Everybody Has To Eat
The Triffids
Everyone's a liar & most are known to cheat
Arsonists, embezzlers Everyone of them has to eat
Handshake & a how d' y' do Flawless set of teeth
I got stones inside of my shoes & Everyone of them has to eat
I got no creed nor colour I got no birthday treat
No alleigance to either side Everybody has to eat
I have a Devil's Advocate Finest in the business
He just can't be beat He drools & he stutters
& he twitches & he spits & he hisses thru his
broken teeth But my best friend is the liquor
man because he takes his main course neat
Smokin O P's Drinkin I O U's Takin' liberties
in the street
I hope I go by spontaneous combustion
in a scorching blaze of heat
I won't leave no mess at all oh no yeah yeah yeah
I don't believe I've had the pleasure but I
believe I have had my fill I'm gonna take a
walk to the end of this world I'm gonna buy
myself a thrill I'm gonna tie myself to a burning
buys I'm gonna teach myself to sink or
swim Cut off my legs put em in a brown
paper bag See how many ribbons and medals
I win Wel, I got no bone to pick with you
dear You're just not my cup of meat I'm
gonna have to cream my cherry pie
Everybody has to eat.
