lyrics

Have you ever seen the blob 1958?
It was the moment i saw myself portrayed
on a screen all awful and pulsing and hungry
swallowing towns, inhaling people who
run from me
what an awful movie
what an awful way
to realize parts of me were the same

now I’m reminded of being told by my mom
bout this first scary movie she saw when she was young
it scarred her so bad she broke into hives
sat in the bath and screamed and cried
now i’ve become that little girl
running from the ooze and goo from out of this world
but it’s me and I’m it, its damn strong
I’m afraid this poor world doesn’t have long

the worst part about walking alone down the street
is realizing no one’s gonna love anyone exactly how they need
did you hear that? it barely had time to scream
i hope it never gets to feed
I hope it always stays hungry
i hope it never gets what it needs.
i’m full of black goo and it pours from me without cause
maybe i don’t know how to love
if you hold me you’ll fall right in
to all this hot jello poison
that’s disintegrating
everyone and everything
till I’m no longer hungry
till i no longer have to feed
oh my god if this is it I hope i never get what i need
