Vermilion Lyrics by Doc Backer

Salt

2023

Smeared shit on a page
Look mom I drew Mike Pence
I punched him in the face
‘Cuz he suggested how she dress
Let’s rape all the Catholics
God said it was a test
Winked and grabbed a lantern
And stumbled to the left
Argued a Muslim and a Christian
To see who hates more women
Both of you are imbeciles
And this conversation hypocritical

Drum lines play like the children of vermillion
Man once said “don’t kill but man he killing us”
Serrated their indifference with tongues and photosynthesis
He says oh she seems interested
No not if she didn’t mention it
No not if she didn’t mention it

The bird said to the basilisk
I don’t see the issue
If I turn into a stone
I turn into a missile
And you turn into tissue
Perhaps I’ve a penchant for minerals
The great snaked hissed in her rearview
Coiled the clutch and curved towards the sea
This big black bird has had enough of me

Drum lines play like the children of vermillion
Man once said “don’t kill but man he killing us”
Serrated their indifference with tongues and photosynthesis
He says oh she seems interested
No not if she didn’t mention it
He says that she seems interested
No not if she didn’t mention it
He says that she seems interested
No not if she didn’t mention it

They asked how many times have you killed consensually
They asked it not like they knew I was selling she
I lie of course like all my addicts
The light control we have of static
Enamored by his flaccid stature
Abysmal in their fractal manners
Useless near the depths of rapture
Softly swarm the swaths of raptors
And perch in lines along our mantle
It’s not too shabby yeah this thing compassion
It’s not too shabby yeah this thing compassion
It’s not too shabby yeah this thing called compassion

It’s not too shabby
No it’s not that shabby
No it’s not that shabby

Drum lines play like the children of vermillion
The man once said “don’t kill but man he killing us”
Serrated their indifference with tongues and photosynthesis
He says she seems interested
No not if she didn’t mention it

Drum lines play like the children of vermillion
Man once said “don’t kill but man he killing us”
Serrated their indifference with tongues and photosynthesis
He says she seems interested
No not if she didn’t mention it
No not if she didn’t mention it
He says that she seems interested
No not if she didn’t mention it
No bro no not if she didn’t mention it

Drum lines playing like the children of vermillion
Man once said “don’t kill but man he killing us”
Serrated their indifference with tongues and photosynthesis
He says oh she seems interested
No not if she didn’t mention it
