"Eriatarka" lyrics - THE MARS VOLTA

And there are those who hadn't found the speaking so wrong
Is it wrong?
Of Pavlov lore, they ran rampant through the floors
Is this wrong? Feels so wrong
Happened on a respirator, in the basement
Are they gone, are they gone?

[Pre-Chorus:]
Strung the slang of a gallows bird
Rationed a dead letter pure
Oh, oh

[Chorus:]
Track-marked amoeba lands craft
Cartwheel of scratches
Dress the tapeworm as pet
Tentacles smirk, please
Flinched the cocooned meat
Infra-recon forgets

Now there are those who find comfort in the breathing wrong
Is it wrong?
It houses the watchful eyes
Panting in a pattern in droves
Are they gone?
Happened on a respirator, in the basement
Is it gone, are they gone?

[Pre-Chorus:]
Strung the slang of a gallows bird
Sanctioned a dead letter pure
Oh, oh

[Chorus:]
Track-marked amoeba lands craft
Cartwheel of scratches
Dress the tapeworm as pet
Tentacles smirk, please
Flinched the cocooned meat
Infra-recon forgets

[Bridge:]
Evaporated the fur because it covers them
If you only knew the plans they had for us
Evaporated the fur because it covers them
If you only knew the plans they had for us
They used to have pulses in them
But impulse has made them strong
They used to have pulses in them
But impulse has made them strong
Evaporated the fur because it covers them
If you only knew the plans they had for us

[Chorus:]
Track-marked amoeba lands craft
Cartwheel of scratches
Dress the tapeworm as pet
Tentacles smirk, please
Flinched the cocooned meat
Infra-recon forgets

[Post-Chorus:]
Gotta be a way of getting out
Are you just growing old?
Track-marked amoeba lands craft
Cartwheel of scratches
Dress the tapeworm as pet
