Furry Green Atom Bowl
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Furry green eye in a furry green hole
It's a furry green atom bowl
Furry green eye in a furry green bowl
It's a furry green atom bowl
Spread that dust, spread that dust
Spread that dust in a reaching way
As the dead bug flares, dead bug flares
Dead bug flares in the swollen globe
Furry green mole in a furry green hole
It's a furry green atom bowl
Verdegris verdegris
Verdegris verdegris
Verdegris verdegris
The lid comes off like a casserole
The lid comes off like a casserole
The steam comes up the devil's nose
He knows, he knows, he always knows
He sits there in a silver cone
Drumming his fingers on a golden throne
He loves that smell
He loves that smell
That swollen bowl, it blew up whole
That swollen bowl, it blew up whole
And the black was hungry when it came down
So it et the world for miles around
Sticky black meat, sticky black meat
Will flood your street, will flood your street
Sticky black oil will boil your soil
Furry green eye in a furry green hole
It's a furry green atom bowl
Furry green eggs on furry green legs
Big ones, small ones, out they roll
Gonna shake my pie, gonna bake my soul
Well, it's a crusty old pie, it's a crusty old pie
But it's a crusty old world, it's a crusty old world
And underneath, underneath
There's roots and bulbs, roots and bulbs
Gonna mix 'em all up in the atom bowl
Big ones, small ones, out they roll
Big ones, small ones, out they roll
Big ones, small ones, out they roll
In a new formation
In a new formation
In a new formation
In a new formation
Spell a brand new world with the same old letters
There's roots in the earth and kidneys in the body
Roots in the earth and kidneys in the body
Roots in the earth and kidneys in the body
And that's the way to stay
There's roots in the earth and kidneys in the body
There's roots in the earth and kidneys in the body
There's roots in the earth and kidneys in the body
And that's the way to stay
There's roots in the earth and kidneys in the body
There's roots in the earth and kidneys in the body
There's roots in the earth and kidneys in the body
And that's the way to stay
