Letra
I was down in georgia
Nothing was as real
As the street beneath my feet
Descending into air
The cauldron was a-bubbling
The flesh was lean
And the women moved forward
Like piranhas in a stream
They spread themselves before me An offering so sweet
And they beckoned and they beckoned
Come on darling eat
Eat the summer cannibals
Eat eat eat
You eat the summer cannibals
Eat eat eat
They circled around me Natives in a ring
And I saw their souls a-withering
Like snakes in chains
And they wrapped themselves around me Ummm what a treat
And they rattled their tales hissin'
Come on let's eat
Eat the summer cannibals
Eat eat eat
You eat the summer cannibals
Eat eat eat
I felt a rising in my throat
The girls a-saying grace
And the air the viscous air
Pressed against my face
And it all got too damn much for me Just got too damn rough
And I pushed away my plate
And said boys I've had enough
And I laid upon the table
Another piece of meat
And I opened up my veins to them
And said come on eat
Eat the summer cannibals
Eat eat eat
You eat the summer cannibals
Eat eat eat
You eat the summer cannibals
Eat eat eat
You eat the summer cannibals
Eat eat eat
Cause I was down in georgia
Nothing was as real
As the street beneath my feet
Descending into hell
So eat eat eat
You eat eat eat
You eat eat eat
Eat eat eat
Tradução da letra
Eu estava na Geórgia.
Nada era tão real
Como a rua debaixo dos meus pés
A descer para o ar
O caldeirão estava a borbulhar.
A carne estava magra.
E as mulheres avançaram
Como piranhas num riacho
Eles se espalharam diante de mim uma oferta tão doce
E eles acenaram e acenaram
Vamos, querida, come.
Come os canibais do verão
Come, Come, Come.
Comes os canibais de Verão
Come, Come, Come.
Eles circularam à minha volta, nativos num anel.
E vi as suas almas a definhar.
Como cobras acorrentadas
E eles enrolaram-se à minha volta. Que delícia.
E agitaram as suas histórias
Vamos comer.
Come os canibais do verão
Come, Come, Come.
Comes os canibais de Verão
Come, Come, Come.
Senti um aumento na garganta
As raparigas estão a dar graças
E o ar o ar viscoso
Pressionado contra a minha cara
E tudo se tornou muito difícil para mim.
E afastei o meu prato
E disse rapazes que já tive o suficiente
E deitei-me sobre a mesa
Outro pedaço de carne.
E abri-lhes as veias
E disse Vamos comer.
Come os canibais do verão
Come, Come, Come.
Comes os canibais de Verão
Come, Come, Come.
Comes os canibais de Verão
Come, Come, Come.
Comes os canibais de Verão
Come, Come, Come.
Porque eu estava na Geórgia.
Nada era tão real
Como a rua debaixo dos meus pés
Descendo para o inferno
Come, Come, Come.
Come, Come, Come.
Come, Come, Come.
Come, Come, Come.
