Melons Rising Lyrics - Meat Puppets - Meat Puppets

mercy monster grant your doom 

encase your brain in an airtight tomb 

forget that the tree bears good fruit to eat 

chop it down and burn it for temporary heat 

I'm not putting you down, don't get me wrong 

I realize the number of trips other than the one I'm on 

but I demand the same and I most surely condone 

that you all realize it and leave me alone 

glowing members of the radiant mush 

squeeze down hard and feel the bones crush 

mechanical children in a metal town 

open your eyes and watch the rats drown 

there's never been a book of rules, and those 

that say there is are fools, the rain falls 

softly on the barren trees 

across the ocean blows a little breeze 

soon my factory's gonna shut down 

I'll go back to the accepting ground 

but until that day this walking mire 

to greater heights will aspire
