I was born hermaphrodite Yet I could not f*ck myself Vestigial tail got snipped off Now it's in a jar upon the shelf My third nipple lactates wine My fourth a tiny beam of light My fifth nipple whistles low And calls the ravens home at night Covered by their jet-black wings I'm such a sight to see They open up their tiny beaks And groom the worms off me My family they were circus folk So I learned the knife routine Spinning wheel Akimbo limbs Flashing blades flew in-between And then I was a cannonball Supposed to soar above the stands But Sister packed too much powder So I blasted off towards other lands So high was I against the sky I sped above the trees I meditated on the sun And for a moment I knew peace I landed on an eastbound train Found a face that had no fear On the coal pile pledged my love To the daughter of the engineer But the engineer he went insane Steam shot from his metal claw He stoked the fire with dynamite And I woke up in Arkansas In a forest dark with pines I sunk into the loam I swore I'd never love again Thus I began to roam Some years hence, I volunteered In the Subterranean War I was 14 in '23 When the Troglodytes came through the floor They stole the babies and the dogs And pulled them underneath the ground By the time we reached the catacombs Some empty collar's all we found So I strapped on a flamethrower And I joined the Low Brigade Under Beirut, under Paris My bloody reputation made It was in the battle of the sewers As those I killed washed out to sea Amongst the screams of the mutating I forever lost my memory
