​​​equus

[Verse 1]
Can't keep them behind locks
The boys flock from the doors
You can't keep them from mistakes
They're bound to make
What a feast for the eyes
As a beast compromised
And they tell you of a place
Where your morals have no weight

[Refrain]
Hippuris, hippuris kerosene
Ooh, watch it burn
Ooh, equus so pristine
Ooh, watch me burn
Ooh, to cope with what you've seen

[Verse 2]
We all eat up what we're served
And we deserve what we got
Action calls for reaction
Are you like us or not?
And tear me limb from limb
Let offals guide us
As they tell you of a place
Where your morals have no weight

[Refrain]
Hippuris, hippuris kerosene
Ooh, I watch you burn
Ooh, to cope with what I've been
Ooh, I watch it burn
Ooh, to keep your conscience clean

[Chorus]
You told me that you'd seen a man
Sewn into the stomach of equus
What of my youth obsessed you?
What of my youth intrigued?
You told me that you'd seen a man
Sewn into the stomach of equus
What of my youth obsessed you?
What of my youth intrigued?
You told me that you'd seen a man
Sewn into the stomach of equus
What of my youth obsessed you?
What of my youth intrigued?
You told me that you'd seen a man
Sewn into the stomach of equus
What of my youth obsessed you?
What of my youth intrigued?
You told me that you'd seen a man
Sewn into the stomach of equus
What of my youth obsessed you?
What of my youth intrigued?

[Outro]
You told me that you'd seen a man
Sewn into the stomach of equus
