Lyrics:
The lead track on Good Morning Spider, “Pig” speaks directly to Linkous' experience following his infamous overdose in 1996.
He said about “Pig”, “I was mad that I can’t have my old body back.”
Why don't you sing me that
Pretty lullaby
Then when you're singing great
Pack it all up
I want a new face right now
And I want it bad
I want a new body that's strong
I'm a butchered cow
I wanna try and fly
I wanna try and die
I wanna be a pig
I wanna fuck a car
I want a new face right now
And I want it bad
I want a new body that's strong
I'm a butchered cow
I wanna be a stupid and shallow motherfucker now
I wanna be a tough-skinned bitch, but I don't know how
I wanna be a shiny new baby with a spongy brain
I wanna be a horse full of fire that will never train
