Summer Cannibals

I was down in Georgia nothing was as real

As the street beneath my feet descending into air

The cauldron was a bubbling the flesh was lean

And the women moved forward like piranhas in a stream

They spread themselves before me an offering so sweet

And they beckoned and they beckoned come on darling eat

Eat the summer cannibals eat eat eat

You eat the summer cannibals eat eat eat

They circled around me natives in a ring

And I saw their souls a-withering like snakes in chains

And they wrapped themselves around me what a treat

And they rattled their tales hissin' come on let's eat

Eat the summer cannibals eat eat eat

You eat the summer cannibals eat eat eat

I felt a rising in my throat the girls a-saying grace

And the air the viscous air pressed against my face

And it all got too damn much for me just got too damn rough

And I pushed away my plate and said boys I've had enough

And I laid upon the table another piece of meat

And I opened up my veins to them and said come on eat

Eat the summer cannibals eat eat eat

You eat the summer cannibals eat eat eat

You eat the summer cannibals eat eat eat

You eat the summer cannibals eat eat eat

'Cause I was down in Georgia nothing was as real

As the street beneath my feet descending into hell

So eat eat eat

You eat eat eat

You eat eat eat

Eat eat eat oh eat
