lyrics

Dead Mans Maggot

Better when I’m bitten bitten once, twice scared
Third time cold, forth/fifth time frozen, sixth I’m not quite there
Sickly sick and I gt an itch and a hunger that I can’t quite fix
And I’m barely recognised for all the blood in my hair
Throbbing through the ventricles and frothing at the mouth
I’ve been chomping at my own tongue for too long now
So I sink my teeth into fresher meat and the chambers from the hearts that
Theyre not needed anymore, they’re just useless fucking meat
Every bite ignites a plight of……..

Bombs, a bomb, another stupid song,
The more I keep on dropping them, the more they dance along
To the pound for pound of gypsy horror sounds
I died and then I woke up in the under ground
And now Im walking dead
But I’ll dance instead

The sceptics, the septic, the crass and the sadistic
The heroic, the poetic, the deliberately pathetic
Critics with acrylics scribbling over relics
The fun and idiotic…..everyone will get it
I wager that the winners and their snigglers, and thoses ugly little sinners with their filthy little sniggers will be first to go
Everytime that you get burned is devoured on the day you turn so grab a fucking seat and watch the world implode
Every bite ignites a plight of……..

Bombs, a bomb, another stupid song,
The more I keep on dropping them, the more they dance along
To the pound for pound of gypsy horror sounds
I died and then I woke up in the under ground
And now Im walking dead but I’ll dance instead

We’re equally cursed and blessed, to ache with such blunt recklessness
We all bite more than we chew, cus we’re greedy and glutty fools
So don’t get so distressed when you get covered in all of that mess
When you bite more than you chew and its all over you
