lyrics

To the Slaughterhouse

Now that you see
the shoes you picked weren’t quite your size,
and the god you had by the balls
rained sulfur on you,
you can never go home.
There’s no prison break big enough for both of us,
and it takes different strokes, it takes different jokes
to paint the fiasco we’ve made of ourselves.

And now it’s on
to the slaughterhouse with you,
my lovely,
where they’re dying for some peace
and dignity.
To the slaughterhouse with you,
so you’ll think about me too.
I confess,
I’d like to be there when you start screaming,
when you start screaming,
when you start screaming.

St. Frank embarked, and he remarked
how great you looked
with a leper or three fastened to your knees.
He never knew how much it took
not to hold your nose when they got too close
– the harlot’s shame when she starts to show!
But here’s some hope to stick up
where your moon chose not to shine.
