Various - Florence Quits LYRICS

[ Not actually on the CD but included in the songbook . . .
Subsequent to the events you have just witnessed,
similar events in cities across America,
events which bore a striking resemblance
to the ones you have just seen, began occurring.
Subsequent to the events you have just witnessed,
unsuspecting jerks from Maine to California
made the acquaintance of a new breed of flytrap
and got sweet-talked into feeding it blood.
Thus the plants worked their terrible will,
finding jerks who would feed them their fill.
And the plants proceeded to grow and grow,
and begin what they came here to do,
which was essentially to eat Cleveland
and Des Moines and Peoria and New York . . .
and where you live!]
They may offer you fortune and fame, love and money and instant acclaim.
But whatever they offer you, don't feed the plants.
They may offer you lots of cheap thrills, dates and discos in Beverly
Hills.
But whatever they offer you, don't feed the plants.
Look out! Here comes Audrey Two.
Look out! Here I come for you.
(Here I come for you.)
Here I come for you.
(Here I come for you.)
Hold your hat and hang on to your soul.
Something's coming to eat the world whole.
If we fight it we've still got a chance.
But whatever they offer you,
though they're slopping the trough for you,
please, whatever they offer you, don't feed the plants.
(We'll have tomorrow.)
Don't feed the plants.
