lyrics

with no expectation to return boy
you've invented a few new ways to die
I need you black mother magic
to shed some light on the alien spaceman
get it right...

stepping back you may return
to the mother of your soul
one murder after another
so sad they eat you whole
with every good intention
of finding your way out

fishnet hook in the lips
in the sense that you fish
fishnet hook in the leg
at the door at the cows
and you stand at the car
and the car it's upside down
and stare at the clowns
and the clowns has a gun
and the way that you go
you will be so very cold

well I've been to the other side in my little boat
I got my fishing pole
I got my little worm
I've seen the alien
he's Pygmalion
he's a bastard’s son
he's just like everyone
he's a battery just like you and me

overcome a lisp
give his legs a twist
scream in dire pain
at the crescendo of the cantata’s refrain

and all the people jump outa the water
with an open mouth
it's the moment he's been waiting for!

with no expectations to return boy
you've invented a few new ways to die

oh yeah, we'll get by...
