The crawlers cover the floor In the red ochre corridor For my second sight of people They've more lifeblood than before They're moving in time To a heavy wooden door Where the needle's eye is winking Closing on the poor The carpet crawlers heed their callers We've gotta get in to get out We've gotta get in to get out We've gotta get in to get out There's only one direction In the faces that I see And it's upward to the ceiling Where the chamber's said to be Like a forest fight for sunlight That takes root in every tree They are pulled up by the magnet Still believing they're free The carpet crawlers heed their callers We've gotta get in to get out We've gotta get in to get out We've gotta get in to get out Mild-mannered supermen Are held in kryptonite And the wise and foolish virgins just giggle With their bodies glowing bright Through the door a harvest feast Is lit by candlelight It's the bottom of a staircase It spirals out of sight The carpet crawlers heed their callers We've gotta get in to get out We've gotta get in to get out We've gotta get in to get out The porcelain mannequin With shattered skin fears attack And the eager pack lift up its pitchers They carry all they lack The liquid has congealed It has seeped out through the crack And the tickler takes his stickleback... The carpet crawlers heed their callers We've gotta get in to get out We've gotta get in to get out We've gotta get in to get out We've gotta get in to get out... The carpet crawlers heed their callers We've gotta get in to get out We've gotta get in to get out We've gotta get in to get out
