Hey there now young one wholly, swing along
Quote the scriptures, keep them guessing
Which pit you crawled from.
Just defy it, just deny it, was it fun?
Your time has come-
What have you done? what have you done?

That's when the insults start to sting
You can't remember anything
The chorus chime in, the greek chorus,
The machine of god singing

It's the poison that in measures brings
Illuminating vision
It's the knowing with a wink that we expect in
Southern women
It's the wolf that knows which root to dig
To save itself
It's the octopus that crawled back to the sea

That's when the insults start to sting
You can't remember anything
The chorus chime in, the greek chorus,
The machine of god ring!

Hammered, shooting plywood in the backyard
Laughing 'cause the racket makes the
Blackbirds sing
Write the holy terror, suck the marrow from
The bone- singe
Your own wings burning books, you got the
Chorus and the ring

That's when the insults start to sting
You can't remember anything
The chorus chime in, the greek chorus,
The machine sings
That's when the insults starts to sting
You can't remember anything
The chorus chime in, the greek chorus,
The machine sings

That's when the calibration brittle as a stick
Gets you the gold ring
And the tar museum che guevera wink,
Gold ring
Gold ring.

Sing.
Sing.
Sing.
Sing.
