Swamp
Orion Rigel Dommisse Lyrics

I pulled my hands out of Virginia
I said
"I'm sorry yet again
I'm leaving you for a man
Frying chicken all day long
Your hair smells of grease
I bathe with you
I stink of it too
Drain the water please"
La da da da...

With dirt under my fingernails
I crawl out of the swamp
A bear trap closed on my legs
So I gnawed my foot off
Mosquitos have been feasting on what's left of my legs
I used to swat at them
But gave up after a day

La da da da...

The pavement burnt my torso
As my arms dragged it home
Was hungry in my blackened skin
Needed a man of my own
One foot left
The toenail scraping harshly as I slither
I scratched at your door frame
Praying you'll hear and come hither

La da da da...

You let me in
Licked me clean
And fed me what you could
I'd stay ugly and possessed
Your body, mind and food
One foot left
The toenail scrapin' harshly as I slither
I find an attic and to hide in and go live there

La da da da...
La da da da...
La da da da...
