Contrast to a pattern is like breeze to air
One stands still until the other is there
Stagnant and still without any will
Add turmoil and bring to a boil
Forget your pride, forget your woes
Forget your friends, forget your foes
For it is not their stew, without them it must brew
Stir the pot until it’s nice and hot
Add a little of this and whatnot
With a dash of despair and a lack of care
Forgetting all we were before you stir
Mix it round and round, ignore hope abound
Stir your pot, stir your brew
Watch it get hot, watch it stew
The aroma is sweet, there’s something missin’
Needs more stinky feet and throw some piss in
That’ll make it good and nasty
Tantalizing spices and wretched vices
Everything goes in, nothing’s a sin
Dance around the fire and a pot full of dishabille desire!
Everything dark and everything mean
A feast like this will keep me lean
I dance and jig about; I smile and do not pout
Still the sweetness of the smell, is not close enough to hell
More vinegar must I pour….
Now there’s the aroma I adore
Sweet and sour and nothing fresh, similar to that of rotting flesh
Can’t wait to feast until the middle of night
Everything’s wrong and nothing’s right
Oooh what a splendid recipe!
Come friends, come foes - come share with me!
Eat with me my putrid pudding of delight
Dine with me through the night
When the sun comes up I’ll go down.
Don’t like so much brightness all around.
