lirik lagu aesop rock - homemade mummy
homemade mummy
get a corpse, get gauze, get comfy
shampoo and disinfect dead fluffy
for the hallowed excavation of his x-marked tummy
scalpel to stern, the b-tter cutter b-lines well
tongs b-tterfly the unzipped feline sh-ll
we’ll be escorting vital organs
with exception of the precious kittens heart
into the privacy of separate pickle jars
or mayonnaise or jelly pick a card
sh-t, pick a part and scissor
stomach, lung, intestine or liver
in a world of sanitizers and preservatives forever
brain exterminated through the whiskers (kiss & blow)
ditched, i blank ny alone
we usher in the salts that call the husk home
might embalm and stiffen and rid the fawn of all his liquids
slather it in beeswax, wrap it up in ribbons
like limb by limb, by tail by ear by chin
with the new hereafter i hereby win
i hope you vow to meow another day and never
decompose, by the way before we seal these molds
the shorten version goes…
take the brain out, leave the heart in
take the brain out, leave the heart in
paper playgrounds, leave your harvest
take the brain out…
gadzooks, punk’s dead, last good gut wrenched
antennae sam cook, black book pushead
cat skulls stacked to the black hole sunset
olive on a toothpick, dagwood b-mstead
tagged-hoof hatchery, matter am-ss naturally
bad wolf, dash for the last rook castling
blue ox, red plaid b-ss pro flannel king
hasbro crown, sour apple abba-zabba teeth
in poorly taken pictures antiquating on his mantlepiece
before we only spoke in letters cut from magazines
folk broke bear claws over gross coffee
not as milquestoast men, as los muertos walking
ergo the scarecrow in rare barley
squared-off harpy to armchair: say a prayer for me
i feel that mystifying times have gotten ugly
i also feel that you could learn a lot from a mummy
take the brain out, leave the heart in
take the brain out, leave the heart in
major take down, eat your porridge
take the brain out, leave the carc-ss
take the brain out, leave the heart in
take the brain out, leave the heart in
games to reign now, pleased to bargain
take the brain out, leafed in garlic
take the brain out, leave the heart in
take the brain out, leave the heart in
fading halos, feeding herpes
take the brain out, eager starlets
take the brain out, leave the heart in
take the brain out, leave the heart in
take the brain out, leave the heart in
take the brain out…
