SLUG BAIT:
Slug bait
Can't wait
Slug slug bait
Can't can't wait

I crawl up the grass to your window
And then open up your room very slow.

Slug bait
Can't wait

I walk into your bedroom
Then I look at you with your seven months pregnant womb

Slug bait
Can't can't wait

I get your husband to your front bedroom
I cut his balls of with my knife KNIFE
I make him eat them right there
In front of his pregnant wife WIFE
He's into his balls off
I look at him very slow

Slug slug bait
Can't can't wait

As he bleeds to death on the floor
I want you to say don't do any more

Slug slug bait
Can't cannot cannot wait

I look at your big heavy stomach
It's already moving a little bit with your baby
I use the carving knife from your kitchen
I start to perform the operation
You say "No, no don't do that!"
I say, "I don't give a ... cat's whiskers."

Slug bait
Can't wiat [Note: yes this is actually what he says!]

I pull out your baby
I chew his hand off with my teeth
I lick him clean
It's obscene
As you bleed to death I kill it
I'm just a wicked boy

Slug slug bait bait
Can't can't wait wait
Slug slug bait
Can't Can't wait
Slug bait


MAGGOT DEATH:
Play a little game
Play your little game
Without any name
Put a record on
Put a record on
Maggot death
Maggot death
Maggot death
Maggot death
Maggot death
Maggots loose
Bad for you
I walk your park
A walk in the park
Feel the same
Play for time
I see the wife every time
I see the white leather thights
I got an act you want
I tell you what to do
I'm gonna ask you home
I know just what to do
Maggot death
Maggot death
Maggot death (Screams)
Maggot death
Maggot death
Maggot death
What did you want
Just a silly tart
You gotta go out now
Make you pay for death
Maggot death
Maggot death (just you)
You're just a lump in my bed
Eating up my head
