[Verse 1: Titanic Sinclair]

Parasitic intergalactic savages

Land here in 2033

Having destroyed three planets before

The star force came to feed

I saw my brother devoured

A river of blood when they tore off his head

But now they've organized a system for harvesting human flesh


[Chorus: Poppy]

Plug me into the feeding machine

Ten in a pen pressed against me

Cut out my tongue so that I can't scream

There's meat, there's meat on me

Antibiotics keep me alive

Now that everyone I love has died

Hang me up and strip me clean

There's meat, there's meat on me


[Verse 2: Titanic Sinclair]

You've heard stories about the free ones

The few who escape the aliens' grip

Living underground in sewer cities

In the damp and dark they resist

But I don't know if I believe it

When they caught me, there weren't many left

And they force us to breed in here

I just hope they kill me quick


[Chorus: Poppy]

Plug me into the feeding machine

Ten in a pen pressed against me

Cut out my tongue so that I can't scream

There's meat, there's meat on me

Antibiotics keep me alive

Now that everyone I love has died

Hang me up and strip me clean

There's meat, there's meat on me


[Verse 3: Titanic Sinclair]

They grind up the sick to maximize efficiency

And mulch them back into our feed for optimal delivery

I hear the slaughterhouse screams

Out on the killing floor

And I hope they taste my adrenaline

Soak up my pus-filled sores


[Chorus: Poppy]

Plug me into the feeding machine

Ten in a pen pressed against me

Cut out my tongue so that I can't scream

There's meat, there's meat on me

Wrap me up in cellophane

Labeled "organic", label me "grade A"

My tendon is caught between your teeth

There's meat, there's meat on me


[Outro: Poppy]

There's meat, there's meat on me

There's meat, there's meat on me

There's meat, there's meat on me

There's meat, there's meat on me
