Eat Your Young Lyrics

I'm starvin', darlin'
Let me put my lips to something
Let me wrap my teeth around the world
Start carvin', darlin'
I wanna smell the dinner cooking
I wanna feel the edges start to burn

Honey, I wanna race you to the table
If you hesitate
The gettin' is gone
I won't lie
If there's something to begin
There's money to be made

Whatever's still to come and get some
Pull up the ladder when the flood comes
Throw enough rope until the legs have swung
Serve in new ways that you can eat your young
Come and get some
Screaming the children for a world run
Like in front of a table, see them ups and downs
Walk on my knees and baby, eat your young

You can buy this, finest
Let me see the heat get to you
Let me watch the dressing start to peel
It's a kindness, highness
Crumbs are not for everyone
Our world ain't young, I welcome to the meal

Honey, I'm makin' sure the table's made
We can celebrate, the good that we done
I won't lie, guess there's something still to take
There is ground to blame

Whatever's still to come and get some
Pull up the ladder when the flood comes
Throw enough rope until the legs have swung
Serve in new ways that you can eat your young
Come and get some
Screaming the children for a world run
Like in front of a table, see them ups and downs
Walk on my knees and baby, eat your young
