Lyrics

Life to me is a monkey's paw
Scurry around, follow monkey laws
Dead man knocking at the door
Say a man's free but I don't believe it


(What's a man but skin and fluids
Hair and nerves and hate-gland humming
Rub its tender pink protrusion
Lick the corn from seeping crevice)

Pull the cover from the vat
Watch them writhe like naked rats
Fight for food and kill for trinkets
On these Hu-mans Glurk have mercy

(Tiny tongues that hum and quiver
Dewy ¬damp the pink parts glisten
Bake skin loaf in slick hot oven
Thrust and gut the wet love salmon)

Trapped down here by a monkey's paw
Spawn and die is nature's law
Grunt and hump and make some more
Raised in a cage & I want to leave it.
