"Arecibo Message" lyrics

My earthly womb in your monolith
You've got it sewn, bunching at my hips

I ventured to your city
To meet you at your throne
But I'm stuck inside your
Vestibule with no way to atone
I gnashed my vexing jowl at the
Suffragette crown
Temple steps above my cringe
Temple steps beneath my scowl
And what's the use of pleading thirst?
I see you drinking from my cup

You're not the flesh I was after
So I try scraping off the blight
Can't get no passage to my terminus
When I'm dying every night
So don't perspire with excitement
In fact don't perspire at all
The jewel of my retribution makes empires rise and fall

My earthly womb in your monolith

How could you defy these
Precious little ones?
The very ones that showed you love
I know I know I know you've
Got that filament
So how could you defy these
Precious little ones?

Something's got a hold on me
About to breach the seal

You're not the flesh I was after
So I try scraping off the blight
Can't get no passage to my terminus
When I'm dying every night
So don't perspire with excitement
In fact don't perspire at all
If the drones become enlightened you'll have
Such a noble swarm
You know that you'll have
Such a noble swarm
