Hozier - Eat Your Young Lyrics

Verse 1
I'm starving, darling
Let me put my lips to something
Let me wrap my teeth around the world
Start carving, darling
I wanna smell the dinner cooking
I wanna feel the edges start to burn

Pre-Chorus
Honey, I wanna race you to the table
If you hesitate, the getting is gone
I won't lie if there's somethin gto be gained
There's money to be made, whatever's still to come

Chorus
Get some
Pull up the ladder when the flood comes
Throw enough rope until the legs have swung
Seven new ways that you can eat your young
Come and get some
Skinning the children for a war drum
Putting food on the table selling bombs and guns
It's quicker and easier to eat your young

Verse 2
You can't buy this fineness
Let me see the heat get to you
Let me watch the dressing start to peel
It's a kindness, highness
Crumbs enough for everyone
Old and young are welcome to the meal

Pre-Chorus
Honey, I'm making sure the table's made
We can celebrate the good that we've done
I won't lie if there's something still to take
There is ground to break, whatever's still to come

Chorus
Get some
Pull up the ladder when the flood comes
Throw enough rope until the legs have swung
Seven new ways that you can eat your young
Come and get some
Skinning the children for a war drum
Putting food on the table selling bombs and guns
It's quicker and easier to eat your young
