Carcass - Tools Of The Trade Lyrics

Steel skin clips, forceps, grooved awl
Retractors, needles, gouges and saws
Intestinal clamps, blunt dissectors
Scalpels, pins, toothed directors

Tools of the trade, forceps and blades
Skillfully lathed, for us to maim

Bone levers, spikes, malleable scoops
Plates and chisels, screws and spoons
Drills, raspatories, files and durettes
Guillotines, gags and compression forceps

Tools of the trade, ripping the rib-cage
To remissly lustrate, so pleased to maim

Retractors, mallets, rugines and benders
Chisels, rods, sharps and catheters
Trephines, undines, irons and styrups
Depressors, tongues, sterile catgut

Tools of the trade, stainless steel blades
Painstakingly lathed, we're so pleased to maim
