Lyrics: 

I'll make a shoehorn outta your skin 
I'll make a lamshade of durable skin 
And on, don't you know that I'm always feelin' able 
When I'm sittin' home and I'm carvin' out your naval 
I'm just a'sittin' here carvin' out your naval 

When will I realize that this skin I'm in 
Hey it isn't mine 
And when will the kill be too much meat for me to hide on 

Hey, I could really use a couple of hands 
To complete one hell of a plant stand 
Oh, don't you know that I'm caught here in the middle 
Making rib cages into coffee tables 
I'm just makin' em into coffee tables 

And when will I realize that this skin I'm in 
Hey it isn't mine 
And when will the thrill be too much meat for me to find anymore 

Oh because you know I can't hide, but oh how hard I try 
But this is just the shape I'm in 
And though you know I can't hide but oh how hard I try 
But this is just the shape I'm in
