PHISH - Cavern lyrics

rate me

Your time is near, the mission's clear<br>It's later than we think<br>Before you slip into the night<br>You'll want something to drink<br>Steal away before the dawn, and<br>Bring us back good news<br>But if you've tread in primal soup<br>Please wipe it from your shoes<br><br>Just then a porthole pirate<br>Scourged the evening with his cry<br>And sanctuary bugs deprived<br>The monkey of it's thigh<br>A dust arose and clogged my nose<br>Before I could blink twice<br>Despite the stuff that bubbled up<br>I gave some last advice:<br><br>The flesh from satan's dogs<br>Will make the rudiments of gruel<br><br>Deduct the carrots from your pay<br>You worthless swampy fool<br><br>Exploding then through fields and fen<br>And swimming in the mire<br>The septic maiden's gargoyle tooth<br>Demented me with fire<br>I drifted where the current chose<br>Afloat upon my back<br>And if perchance a newt slimed by<br>I'd stuff it in my sack<br><br>Soon I felt a bubble form, somewhere below my skin<br>But with handy spine of hedgehog<br>I removed the force within<br>Suzie then removed her mask<br>And caused a mighty stir<br>The angry mob responded<br>Taking turns at grabbing her<br><br>The foggy cavern's musty grime<br>Appeared within my palm<br>I snatched rick's fork to scrape it off<br>With deadly icy calm<br><br>[(original lyrics - from 4.22.90)<br>The brothel wife then grabbed a knife<br>And slashed me on the tongue<br>I turned the blade back on the bitch<br>And dropped her in the dung]<br><br>The crowd meanwhile had taken sue<br>And used her like a rag<br>To mop the slime from where the slug<br>Had slithered with the bag<br><br>In summing up, the moral seems<br>A little bit obscure...<br><br>Give the director a serpent deflector<br>A mudrat detector, a ribbon reflector<br>A cushion convector, a pitcher of nectar *<br>A virile dissector,a hormone collector<br><br>* or a penile erector (4.22.90, 10.31.90), or a picture of nectar<br><br>Whatever you do take care of your shoes
