I was down in Georgia nothing was as real   As the street beneath my feet descending into air      The cauldron was a bubbling, the flesh was lean   And the women moved forward like piranhas in a stream   They spread themselves before me an offering so sweet   And they beckoned and they beckoned come on darling eat      Eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat   You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat      They circled around me natives in a ring   And I saw their souls a-withering like snakes in chains   And they wrapped themselves around me, what a treat   And they rattled their tales hissin' come on let's eat      Eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat   You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat      I felt a rising in my throat the girls a-saying grace   And the air, the viscous air pressed against my face   And it all got too damn much for me just got too damn rough   And I pushed away my plate and said boys I've had enough      And I laid upon the table another piece of meat   And I opened up my veins to them and said come on eat      Eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat   You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat   You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat   You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat      'Cause I was down in Georgia nothing was as real   As the street beneath my feet descending into hell      So eat eat eat   You eat eat eat   You eat eat eat   Eat eat eat
