LYRICS

Tiptoe behind the sapper

Who crawls through the minefield

Knife in the soil, and his ear to the ground

Hiding in his shadow, he takes the risks

You are the pimp who steals the sound

Fox breathes again, when the fox breathes again

When you spy a fresh face remember the rich taste

You want a part, at the cost of it all 

So you open your flick knife and lop off a thick slice

Envy makes the flyer fall

Please don't hitch a ride with us, you leave a slime that turns to pus

Your appetite is out of sight

I think I'll be feeding you dynamite

Please don't hitch a ride with us, you leave a trail that turns to pus

Your appetite is out of sight

I think I'll feed you dynamite

I'll never feed you again

When you spy a fresh face, remember the rich taste

You want a part at the cost of it all, so you open your flick knife

And lop off a thick slice

Envy makes the flyer fall

The only way to kill this breed is stuff his face, let him feed

Piling the plate, pushing the load, make him eat 'til he explodes

The only way to kill this breed is stuff his face, let him feed

Piling the plate, pushing the load, make him eat 'til he explodes

I'll never feed you again

I'll never feed you again
