River Guts Lyrics by Peter Bibby

Butcher / Hairstylist / Beautician

2014

[Verse 1]
Well, I still have the river on me
Even though it's been days
Flies don't come around anymore
'Cause of my grimey glaze
Ah yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
[Verse 2]
And I still see the trees at night
Even in my sleep
I still eat the fish alive
No matter how quiet they keep
[Chorus]
And they stick around in my guts for a while
I feel them wrigglin' and a-writhin' and a-flappin'
Get together and they sing me a song
And sometimes, I feel like clappin'
Sometimes, I feel like dancin' around
And other times, I like to get nappin'
The other night, I met a fella at the pub
And he told me he likes to try rappin'
Oh yeah
[Verse 3]
And he still has his jeans on him
Even though it's been weeks
Sharks don't come around anymore
'Cause he's a trigger-crazed freak
Oh yeah, ah yeah, ah yeah, ah yeah
[Verse 4]
Well, he still hears them comin' at night
Even in that state
I'll still eat the big boys alive
Just gotta beat 'em at their game
Hey
[Chorus]
Well, they stick around in my guts for a while
I feel them wrigglin' and a-writhin' and a-flappin'
Get together and they sing me a song
And sometimes, I feel like clappin'
Sometimes, I feel like dancin' around
And other times, I like to get nappin'
The other night, I met a fella at the pub
And he told me he likes to get slappin'
Haha, yeah
[Bridge]
And you still have the mushrooms, cousin
Hidden with the clam
You should have known from experience
That I would never give a damn
You smell it stinkin' up at night
Even in your sleep
And I'll still eat the clam alive
No matter how loud the fungi shrieks
[Chorus]
And it sticks around in my guts for a while
Feel them wrigglin' and a-writhin' and a-flappin'
Gets together and they sings me a song
And sometimes, I feel like clappin'
Sometimes, I feel like dancin' around
And other times, I like to get nappin'
Well, I went out to a different pub
And I copped a mighty good slappin'
