lyrics

Squashed Mouse
Lyrics by M. Bonevicsh

Well it feels like autumn
But its summer masquerading around
In it’s black cloak and sickle
Cackling shivers up my spine
Kiss me harder kiss me with the words
The vibrant things of life
Tell me sweet lies
When death comes knocking be my alibi

But I’ll not be caught with my slacks around my ankles
Your panties damp upon my head
And I had a tip from the devil a couple of times before he said
keep your teeth in hell you won’t have any

But it feels like heaven
Just might be real
But I never, never did believe
But now I might as well.

Hey there squashed mouse
How does it feel to be someone’s glorious meal?
Was it tiresome? The act of being chased to death
Like a billion times before

After such a short time alive I though that you should be pissed
You’re smashed to the ground and drowned in a bucket of rain
Well I can just imagine what its like to see the cold hand of death
Come looking for you, grasping at your brain

But it feels like heaven
Just might be real
But I never, never did believe
But now I might as well.

One, two, three, four your heart remains scattered across the floor
Five, six, seven, eight you learn to appreciate every mundane chore
Nine, ten, eleven, twelve I never believed in heaven or hell but now I might as well
And if that man in a black cloak comes knocking tell him I’m not at home

But it feels like heaven
Just might be real
But I never, ever did believe
But now I might as well.
