Meat Lyrics
You taste what you want from me
you taste all of the gristle
from the bones I need
To stand up to you
To live up to fools
It's too troubling
Can't take what you like from me
Cant take all of the vision
That your money thieves
Don't be capeless now
Just a pretty babe
A cool covering
You can't hide. no-
You can't hide the way you feel
(your just) dead inside this meat
that you're smothering
you can't run. no-
you just stuble crash and cry
(without) asking questions why
it's all crumbling
Dark eyes beauties never cheap
dark hair, dark lips maybe
that i want to cheat
(see my) sorry face
(in this) love that fails
It's all good for me
slick baby that ain't worrying
slick rage, strong is the ego
that i want to test
in your head of lies
cut me down to size
it's all credible
you can't hide. no-
you can't hide the way you feel
(your just) dead inside this meat
that you're smothering
you can't run. no-
you just stumble crash and cry
(without) asking questions why
pure fear that you're falling for
these tears, thick in the sadness
that was running before
welling up in dread
for a softer bed
i'm not worrying
you're so sane, all the lines you shed
so cool so good the picture
for those crazy hoods got this gun for keeps
stick it in this meat i'm not hurrying
you taste all of the gristle
from the bones I need
To stand up to you
To live up to fools
It's too troubling
Cant take all of the vision
That your money thieves
Don't be capeless now
Just a pretty babe
A cool covering
You can't hide the way you feel
(your just) dead inside this meat
that you're smothering
you just stuble crash and cry
(without) asking questions why
it's all crumbling
dark hair, dark lips maybe
that i want to cheat
(see my) sorry face
(in this) love that fails
It's all good for me
slick rage, strong is the ego
that i want to test
in your head of lies
cut me down to size
it's all credible
you can't hide the way you feel
(your just) dead inside this meat
that you're smothering
you just stumble crash and cry
(without) asking questions why
pure fear that you're falling for
these tears, thick in the sadness
that was running before
welling up in dread
for a softer bed
i'm not worrying
so cool so good the picture
for those crazy hoods got this gun for keeps
stick it in this meat i'm not hurrying

Wow. This song is just epic. Iommi owns it with his monster riffing, as he always does. I'd never heard of Skin before, but she is powerful on this song. To me it seems to be about how women are treated like pieces of meat in today's society. Men are so shallow, they only pick the best cuts of meat (the prettiest girls) and then toss them away and find another ones they aren't as good any more many years down the road. And I am a guy, for the record.
