I make my living up in the sky - and that's no shit F I look the eagles in the eye - no shit, that's what I do.

I used to feel so unimportant Going nowhere in a dull, dead-end job Now I'm bursting with proud rigor mortis Since I got the memorandum from Bob Hey man, you can eat my head I'm not sorry that I ran out of lead For I've seen the light of the dawn of the dead And I've got putrefaction We're rotting to pieces and I like it that way You don't have to wear a tie, the dress code's “casual decay” Was it toxic gas or a virus? Or am I a parisitical host? Deep thoughts like that go right by us Since our mentis began to compost Hey man, come contract our strain And stagger around the haunted terrain Chill with your pals and nibble on brains Enjoying putrefaction We rise from the graveyards in a shambling, moaning throng Like decomposing foundlings from a cabbage patch gone wrong Now my skin's adhesions and lesions Are something I have come to enjoy For my leprous lack of cohesion Makes me the entropy poster boy People to eat and cities to burn Nothing to stress about, worry or learn Shotguns are my only concern 'Cause I've got putrefaction Hey guys, it's time to attack To secure some tasty cranial snacks We're all cephalophiliacs 'Cause we've got putrefaction 'Cause we've got putrefaction 'Cause we've got putrefaction
