The Final Course

(Verse)

I stare into a belly through the eyes of a beast

Made a toast to life and commence the feast

We chewed up mitten creams till our mouths would ooze and foul

Devour man from meat, sucking marrow from the bone

Washed it down with wine, Vintage 1953

Leaned back in our chairs, sucked a bone and picked our teeth

(Verse)

Gazing at our bellies, I watched the unfolding of time

Stricken by a bolt eyed brother, there's no way that child is mine

Silence gripped the table till the solving begins

And her console and (???) from the wives of all the men

To glare down at the plates, faces flushing red

The women now demanded a platter with my head

(Verse)

The knowledge in my head fit the anger in my heart

The vomit in my hands meant the chocking will soon start

I grabbed the throat of the nearest shrew, she was sitting at my right

Someone brammed me with a skelet, boom boom

(Verse)

I know the ... I was watching from above my body

Face down on the floor,

They gathered round my carcass, gasping at her(?)

What do we do about the body, someone cried

I heard them without abide, "there can be no trial"

But the meat all quickly changed and they all got down to work

That how was I who became the final course
