Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I go hungry
Pick at the shell
Paw at bottom
Of the well
[Verse 2]
I wear my body
[Verse 3]
I go bottom
Struggle for air
I go hummin'
Like a prayer
[Verse 4]
I wear my body
[Verse 5]
I wear my body, like a rotted peach
You can have it, if you handle the stink
I'm as open as a gutted pig
On the small of every back
You'll see a picture of me
Wearin' my body
[Verse 6]
I go guzzle
Scrape from the bin
Take it all
On the chin
[Verse 7]
I wear my body
