[00:10.833][Chorus: Aesop Rock & Kimya Dawson]
[00:10.833]It's important to give away your pieces
[00:16.081]In the detail surrounding your death
[00:21.093]There will always be a need for the pieces you are made of
[00:27.826]You may one day need a few pieces yourself
[00:32.079][Post-Chorus: Kimya Dawson]
[00:32.339]Jen stood at the finish line
[00:39.083]And waited for Dylan to cross
[00:44.332]Then she rested her head on the young boy's chest
[00:49.840]That held the heart of the little girl she'd lost
[00:54.076][Verse: Aesop Rock]
[00:56.575]Outside of the influential arms of your idolatries
[00:59.084]The object will be turning goodbyes into good biology
[01:01.824]There will be a DOA who has some parts that seem okay
[01:05.084]Coinciding with someone you know that needs a piece replaced
[01:07.833]And we will stand around the corpse, fishing in a well of ribs
[01:10.333]Treasure hunting just before they show you where the devil is
[01:13.331]Nobody is judging you to vilify the guilty
[01:15.840]I will cut and dry, be leaving with your kidney
[01:18.089][Chorus: Aesop Rock & Kimya Dawson]
[01:18.593]It's important to give away your pieces
[01:23.584]In the detail surrounding your death
[01:28.833]There will always be a need for the pieces you are made of
[01:35.083]You may one day need a few pieces yourself
[01:40.082][Post-Chorus: Kimya Dawson]
[01:40.328]Turtle gave its shell to the
[01:44.830]Crab who gave its eyes to the
[01:46.577]Bird who gave its wings to the bat
[01:52.087]The bat gave its sonar to the
[01:55.580]Dolphin who gave its blowhole to the
[01:57.840]Whale who gave its tail to the cat
[02:03.330][Verse 2: Aesop Rock]
[02:03.580]Outside any biases or post mortem reliances
[02:06.836]A moment of silence that needs a poster-boy for science
[02:09.592]There will be a system which allows them to unzip your skin
[02:12.337]Cherry-picking innards from the synthesis they pickle in
[02:15.324]And someone that you never meet will wake on a convenient day
[02:18.082]Marvel in the lucky news, plug into your DNA
[02:20.825]And know the love inside a dying human's final gesture
[02:23.832]I will cut and dry, be leaving with your liver
[02:26.076][Chorus: Aesop Rock & Kimya Dawson]
[02:26.332]It's important to give away your pieces
[02:31.581]In the detail surrounding your death
[02:37.094]There will always be a need for the pieces you are made of
[02:43.081]You may one day need a few pieces yourself
[02:47.083]It's important to give away your pieces
[02:53.834]In the detail surrounding your death
[02:59.574]There will always be a need for the pieces you are made of
[03:05.838]You may one day need a few pieces yourself
