How do I feel for thee? You smell of great disease 'Cause we're young Fell in from the stars When your skin is dead On a pile of your head Now then, I look so smart Stove burn on my hands Show them to my friends Make you participate, okay Eyes roll back around When skulls hit the ground Visions to procreate Heaven should interfere I'm coming from your tears When they wander into their cage So their arms and thighs And their holy covered eyes Just yet, will never age Stove burn on my hands Show them to my friends Make you participate, okay Eyes roll back around When skulls hit the ground Visions to procreate Stove burn on my hands Show them to my friends Make you participate, okay Eyes roll back around When skulls hit the ground Visions to procreate Stove burn on my hands Show them to my friends Make you participate, okay Eyes roll back around When skulls hit the ground Visions to procreate Stove burn on my hands Show them to my friends Make you participate, okay Make you participate, okay
