Enzymes do the protein march Hm baa hm baa hm baa hm baa Enzymes do the protein march Hm baa hm baa hm baa hm baa How much vegetation have you got? Not a thing uppermost in the minds of girls Yet what a desert we create In the name of the great exfoliate On pain of dermal aggravation She opts for female sanitation Oh animal kingdom begins here Vegetable kingdom begins here Animal kingdom begins here Vegetable kingdom begins here How much vegetation have you got? Slack mi fatty bastis full of beasts Enzymes do the protein march Enzymes do the protein march Enzymes do the protein march Enzymes do the protein march Enzymes do the protein march Enzymes do the protein march Enzymes do the protein march Enzymes do the protein march An ecosystem much alive Attacked by corporate hygiene The great brillo of modern life Rape razing in the name of clean Oh animal kingdom begins here Vegetable kingdom begins here Animal kingdom begins here Vegetable kingdom begins here

Mary Houdini 01:51
My name is Mary Houdini I am an escapologist Quick limbed and versatile Bet your life can escape from anything My name is Mary Houdini There she was, now she's not There she was, now she's not Quick as a flash in a frying pan My name is Mary Houdini The technology of escapology Is something difficult and not for the novice La Houdini's escapability Thrills the crowd with its impossibility La la La Houdini La la La Houdini La la La Houdini La la La Houdini La

Balloon Girl 02:35
She went a walking down the street She saw the ground beneath her feet She heard the ground begin to hum Sounds like a ringing singing song Sounds like a ringing singing song Sounds like a ringing singing song Sounds like a ringing singing song Sounds like a ringing singing song And then she looked from left to right But there was nobody in sight Save but a humming in the ears But it is not what it appears. Sounds like a ringing singing song Sounds like a ringing singing song Sounds like a ringing singing song Sounds like a ringing singing song And then the ground begins to swell And then herself she swells as well She blew up like a fatted kite And flitted far away from sight Sounds like a ringing singing song Sounds like a ringing singing song Sounds like a ringing singing song Sounds like a ringing singing song

Cactus 04:16
She is blind to him Bad is bad is she don't know She is blind to him Saving her best for his pleasure She's a bind to him She saw with clearer eyes once She is blind to him Touching the hem of his fancy More than you more than you ever know More than you more than you ever know More than you more than you ever know More than you more than you ever know

Incineration 02:41
“Do you fell like a street caress? You're nice You've got a nice face Girl” Whether you do Whether or not That's what you get That's what you get Do you wear a propriety frock? Do you wear it? In the road? Whether you do Whether or not Your face is naked Or is it clothed Makes no difference Makes no difference A street caress That's what the dwarf said Whether you do Whether or not Your face is naked Or is it clothed Makes no difference In the road Go Dwarf He said to me Dwarf Dwarf Dwarf Oh dwarf

Big Pot 03:19
Seems like we're still in the kitchen A pease-broth brought to boil Stuck in a terminal stir Chucking it all in the air But the sky don't throw it back No the sky don't throw it back Sun's face is oil, sun's face is black Sun's face is oil, sun's face is oil What is it weighs on your brain-box? Is it the closeness of weather? Or are you allergic to garbage? Hankering after escape routes Everyone's frantically cooking Everyone's frantically cooking Sun's face is oil, sun's face is black Sun's face is oil, sun's face is black Measured per metre, we're done for Cubits of dross upon each head I'm wearing a hat That reaches through ozone

The rain it raineth on the just And also on the unjust fella But more upon the just because The unjust steals the just's umbrella The justly man is thus condemned, Attrition and a life of constant rain. The unjust man is not disturbed For one man's loss another's natural gain. Oh woe, oh woe is he, Oh woe, oh woe is he, oh woe. The justly man will thus erode And unjust men the world will overrun There'll be no more of charity And rainclouds shall pile up across the sun Oh woe, oh woe is he, Oh woe, oh woe is he, oh woe.
