Lyrics for Being Sucked in Again

A dorsal fin breaks the water Salted meat a sudden relapse Inference drawn from every word Being sucked in again Feeling numbed from anaesthetised flesh Avoid disgrace, ideas still fresh The gaping mouth, a fish-wive's dream Bound and gagged your labour's saved The cost minute, the rules are waved No hand, no step, your labour's in vain
