well ah jumpt! and fled this fucken heap on doctored wings
|
mah flailin pinions, with splints and rags and crutches!
|
(damn things nearly hardly flap)
|
canker upon canker upon one million tiny punctures
|
that look like...
|
long thin red ribbons draped across the arms of a lil mortal girl
|
(like a ground -plan of Hell)
|
curse these smartin strings! these fucken ruptures!
|
enough! enough is enough!
|
(if this is Heaven ah'm bailin out)
|
if this is Heaven ah'm bailin out
|
ah caint tolerate this ol tin-tub
|
so fulla trash and rats! Felt one crawl across mah soul
|
for a seckon there , as thought as wassa back down in the ghetto!
|
(rats in Paradise! rats in Paradise!)
|
ah'm bailin out! there's a mutiny in Heaven!
|
|
ah wassa born...
|
and Lord shakin, even then was dumpt into some icy font,
|
like some great stinky unclean!
|
from slum-chuch to slum-church, ah spilt mah heart
|
to some fat cunt behind a screen...
|
|
evil poppin eye presst up to the opening
|
he'd slide shut the lil perforated hatch...at night mah body
|
blusht
|
to the whistle of the birch
|
with a lil practice ah soon learnt to use in on mahself
|
punishment?! reward!! punishment?! reward!!
|
well, ah tied on...percht on mah bed ah was...
|
sticken a needle in mah arm...
|
|
ah tied off! fucken wings burst out mah back
|
(like ah was cuttin teeth!!)
|

|
(rats in Paradise! rats in Paradise!)
|
there's a mutiny in Heaven!
|
|
oh lord, ah git down on mah knees
|
(ah git down on mah knees and start to pray)
|
|
|
wrapped in mah mongrel wings, ah nearly freeze
|
in the howlin wind and drivin rain
|
(all the trash blowin round 'n' round)
|
from slum-heaven into town
|
ah take mah tiny pain and rollin back mah sleeve
|
(roll anna roll anna roll anna roll)
|
ah yank the drip outa mah vein! UTOPIATE! ah'm bailin out!
|
UTOPIATE!
|
if this is Heaven ah'm bailin out!
|
mah threadbare soul teems with vermin and louse
|
thoughts come like a plague to the head...in god's house!
|
mutiny in Heaven!
|
(ars infectio porco Dio)
|
to the plank!
|
(rats in Paradise! rats in Paradise!)
|
ah'm bailin out!
|
(hail Hypuss Dermio Vita Rex!)
|
hole inna ghetto! hole inna ghetto!
|
(Scabio Murem per Sanctum...Dio, Dio, Dio)
