Of Course Lyrics

Of course this land is dangerous
All of the animals are capably murderous

When I was a boy
My big brother held on to my hand
And he made me slap my own face
I looked up to him then, and still do
He was tryin' to teach me something
And now I know what it was
Now I know what he meant
Now I know how it is

One must eat the other who runs free before him
Put them right into his mouth
While fantasizing the beauty of his movements
A sensation not unlike slapping yourself in the face
Slapping yourself in the face
It's like slapping yourself in the face

Of course this land is dangerous
All of the big animals are capably murderous

When I was a boy
My big brother held on to my hand
And he made me slap my own face
I looked up to him then, and still do

And now I know what it was
Now I know what he meant
Now I know what it is

So one must eat the other who runs free before him
Put him right into his mouth
While fantasizing the beauty of his movements
A sensation not unlike slapping yourself in the face
Slapping yourself in the face
It's like slapping yourself in the face

I said, one must eat the other who runs free before him
Put him right into his mouth
While fantasizing the beauty of his movements
A sensation not unlike slapping yourself in the face
Slapping yourself in the face
It's like slapping yourself

Slapping yourself
Slapping yourself
Slapping yourself in the face
Slapping yourself in the face
Slapping yourself in the face

Of course this land is dangerous
All of the animals are capably murderous
