Promise something kill me right away if I start to get slow
And don't remember how to separate the worm from the apple
Don't wait til tomorrow kill me right away if I start to listen
To the voices telling all the mouths what they need to swallow
Do that for me it's the least that you can do
Don't be afraid I would do the same for you
Burn out any memory of me ever breathing until I'm born again
I was thirsty I remember that you gave me some water
I was angry at everything at once you gave me no trouble
I was crying I remember that you gave me you shoulder
Do that for me it's the least that you can do
Don't be afraid I would do the same for you
Burn out any memory of me ever breathing
Until I'm born again born again born again

Promise something kill me right away if I start to get slow/And don't remember how to separate the worm from the apple
“Black Saturday” opens with the same chord progression as “Ho Hey,” but blossoms further into earthy, Soundgarden goodness. The message seems to be one of request for euthanasia, in hopes that our singer rises like a new-and-improved phoenix – perhaps that was what the 16-year-hiatus was all about.
