lyrics

(INTRO)Yeah the fruits they are sweet- and the butter is rich- but your baby is dying- and your mamma she’s sick- so how much would you pay for one long lasting lick- say how much would you pay to delay the tick of the clock-

(CHORUS)chop it up chop it up- chop it up chop it up- chop it off chop it off- I let my edges fall off

(VERSE 2) I let my edges fall off- I hear the birds start to sing again- I watch the flowers bloom- and I lock hearts with you- cut into ripe flesh of fruit- let my lace swimsuit- drop

(CHORUS)chop it up chop it off- chop it up chop it off- chop it off chop it off- we’re in too deep to stop

(VERSE 3) stop wishing- start working- that philosophy is really hurting- you- in the time it took us to take- they gave us everything we used to think we wanted- gave it to us by mistake- now im afraid that we might make- it to the top

(FINAL CHORUS/ OUTRO)chop it up chop it off- chop it up chop it off- chop it off chop it off- and all the peaches gonna pop-
sold my body to those dogs- sold my soul to the gods(X2)

(FINALE/ VERSE 4) And I can’t make it stop (X2 or 3)
