lyrics:
(here and there you will see an old prickly-haired woman
bending over the kitchen table
clearing away the plates after the KKK meeting has ended
or was it a tupperware party?
and all have gone to their own home sweet homes)

apathetic open maw
gristled teeth, unhinged jaw
witty cowards stand their ground
same spot later, nothing found

stand in line, do your due
bills piled up, noxious fumes
hall of power ornament
veins pump oil, congealed cement

judges pass down their decrees
nothing free will remain free
god will do as god will do
sews the spine, smears the glue
it's ok, it'll be fine
wash up beach, cough up brine
collect yourself, take it in
air is hell, flee back in
the ocean kills, so do they
freak and sin will have their day
