Talking to the butcher and not to the block makes speaking all easy   It takes my lot   Picks the bones and talks like a book   with no leaves in its spine, in its spine      Take the fire poker out of your spine   and the lazy tongs out of your fish hooks   Take the marbles all out of your mouth   Talk at me with this, me with this      Hungry dog    Eats my parts   Where's my spine?   In him   Good dog, eat spine      Good patient be played in kind    And because it's late, delay is on my mind   Unless it comes along      Hungry dog    Eats my parts   Where's my spine?   In him   Good dog, eat spine      Good patient be played in kind    And because it's late, delay is on my mind   Unless it comes along
