Headless Grasshopper
Every night when I go to bed
Upon the pillow I rest my head
I hear the tiny sounds once more
Upon my pillow
Upon my pillow, ah
Line of tiny army ants
From the backpack sugar stack
Every single night
Their mission is my misery
They worked for three years straight
Just for my arm they aimed to amputate, ah
Back three years ago
I did a deed I don't want to know
Ignorantly I kicked the nest
Little did I know
Lines of little creatures came to haunt my sleep, ah
They're biting down
Three hundred thousand of them now
They form the line
Cant stop them now I'm sleeping
An eye for an eye leaves both of us blind in the end
Limb for a limb makes everybody slim
An eye for an eye leaves both of us blind in the end
Limb for a limb makes everybody slim
An eye for an eye leaves both of us blind in the end
Limb for a limb makes everybody slim
An eye for an eye leaves both of us blind in the end
Limb for a limb makes everybody slim
An eye for an eye leaves both of us blind in the end
Limb for a limb makes everybody slim
An eye for an eye leaves both of us blind in the end
Limb for a limb makes everybody slim
An eye for an eye leaves both of us blind in the end
Limb for a limb makes everybody slim
An eye for an eye leaves both of us blind
Upon the pillow I rest my head
I hear the tiny sounds once more
Upon my pillow
Upon my pillow, ah
Line of tiny army ants
From the backpack sugar stack
Every single night
Their mission is my misery
They worked for three years straight
Just for my arm they aimed to amputate, ah
Back three years ago
I did a deed I don't want to know
Ignorantly I kicked the nest
Little did I know
Lines of little creatures came to haunt my sleep, ah
They're biting down
Three hundred thousand of them now
They form the line
Cant stop them now I'm sleeping
An eye for an eye leaves both of us blind in the end
Limb for a limb makes everybody slim
An eye for an eye leaves both of us blind in the end
Limb for a limb makes everybody slim
An eye for an eye leaves both of us blind in the end
Limb for a limb makes everybody slim
An eye for an eye leaves both of us blind in the end
Limb for a limb makes everybody slim
An eye for an eye leaves both of us blind in the end
Limb for a limb makes everybody slim
An eye for an eye leaves both of us blind in the end
Limb for a limb makes everybody slim
An eye for an eye leaves both of us blind in the end
Limb for a limb makes everybody slim
An eye for an eye leaves both of us blind
