I went downtown to have a look around There was nobody there but me Looked for the policeman on the corner There was none that I could see There were rats in the gutter they were giving me the shudders I was searching for my family The last time I saw them they were living in the basement Of a high rise facility Burned out cars were clogging up the street And lots of garbage but none that you could eat And to the creatures of the night I was just a piece of meat I could hear the hungry howls dripping from their slimy jowls As I beat a quick retreat I went down to the punk rock club To see if any of my friends were around The bouncer told me they were busy in the back room Butchering a dog they’d found He said man you should have been here late last night They ate some boat people live on stage And now the critics say that cannibalism Is sure to be the latest craze He showed me the bones piled high on the dance floor Said come back in a while they’re gonna eat a bunch more It’s the kind of entertainment that the crowds really go for I could see his skanky eyes checking me out for size As I headed out the door The night was cloudy and the moon was dead As I waded through pools of blood I noticed as it dried it stuck to my shoes Like the slimiest kind of mud I wondered what I looked like If my hairstyle was still all right But there wasn’t a mirror in sight So I jumped into a taxi the driver’s name was Maxie But she soon dropped dead from fright And all the while I was dreaming up a storm Wiping my forehead cause I felt a little warm Choking on the words that my mouth could not quite form I rolled over on my back and had another heart attack And hoped I wouldn’t get rebornTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
