Lyrics for Such A Scream - Milan - 07/18/08

Better brace yourself for the eyeball kid The features go clank and boom and steam Head or wings, horns and tail Trouble and coal inside my dream There are no laws, she's made of cream She's such a scream Spat 'em! Spat 'em! All crooked lines and round face Milk drains from clean machine gun ace The plow is red, the well is full Inside the dollhouse of her skull A cheetah coat fills up with steam She's such a scream Spat 'em! Spat 'em! Spat 'em! Spat 'em! Spat 'em! Spat 'em! Spat 'em! Spat 'em! Spat 'em! Spat 'em! Evil drapin' nails instrument A darling gal from mortal clay The plow is red, the well is full Inside the dollhouse of her skull And her cheetah coat, it fills up with steam She's such a scream Spat 'em! Spat 'em! Spat 'em! Spat 'em! Spat 'em! Spat 'em! Spat 'em! Spat 'em! Spat 'em!
