lyrics

Eat em jack wins every brawl
his strong left hook will dislocate your jaw
He leave you bloody and enthralled
You can find him at the suicide hall

The social ladder quickly climbed
To no surprise he leads a life a crime
And one thing many might find queer
his favorite dish is human ear

Eat em up eat em up, eat em up jack
Eat em up eat em up, eat em up jack
Eat em up eat em up, eat em up jack
Eat em up eat em up, eat em up jack
Eat em up eat em up, eat em up eat em up
Eat em up eat em up, eat em up jack
Eat em up eat em up, eat em up eat em up
Eat em up eat em up, eat em up jack

he'll rob and he'll leave you for dead
and eat your ear right off your head
It hurts like hell but what's worse is
The sound of being digested

The grind of teeth is thunderous
a chew is hardly a caress
but even more hellacious
is descending his esophagus

the discord of the the mucosa
the msucularnis externa
provides a dissonant attack
your ear heads down to the stomach

the acid stings like sonic pain
your hand is on your head in vain
But the deadly, most hellacious sound
is hearing your self leave his bowels

Eat em up eat em up, eat em up jack
Eat em up eat em up, eat em up jack
Eat em up eat em up, eat em up jack
Eat em up eat em up, eat em up jack
Eat em up eat em up, eat em up eat em up
Eat em up eat em up, eat em up jack
Eat em up eat em up, eat em up eat em up
Eat em up eat em up, eat em up jack
