lyrics

i’m a pigless head sitting in the bathroom
wondering what happens next
i’m a pigless head how did I get here
was i alive or was i dead
i’m a duckless beak singing love songs
i’m trying to squawk but it comes out a shriek
somehow i know i’ve forgotten how to speak
what if I am a mouseless squeak

and i love you so much but i’m wearing thin
i’ve got bad feeling i could be a manless skin

the buzzards and bugs are closing in
i’m a pigless head i’m a manless skin

i’m the cowless horns
a double entendre a wave of trash in the falling sky
i’m a carless wheel i’m a sharkless fin
how do you like my shit-eating grin

i’m outrunning the storm and all the things i said
i’m so clever i’ll burst and my name will be fred
i will never forget you i’ll burst open instead
i’m a pigless head

i’m a pigless head sitting in the bathroom
wondering what happens next

the buzzards and bugs are closing in
i’m a pigless head i’m a manless skin
