    G
I shake
                  A
And stare at the sun
                 A#
'Til my eyes burn
I shake
        C
At the mothers brutal vermin

I shake
And stare at the watery moon
With the same desire
As the sober Philistine
And I shake

Chorus:
A#              C
Turn and turn again
 G                   A
Worm, the pain and blade
A#              C
Turn and turn again

The screw
Is a tightening Atrocity
I shake
For the reeking flesh is as romantic as hell

The need
To have seen it all
The Voyeur of Utter Destruction
As beauty

Chorus:
I shake
Worm, the pain and blade
Turn and turn again
I shake
Turn and turn again
I shake
I shake
I shake

Needle point life
Blinds the will to be next
Call it a day
Research has pierced
All extremes of my sex
Call it a day
Call it a day
Needle point life
Blinds the will to be next
Call it a day
Call it a day
Call it a day
Call it a day
Call it a day
Call it a day
Call it a day
Call it a day
Call it a day
Call it a day
