And I pushed away my plate and said boys I've had enough
Eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
They spread themselves before me an offering so sweet
I felt a rising in my throat the girls a-saying grace
So eat eat eat
As the street beneath my feet descending into hell
And the air, the viscous air pressed against my face
You eat eat eat
You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
And it all got too damn much for me just got too damn rough
And the women moved forward like piranhas in a stream
You eat eat eat
You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
'Cause I was down in Georgia nothing was as real
And I saw their souls a-withering like snakes in chains
And they beckoned and they beckoned come on darling eat
Eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
They circled around me natives in a ring
The cauldron was a bubbling, the flesh was lean
You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
And I opened up my veins to them and said come on eat
Eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
And they rattled their tales hissin' come on let's eat
And they wrapped themselves around me, what a treat
You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
And I laid upon the table another piece of meat
