Lyrics:

I’m starving, Darling

Let me put my lips to something

Let me wrap my teeth around the world

Start carving, Darling

I want to smell the dinner cooking

I want to feel the edges start to burn

Honey, I

Want to race you to the table

If you hesitate

The getting is gone

I won’t lie

If there’s something to be gained

There’s money to be made

Whatever's still to come

Get some

Pull up the ladder when the flood comes

Throw enough rope until the legs have swung

Seven new ways that you can eat your young

Come and get some

Skinning the children for a war-drum

Putting food on the table selling bombs and guns;

It's quicker and easier to eat your young

You can’t buy this fineness

Let me see the heat get to it

Let me watch the dressing start to peel

It’s a kindness, Highness

Crumbs enough for everyone

Old and young are welcome to the meal

Honey, I'm

Making sure the table’s made

We can celebrate

The good that we’ve done

I won’t lie

If there’s something still to take

There is ground to break

Whatever's still to come

Get some

Pull up the ladder when the flood comes

Throw enough rope until the legs have swung

Seven new ways that you can eat your young

Come and get some

Skinning the children for a war-drum

Putting food on the table selling bombs and guns;

It's quicker and easier to eat your young
