lyrics

Grey boots thumpin' on a big black gremelo
In Kentucky with my home-bred back yard wriggle pump
Hog tooth squirmin' under a big bright love plug
Anal warts tarnishin' a liquorish glove rug
Crotch bug swimming' through a bloody brown river

Syrup tinsel stringin' from a torso chain mope
Gotta get behind me pull me on a quadruple rope-a-dope
Misty moisty towellete on a cue ball mutton thump
Exercisin' demons with lashes to the rump
Sleepin' in a mud crack back yard wriggle

The proofs in the halibut poon-tang parfait
Got me moanin' and a groanin' like the goddam swamp thing
Bullwinkle hellhole gobblin' up the lip gloss
Lemmings in a mailbox slobbin' on pork hocks
Writhin' and squealin' in a back yard wriggle
