Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Someone's in cold storage
Seekin' Heinz main courses
Craving for above
He'll hide you from the cleaver
He'll hang with you forever
Longin' for a fresh mate
[Verse 2]
By hook or by crook
You'll be first in his book
For an impaled affair
By hook or by crook
You'll be lost in his book
For flesh, oh, so rare
[Chorus]
Be a carcass
Be a dead hook
Relentlessly in love
Relentlessly in love
Relentlessly in love
Relentlessly in love
Be a carcass
Be a dead hook
Relentlessly in love
Relentlessly in love
Relentlessly in love
Relentlessly in love
[Verse 3]
Someone's left cold storage
Thawed in Heinz main courses
Carving for a new tin
He got you with the cleaver
He hung you up forever
Anticipatin' your skin
[Verse 4]
Out of the fryin' pan
And into the fire
Fifty-eighth variety
Out of the fryin' pan
And into the fire
Mother had her son for tea
[Chorus]
Be a carcass
Be a dead hook
Relentlessly in love
Relentlessly in love
Relentlessly in love
Relentlessly in love
Be a carcass
Be a dead hook
Relentlessly in love
Relentlessly in love
Relentlessly in love
Relentlessly in love
[Chorus]
In love with the pain
In love with the bleeding
In love with the pain that you now feel
As you became a carcass
We became a carcass
Carcass
Carcass
You became a carcass
Carcass
Carcass
Carcass
Carcass
[Outro]
Carcass
Carcass
You became a carcass
In love with the stumps
In love with the bleeding
In love with the pain that you now feel
'Cause you became a carcass
We became a carcass
Carcass
Get on your trolleys but don't whine, you swine
Carcass
You became a carcass
