Darling, I'm so hungry today
All the halls of Queen Victoria, I've let them fall away
Just to do what we can only ever say
But we're speaking the language of flowers

I know your father has the money of the Tsar
He's got men down in the harbour, unloading ships from India
And though the hand of fortune reaches far
There's a place beyond the limit of his powers

Where we feast on each other's bodies, where we claw and raise our breath
And lines intertwine, we die a little death
Where there isn't any border to our love
We're going out tonight, to the Cannibal Club

They found your brother in the alley with some men
They put him on a ship and sent him to Van Diemen's Land
To the edge of all we know and understand
And he disappeared into the south forever

Now everybody has a law they live and need
There are times I feel it's torn up as the meat between my teeth
Now I know what to do to get relief
What there is to save and what there is to sever

Revolution, revolution, it's a well-repeated song
There's a new world on the way that's always coming on
'Til it's time to throw it down into the mud
In the street below the windows of the Cannibal Club

The morning breaks into the room
Your dress is on the coffee table
And in the space between our skin
I feel the thing that pulled us here

The morning breaks into the room
Your dress is on the coffee table
And in the space between our skin
I feel the thing that pulled us here

Leaning over the balcony, they're playing their sitars
There's a smell of something coming from the abattoirs
But we feel the pleasure of the flesh and blood
In the room of many mirrors, the Cannibal Club

Revolution, revolution, it's a well-repeated song
There's a new world on the way that's always coming on
And we hold it tightly in a silken glove
We hold the future in our fingers, the Cannibal Club

We feast on each other's bodies, yeah, we claw and raise our breath
And lines intertwine, we die a little death
Now the feeling in me is rising to a flood
We're going out tonight, to the Cannibal Club

We're going out tonight, to the Cannibal Club
We're going out tonight, to the Cannibal Club
