lyrics

Sharpen my spade
It’s how I get paid
I dig in the dirt
No one gets hurt
Covered in mud
Caked in dried blood
Though the work is grotesque
I don’t mind I confess

Six feet down
In the cold ground
My quarry I seek
Before it starts to reek
Under moonlight
I toil all night
Though the work is grotesque
I don’t mind I confess

I deal in the grotesque, collect my wage for a grisly job well done
The dirt beneath my nails a testament to my life’s work
I deal in death, my wage is paid by a mad man
The stench on my clothes, the badge I wear with pride
