Kinderfeld

He lives inside my mouth
Tells me what to say
When he turns the trains on
He makes it go away
Hands are cracked and dirty
And the nails are beetle wings
When he turns the trains on
He unties all of the strings

[The Worm:]
Tell me something beautiful
Tell me something free
Tell me something beautiful
And I wish that I could be

When I got my wings, and I never even knew it
When I was a worm, thought I couldn't get through

[Jack: (not spoken)]
Come, come

Toys all smell like children
And the scab knees will obey
I'll just have to kneel on broomsticks
Just to make it go away

And all the children sing to the worm

[The Inauguration Of The Worm]
Then I got my wings and I never even knew it
When I was a worm, thought I couldn't get through it

[A voice we have not heard yet:]
Because, today is black
Because, there is no turning back
Because, your lies have watered me
I have become the strongest weed
Because, today is black
Because, there is no turning back
Because, your lies have watered me
I have become the strongest weed, weed

[Through Jack's eyes:]
The taste of metal, disintegrator
Three holes upon the leather belt
It's cut and swollen, the age is showing

[Boy:]
There's no one here to save ourselves

[The Disintegrator: (to himself)]
This is what you should fear
You are what you should fear
This is what you should fear
You are what you should fear
This is what you should fear
You are what you should fear
This is what you should fear
You are what you should fear
This is what you should fear
You are what you should fear
This is what you should fear
You are what you should fear
