Stabbed to Death Outside San Juan

Lyrics

The winter's wet, and the summer's hot
 Take a match in Puerto Rico, why not
 ♪
 Power and adrenaline flowing like amber
 From the recesses of the earth, put on your waders
 And twitch when the water runs high sometimes
 Twitch when the tide ebbs low
 ♪
 See the sights, maybe go downtown
 Sometimes you get some heat, sometimes it follows you around
 ♪
 When the blade hits the bone, everybody hears it sing
 Shower room full of people, no one hears a goddamned thing
 A twitch when the current runs wild sometimes
 Twitch when the contact howls
 ♪
 All that racket out there in the arena
 I'm on a stretcher, here come the cleaners
 ♪
 And the sky goes dark and there I am
 Climbing down the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram
 I drop from the top of my tall steel cage
 Drop to the concrete floor
