Intro:
ch /ch /ch
ch /ch
I fed upon the rotting fruit
Split the stalk and held the shoot
ch /ch
Spread the spores with every labored breath
ch /ch
Spit dissolved a mushroom head
Stretched the tendons 'till they snapped
ch /ch
I gathered up the shells with bandaged hands
ch /ch
To grow the meat of life
ch /ch
I will plant my seed
ch /ch
To grow the meat of life
ch /ch
I will
ch /ch
I fed upon the ripened fruit
Naked 'neath the monkey suit(?)
ch /ch
The feasting eggs found shelter in my shade
ch /ch
Their tiny tongues invade the crops
Unblinking eyes receive the drops
ch /ch
The crackling fire lulled me back to sleep
ch /ch
To grow the meat of life
ch /ch
I will plant my seed
ch /ch
To grow the meat of life
ch /ch
I will
ch /ch
To grow the meat of life
ch /ch
I will plant my seed
ch /ch
To grow the meat of life
ch /ch
I will
ch /ch
To grow the meat of life
ch /ch
I will
ch /ch
To grow the meat of life
ch /ch
I will
ch /ch
To grow the meat of life
ch /ch
I will
ch /ch
