Eat or be Eaten

I got nothing to eat
In this old house
I gotta go out
And catch a mouse
I can't be wrong
So I gotta be right

Something's hungry
Like a hunter
And it's probing
Like a finger

As the drumbeat
Keeps things hurrying
That's the part
That's so appealing
It's the beat
That dominates
Each breath you draw
Each step you take
Strike or be stricken
Eat or be eaten

Yum yum yum yum
Eat or be eaten

Your skills
Are highly appreciated
But still
That girl can make magnetize
You sense
The hunger in her eyes
It's beat or be beaten
There's no softness
In her eyes
With a stubborn will
To tantalize
Like some cheap devil
In disguise
And it's troubling me
Hell it's nervy
That's what it is
Eat or be eaten
Strike or be stricken

The night is dark
The night is pulp
Tilt back your head
And take a gulp
Of air that's screamed
A thousand times
The main thing is
To victimize
It's just the night
For a conquering tribe
Oh it's just the night
For a conquering tribe
Eat or be eaten
Beat or be beaten
Faster than the arrow flies
Or the man who smiles
White he lies
It's just the night
For a conquering tribe and…

The girls are calling
In a yellow dress
That girl is calling
In a yellow dress
She says
"Eat eat eat here boys
Eat eat eat here boys."
And then a bop a doo ba
Doop ba adop a dooba
Ba bop booma bop a doo
Bop boom a doopee dee
A dop a doop a bum bayo
Bayum boombayumboom
