crimp, you were closer but still a little off on the lyrics. whoever posted this first was WAY off.
fifi: generally, people don't write songs about abortion. what was the last song you heard about, say, gay marriage? I didn't think so.
think about this song in the context of De-Loused, of which it was originally a part but cut from the released version. abortion is a theme Omar and Cedric try to parallel in their lyrics about Cerpin Taxt's world. "fetal camps" likely refers to Cerpin's "real world," which was viewed by the Metacarpi as a breeding ground, a sort of stasis for the unneeded souls. "No one's getting out of the fetal camps alive" foreshadows Cerpin's suicide.
Your main passage supporting abortion clearly refers to the phixia army fighting clavietika. the storybook devotes nearly a page to the functions of the phixia army, and they functioned very much as a team. they ultimately destroyed clavietika via some sort of chemical grenage [i believe] turning her back into Cerpin Taxt, who was smaller than clavietika, thus the phixias emaciated their queen.
CORRECT lyrics to this song can be found at TMV's quasi-official fan site, as well as lyrics for all TMV songs. Also you should read the stunning 23-page storybook relating the story of Cerpin Taxt, the story behind the album.
