Palms are fitted black and finely tuned 
To triggers, cause bodies that tremble 

But this mud looks shallow from the beach 
When we hide behind such ugly faces 
And the dark eyed woman lifts her head 
"Why do we hide behind such ugly faces?" 

Child-bearing games
From the streets down to the shores 
They're playing as waterways open
In an obscene gaping gasp

But this mud looks shallow from the beach 
When we hide behind such ugly faces 
And the dark eyed woman lifts her head 
"Why do we hide behind such ugly faces?" 

"Rally all your men (rally all your men)
There is work to be done" (there's work to be done)
Still we don't have the time for speaking out of place 

He won't come down (he won't come down)
He won't come down (he won't come down)

When lengths of snakes match each silent syllable 
"With eyes like these" 
Face glistening with suspense of a scalpel blade
Clockwork, calculating surgical precision

But this mud looks shallow from the beach 
When we hide behind such ugly faces 
And the dark eyed woman lifts her head 
"Why do we hide behind such ugly faces?" 

"Rally all your men (rally all your men)
There is work to be done" (there's work to be done)
Still we don't have the time for speaking out of place 

He won't come down (he won't come down)
He won't come down (he won't come down)
He won't come down (he won't come down)
He won't come down (he won't come down)

La, la, la da da
La, la, la da da
La, la, la da da
La, la, la da da
La, la, la da da
La, la, la da da
La, la, la da da
La, la, la da da

Palms are fitted black and finely tuned
To stomachs that swallowed whole that bayou

But this mud looks shallow from the beach 
When we hide behind such ugly faces 
And the dark eyed woman lifts her head 
"Why do we hide behind such ugly faces?"
