Queens of the Stone Age - Mosquito Song

Lyrics

I know, I know the sun is hot
Mosquitos come suck your blood
Leave you there all alone
Just skin and bone
When you walk among the trees
Listening to the leaves
The further I go the less I know
The less I know

Where will you run?
Where will you hide?
Lullabies
To paralyze

Fat and soft, pink and weak
Foot and thigh, tongue and cheek
You know I'm told they swallow you whole
Skin and bone
Cutting boards and hanging hooks
Bloody knives, cooking books
Promising you won't feel a thing
At all

Swallow and chew
Eat you alive
All of us food that hasn't died
And the light says

Somehow they pick and pluck
Tenderize bone to dust
The sweetest grease, finest meat you'll ever taste
Taste, taste
So you scream, whine, and yell
Supple sounds of dinner bells
We all will feed the worms and trees So don't be shy

Swallow and chew
Eat you alive
All of us food that hasn't died

Why is the second highest rated comment one of the worst backhanded compliments I've ever seen? The people who have given it a thumbs up are dumb motherfuckers. This song would be awesomely impressive if anyone else wrote it, but for QOTSA it's just them being bad ass as always!

As macabre as these lyrics, I feel strangely lulled by this music, and it's not because it's slow.

Could be 'cause it's 4AM, but I'd rather go with the fact that it's great music.

@Tullebananen Maybe your right and I've interpreted wrong but "quite impressive for a band like QOTSA" seems like a rather unflattering review in my opinion, kinda sounds like he's saying fair enough QOTSA have actually done an OK song
