Lyrics Robyn Hitchcock

Robyn Hitchcock

Eaten By Her Own Dinner

A rich fat pussy with nothing to think

Stared down the plug hole and fell in the sink

A rich fat pussy with nothing to stroke

Stuffed a tomato and started to choke

Smoked a tomato and punched in the tissues

That ruptured all over her mouth

A rich fat pussy in a sea of milk

Of fur and flags and skin and silk

But choking on a rubber gnat

Her feet stuck out beneath her hat

She was eaten by her own dinner

Eaten by her own dinner

The chandelier went down on her and covered her with crystal twigs

There's no way back tonight my friend

As waves of gravy swamped her thighs

Her skin is full of money

Her mouth is full of meat

And she makes love to everybody

Walking down the street

Avocados filled her breast

Cauliflower filled her brain

Ripe bananas were her fingers

Syrup flowed through every vein

Her lungs inflated by chapatis

Fragile spicy valves of air

For what was hair, but now is seaweed

Mackerel sprouted everywhere

And what had been her handsome nude

Was now a writhing mass of food

As meat and vegetables, too

Ganged up upon the creature who

Had preyed on them so long

So long

Bye bye

She was eaten by her own dinner

Eaten by her own dinner

Eaten by her own dinner

Eaten by her own dinner

Eaten by her own dinner

Eaten by her own dinner

Eaten by her own dinner
