Lyrics to Dead Meat
The day is a bore
The night is a scream
Just pull a stool, dear
You'll see what I mean
Feet don't fail me now
The TV's aglow
The patrons are dim
So stiff in their movements
With yellowy grins
Meat won't let them down
CHORUS:
There goes the sun
Under the rug
Hands on the clock will stop
And shoulders will shrug
Up comes the moon
A lump in your throat
Saxophones screech before
Your dinner will choke
The suckers in here
Belong in cartoons
With piccolo soundtracks
Performed out of tune
Feet don't fail me now
The band is undead
And earning their keep
They play "Take the 'A' Train"
To put you to sleep
Meat won't let them down
CHORUS
Dips his fedora
Says "well, how do ya...?"
Look in the mirror
No one there but you
Can't believe it's true
When he smiles
His incisors will gleam and bleed
You've made it before
But never again
Mistake of assuming
You're dealing with men
Feet don't fail me now
The barkeep is pale
And raises a toast
The blood in his chaser
Should scare you the most
Feet don't fail me now
Meat won't let them down
You've made it before
But never again
Mistake of assuming
You're dealing with men
Feet don't fail me now
Meat won't let them down
The night is a scream
Just pull a stool, dear
You'll see what I mean
Feet don't fail me now
The TV's aglow
The patrons are dim
So stiff in their movements
With yellowy grins
Meat won't let them down
CHORUS:
There goes the sun
Under the rug
Hands on the clock will stop
And shoulders will shrug
Up comes the moon
A lump in your throat
Saxophones screech before
Your dinner will choke
The suckers in here
Belong in cartoons
With piccolo soundtracks
Performed out of tune
Feet don't fail me now
The band is undead
And earning their keep
They play "Take the 'A' Train"
To put you to sleep
Meat won't let them down
CHORUS
Dips his fedora
Says "well, how do ya...?"
Look in the mirror
No one there but you
Can't believe it's true
When he smiles
His incisors will gleam and bleed
You've made it before
But never again
Mistake of assuming
You're dealing with men
Feet don't fail me now
The barkeep is pale
And raises a toast
The blood in his chaser
Should scare you the most
Feet don't fail me now
Meat won't let them down
You've made it before
But never again
Mistake of assuming
You're dealing with men
Feet don't fail me now
Meat won't let them down
