Burdensome Blood
Caroliner, Caroliner Rainbow Open Wound Chorale
Walking each day I'm about to burst
Legs move myself. They feel the worst
Every knife in the house is mine
Carving on the legs makes 'em fine
Children wonder they fold face frown
Grabbing arms and legs, holding down
Oops, carved kids chopping wrist-notching hands
But stopping flowing best as they can
Slumbering children laying quilty by my feet
Holding on hard and it quit bleed
Blood clots up to fat red humps
Legs are kids with leggy stumps
Children can't pull loose of my leg
They got big idea: plead and cry, beg
OK, now walk on two legs more!
Pick my torso, hang up, walking on four
