Lyrics
Take the inside of a cockroaches belly
Dump it inside of something that’s smelly
And raise the glass
Down it and pass
The dregs to me
Cuz baby I’m thirsty
Baby I’m thirsty
Ooh baby I’m thirsty
Rip the legs off of an ant’s two sides
And blend em with the hair of someone who lies
And raise the glass
Down it and pass
The dregs to me
Cuz baby I’m thirsty
Baby I’m thirsty
Ooh baby I’m thirsty
[instrumental verse]
Rip the wings off of a lacewing’s back
And fry it in someone else’s back fat
And raise the glass
Down it and pass
The dregs to me
Cuz baby I’m thirsty
Baby I’m thirsty
Ooh baby I’m thirsty
[instrumental verse x2]
