The Mint that Grows behind the Dumpster Lyrics by Heccra

The Devil​-​Faces of My Old Friends, Beneath Me

2015

Kitty kitty cat
Kitty kitty cat
Won't you run faster and not look back?
Strip the branch as you trip, and uh
Squeeze hard 'til you reach the pit
And the juice bleeds out all down your wrists
And the dirt sticks to the sticky spots
And the trees grow out your hands
When you're dead in the forest
And I stand above you with my axe
Kitty kitty cat, "is that you?" I wonder
Frolic in the mint that grows behind the dumpster
You're dead in the forest and you've got to hell
And I'll surf the lava on my turtle shell
From Nintendo in my basement
Cops are coming to get me, be patient
To grate me to goo on the pavement
When you're dead in the forest and I've got no backup plan
You'll never get
Take my brain
You'll never get
Take my brain
Oh no, oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no, oh no
