Eat Your Young Lyrics

[00:21.33] I'm starvin', darlin', let me put my lips to somethin'
[00:26.81] Let me wrap my teeth around the world
[00:31.74] Start carvin', darlin', I want to smell the dinner cookin'
[00:37.58] I want to feel the edges start to burn
[00:42.30] Honey, I want to race you to the table
[00:47.98] If you hesitate, the gettin' is gone
[00:52.78] I won't lie, if there's somethin' to be gained
[00:58.55] There's money to be made, whatever is still to come
[01:04.34] Get some
[01:05.69] Pull up the ladder when the flood comes
[01:08.14] Throw enough rope until the legs have swung
[01:10.61] Seven new ways that you can eat your young
[01:14.29] Come and get some
[01:16.35] Skinnin' the children for a war drum
[01:18.62] Put in front of the table, sellin' bombs and guns
[01:21.62] It's quicker and easier to eat your young
[01:25.63]
[01:46.14] You can't buy this fineness, let me see the heat get to you
[01:52.18] Let me watch the dressin' start to peel
[01:57.04] It's a kindness, highness, crumbs enough for everyone
[02:02.68] Old and young are welcome to the meal
[02:07.64] Honey, I'm makin' sure the table's made
[02:13.54] We can celebrate the good that we've done
[02:18.09] I won't lie, if there's somethin' still to take
[02:23.59] There is ground to break, whatever's still to come
[02:29.66] Get some
[02:31.14] Pull up the ladder when the flood comes
[02:33.71] Throw enough rope until the legs have swung
[02:36.33] Seven new ways that you can eat your young
[02:39.67] Come and get some
[02:41.66] Skinnin' the children for a war drum
[02:44.35] Put in front of the table, sellin' bombs and guns
[02:46.90] It's quicker and easier to eat your young
[02:49.02]
