
    I don't want to be me 
    I don't want to fear no 
    mamma's got a scarecrow got to let the corn grow 
    a man can't always reap what he sows 
    (cut cut cut in pantomime mime mime
    I'll be your devil if you admit you're mine) 
    leave yourself to be ultra- here 
    the chill of fall is always crawling near 
    spiders in the flowers never know their smell 
    the barbers have know secrets they will never tell 
    (cut cut cut in pantomime mime mime 
    I'll be your devil if you admit you're mine)
