Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Dry drunk on a corner
Wet waste of a girl
Theme for a jackal
[Verse 2]
Play you a death song
You probably listen
Stand idly by as they rape your children
Like you do now
In fact, you showed them how
[Verse 3]
All thoughts are in place
All deeds are complete
Play, theme for a jackal, play
[Verse 4]
Die, sweet prince
Meat tastes like mince
The jackal's eaten enough for today
Die, sweet prince
Meat tastes like shit
Enough to make that jackal spit
Spit, jackal, spit
[Verse 5]
Spit and choke on the lives you've taken
You can't shake them loose
All morsels are gone, they're too small
Accessible from a source so tall
Little sister all of my love
[Verse 6]
"Bitch!"
"Bitch she is!"
Cut her from the inside out
[Verse 7]
Dead daughter in the river
Entrance gained by her liver
Play, theme for a jackal, play
[Verse 8]
They play you a death song
You probably listen
Stand idly by as they rape your children
Like you do now
In fact, you showed them how
Play, theme for a jackal, play
Play, theme for a jackal, play
