  How  does a duck know
  what  direction south  is?
  And  how to tell his wife from  all the other ducks?
  You  can cut a chicken's head off
  but  it will keep on running  and twitching.
  When  everything seems planned  out
  when  everything seems nicely  planned out
  well  the human race will  come and smack your face
  How  come all my body parts
  so  nicely fit to gether?
  All  my organs doing their jobs,  no help from me.
  A person  pulls a spider's leg out
  to  watch it keep on moving  and twitching.
  When  everything seems planned  out
  when  everything seems nicely  planned out
  well  the human race will  come and smack your face
  Satan
  lives  here
  on grain and earth, rain  and air.
  You  can put me in and iron lung
  and  I will keep on breathing  and twitching.
  When  everything seems planned  out
  when  everything seems nicely  planned out
  well  the human race will  come and smack your face
  You  might be dead, but  you keep your head.
