The Donkey-Headed Adversary Of Humanity Opens The Discussion

Lyrics

The d.h.a.o.h. opens the book
 The d.h.a.o.h. opens the discussion
 I am the adversary and must remain the adversary
 I am not yours to embrace
 I am not yours to invoke
 The d.h.a.o.h. sleeps in the hall
 Watches for signs of our imminent demise in the scratchings on the wall
 The d.h.a.o.h. sleeps in the park
 Listens for sounds of our eminent decay in the singing of a solitary lark
 Mankind is a plague
 Breathing hell into every corner of the rotting earth
 Even now in this our finest hour I feel the hate of every stone, tree & flower
 Even now we fall under the long shadow of the donkey's ears
 Even now we listen for the slow grinding of the donkey's teeth
 Lalala we weep in the din of the stomping of the donkey's black hoof
 Lalala we weep for the slow coming of our doom (Dance)
 Mankind is a plague
 Breathing hell into every corner of the rotting earth
 Even now in this our finest hour I feel the hate of every stone, tree & flower
 Eaters of the soil take us into the ground
 Death by worm
 Eaters of the air drive us from the blue
 Death by sparrow
 Eaters of the sea take us into the green
 Death by eel
 Eaters of the scraps take in our beds
 Death by dog
 Eaters of the soil take us into the ground
 Death by sand
 Eaters of the air drive us from the sky
 Death by flower
 Eaters of the green take us into the sea
 Death by water
 Eaters of the scraps take us in out beds
 Death by stone
 Death by silence
 Death by sorrow
 The d.h.a.o.h. closes the book
 The d.h.a.o.h. closes the discussion
