Excessive Consumption Has Laxative Affects

The living room
The frozen cheese plant
The awkward silence
With her, and her
The clock is ticking
So very loudly
So very slowly
There’s no escape

Excessive consumption has laxative effects
That’s what the sign said
t-t t-t t-t t-t t t
Time will tell

They want to kill me
Or want to love me
The door is closed
The air is close, and waiting
I’m under pressure
To be accommodating
We pray together
Through silent gritted teeth!

Excessive consumption has laxative effects
That’s what the sign said
t-t t-t t-t t-t t t
Time will tell

Excessive consumption
Laxative effects
Excessive consumption
Laxative effects
Excessive consumption
Laxative effects
Excessive consumption
Laxative effects

t-t t-t t-t t-t t t
Time will tell
