[00:14.36] I was down in Georgia
[00:17.42] nothing was as real
[00:20.73] as the street beneath my feet
[00:23.97] descending into air
[00:27.72]
[00:33.91] The cauldron was a-bubbling
[00:36.89] the flesh was lean
[00:40.08] and the women moved forward
[00:43.36] like piranhas in a stream
[00:46.66] they spread themselves before me
[00:49.76] an offering so sweet
[00:52.88] and they beckoned and they beckoned
[00:56.68] come on darling eat
[00:59.93] Eat the summer cannibals
[01:03.24] eat eat eat
[01:06.10] you eat the summer cannibals
[01:09.79] eat eat eat
[01:13.78]
[01:19.33] They circled around me
[01:22.71] natives in a ring
[01:25.76] and I saw their souls a-withering
[01:28.94] like snakes in chains
[01:32.38] and they wrapped themselves around me
[01:35.80] ummm what a treat
[01:38.81] and they rattled their tales hissin'
[01:42.42] come on let's eat
[01:45.60] Eat the summer cannibals
[01:48.92] eat eat eat
[01:51.72] you eat the summer cannibals
[01:55.28] eat eat eat
[01:59.02]
[02:24.42] I felt a rising in my throat
[02:27.91] the girls a-saying grace
[02:31.22] and the air the viscous air
[02:34.53] pressed against my face
[02:37.65] and it all got too damn much for me
[02:41.08] just got too damn rough
[02:43.91] and I pushed away my plate
[02:47.34] and said boys I've had enough
[02:50.58] and I laid upon the table
[02:53.83] another piece of meat
[02:57.07] and I opened up my veins to them
[03:00.10] and said come on eat
[03:04.03] Eat the summer cannibals
[03:07.09] eat eat eat
[03:10.03] you eat the summer cannibals
[03:13.58] eat eat eat
[03:16.64] you eat the summer cannibals
[03:20.08] eat eat eat
[03:23.12] you eat the summer cannibals
[03:26.43] eat eat eat
[03:29.68] Cause I was down in Georgia
[03:33.18] nothing was as real
[03:36.73] as the street beneath my feet
[03:39.73] descending into hell
[03:42.79] So eat eat eat
[03:46.09] you eat eat eat
[03:49.34] you eat eat eat
[03:52.77] eat eat eat
