When Judas came back
Pulling splinters from his hair?
As Carmella broke all the dishes
And the captain had a bag
Full of oysters with spines
Granting wine-soaked wishes
(Woman's voice)
Breathing the insect sounds with you
Breathing the insect sounds
Breathing the insect sounds with you
Breathing the insect sounds
(Man's voice)
My, what a fair boy
Let's coat him in blood
Make sure every inch of him's glistening
And the pirates all howl
To the black of the night
In the name of the twisted christening
(Woman's voice)
Breathing the insect sounds with you
Breathing the insect sounds
Breathing the insect sounds with you
Breathing the insect sounds
(Man's voice)
Well the winds died down
So we cut loose the helms
And all the men went back to sea
And I buried the heart
Of the ritual priest
At the foot of her dead old tree
(Woman's voice)
Breathing the insect sounds with you
Breathing the insect sounds
Breathing the insect sounds with you
Breathing the insect sounds
