Animals

They descend upon the city like flies
Spraying their eggs into a dead dog's eyes
It's England on a Saturday night
Wish I could be like them and I try

But I find it more rewarding
To walk along the river
Picturing my body discarded in the water
I wonder who will do it
And I wonder what they're doing right now

They opened up the sewers tonight
Animals caged in their appetites
Let loose upon the passerby
People like me, just parasites

Take me to the river
I want to feel the water
Closing in and helpless as you're pushing my head under
I wonder if you'll do it
And I wonder what you're doing right now

It's four AM, you're lying right there
With urine and wine dried in your hair
You mean something to someone somewhere
Now half alive, too drunk to care

I'll take you to the river
I want to show you something
I'm making a map of all the flowers I'm collecting
I wonder if I'll do it
And I wonder what I'm doing right now
