Shut Up And Swallow Lyrics
<i>"You know the truth."
"Where are you?"
"You could call it the end of the world.."</i>
You fucking parasite
Feeding off my voice like a leech
Sucking me dry
Use your head
Hope you're gagging in your throat
Hope you gag and choke
Your pale little face turning blue
If you want it in your ass as I spit in your face
Face down on the floor holding you by your neck
Do you feel like a wreck?
Well that's life, kiddo
Now shut up and swallow
Shut up and swallow
You'll get nothing for free
Don't try to suck it off me
You always take you what you want
Now I just take what is mine
I'll give you abstinence
You tell of life..
It's up to you to fill it with substance
I'll play your game
A lesson of life: It's not what you want, but what you get
You'll feel it from within as I work my way out
Such a pretty girl, but such a dirty mouth
Now you want it in your ass as I spit in your face
Face down on the floor, holding you by your neck
Do you feel like a wreck?
Well that is life, kiddo
Now shut up and swallow
Shut up and swallow
<i>"Where are you?"
"You could call it the end of the world."</i>
"Where are you?"
"You could call it the end of the world.."</i>
Feeding off my voice like a leech
Sucking me dry
Use your head
Hope you're gagging in your throat
Hope you gag and choke
Your pale little face turning blue
Face down on the floor holding you by your neck
Do you feel like a wreck?
Well that's life, kiddo
Now shut up and swallow
Shut up and swallow
Don't try to suck it off me
You always take you what you want
Now I just take what is mine
I'll give you abstinence
You tell of life..
It's up to you to fill it with substance
A lesson of life: It's not what you want, but what you get
You'll feel it from within as I work my way out
Such a pretty girl, but such a dirty mouth
Face down on the floor, holding you by your neck
Do you feel like a wreck?
Well that is life, kiddo
Now shut up and swallow
Shut up and swallow

Unfortunately I have to disagree with Shaysh. Even if it's obvious that this song is about domination and sex a further look into Combichrist's lyrics shows otherwise. Everything is a metaphore, a harsh one but still. It's full of anger and despair and those lyrics are highly ironic, it's not just about domination and sex, it's something like revenge, something like.. 'i spit the truth in your face, that's life kiddo, get over it.' :)
im just wondering if the where are you?. You could call it the end of the world. is from a movie. and if so which one. he sounds kind of like christian slater.. and im curious. but as far as meaning. i agree with nhaive
The sound clip is from the movie The Thirteenth Floor.

I'm pretty sure he says
Hope you get it in your throat Hope you gag and choke Your pretty little face turning blue
If you want it in your eyes as I spit in your face
The lyrics are wrong (corrections are capitalized):
"You fucking parasite Feeding off my FLESH like a leech Sucking me dry Use your head Hope you GET IT in your throat Hope you gag and choke Your PRETTY little face turning blue"
and
"You'll get nothing for free Don't try to suck it off me You always take you what you want Now I just take what is mine I'll give you EMPTYNESS You tell of life.. It's up to you to fill it with substance"
WELL, of course, this is about sex and domination in relationship to life.
