I slither across the floor
And I sniff the hem of your brocaded garment
And you recoil in fear
At the sight of this lousy stinking varmint
I am on to you like lice on mice
I am inside your tick-tick-ticking brain
I am behind the wheel of your Volkswagen Bug
And I am driving you straight to insane
It’s all so very primal
My primal, primal urge
It’s all so very primal
My primal scourge
Is it the very sight of my decrepit body
That makes you wanna frickin' hurl
It's like opening up an oyster
Only to find rotting mold instead of a pearl
I am sorry if I make you sick
But this is me beneath the veneer
You can cast me out as so many others have
Or you can lean into your fear
