Lyrics:

Well your mother was there to protect you
Your papa was there to provide
So how in the world did the excellent baby
Wind up in this hotel so broken inside
You lie on your bed in the midnight darkly
Listening to every sound
Watching the shadows for anything moving
And hoping they don't come around

'Cause it's dog eat dog
And it's cat and mouse
It's watch your step and cross yourself
And get back in the house
And it's do or die
It's push and shove
Because everybody's hungry
And there isn't quite enough

That's right, we're talkin' about the good life
In the foodchain
Love among the ruins
I guess that you've finally got to accept
That there's nothing you can do about it
It's kind of like carving the turkey
It's kind of like mowing the lawn
Everything gets to this certain dimension
Winds up on a customer's plate and then gone

'Cause it's dog eat dog
And it's the cat and mouse
You know it's cut the cake and grab a plate
And hope it goes around
I said it's a do or die
It's push and shove
It's because everybody's hungry
And there just isn't quite enough

Well it's dog eat dog
And it's the cat and mouse
You know it's cut the cake and grab a plate
And hope it goes around
And it's do or die
It's push and shove
That's because everybody's hungry
And there just isn't quite enough


You got your dog eating dog
And it's the cat and mouse
You know that it's close your eyes and you roll the dice
And you shut your filthy mouth
And it's do or die
It's kind of push and shove
That's because everybody's hungry
And there just isn't quite enough

Well it's dog eating dog
You got your cat and mouse
And you got to watch yourself and you cross yourself
And you get back in the house
And it's do or die
It's kind of push and shove
That's because everybody's hungry
And there just isn't quite enough

That's right, we're talkin' about the good life
In the foodchain
Love among the ruins
I guess that you've finally come to accept
It's just nothing you can do about it
It's kind of like carving the turkey
Kind of like mowing the lawn
Everything gets to this certain dimension
Winds up on a customer's plate and then gone
