MOSQUITO SONG

I know, I know the sun is hot
Mosquitos come suck your blood
And leave you there all alone
Just skin and bone

When you walk among the trees
Listening to the leaves
The further I go the less I know
The less I know

Where will you run
Where will you hide
Lullabies to paralyze

Fat and soft, pink and weak
Foot and thigh, tongue and cheek
You know I'm told they swallow you whole
Skin and bone

Cutting boards and hanging hooks
Bloody knives, cooking books
Promising you won't feel a thing at all

Swallow and chew
Eat you alive
All of us food that hasn't died
And the knife says

Simmering, pick and pluck
Tenderize, bone to dust
The sweetest grease, finest meat you'll ever taste
(Taste, taste)

So you scream, whine, and yell
Supple sounds of dinner bell
We all will feed the worms and trees
So don't be shy

Swallow and chew
Eat you alive
All of us food that hasn't died
