It was cold, I could see my breath
The light was blue and bare
And dancing up on the hooks
Everyone was just hanging there
They moved so slow
They move so slow
But they got no reason to hurry
They're not going anywhere
I just got back from the meathouse
They got all our lovers hanging there
I took a look into the meathouse
They package all our heroes there.
I walked right down the line
Saw every preocess every stage
All the cutting and the chopping
Everyone was falling apart
I stopped real near the end
Where they hang so still
Every skinless face I saw
I'd seen somewhere some other time
I just got back from the meathouse
They got all our lovers hanging there
I took a look into the meathouse
They package all our heroes there.
I don't like seeing old friends
It's never quite the same
We used to have such fun
But somehow people always change
Now they hang and I stare
And I can't tell them apart
Old friends or old enemies
Or just people that I knew.
