Salt On A Slug Lyrics

I poured salt on a large slug.
I watched how the slug writhed and squirmed.
It tried to escape me and my burning salt.
The slug made no sound.
But I'm sure if I were turned inside out and dipped in
salt, I would scream.
I remember how the slug glistened and resperated...
Until I put the salt on it.
And how it tried to get away secreting a yellowish green
mucus
In great quantities that bubbled slightly.
My fascination turned to revoltion as the slug writhed
and tossed from side to side Black Flag - Salt On A Slug - http://motolyrics.com/black-flag/salt-on-a-slug-lyrics.html
Secreting even more yellow green mucus to try and beat
the salt.
It was a losing battle for the slug.
'Cause when it had succeeded in rubbing some of the salt
off with great effort
I would simply turn the salt shaker on the slug again and
start over.
Eventually I got bored and left the slug still writhing
in vain
Trying to get free of the salt that eventually sucked the
slug dry.
Later I imagined that my whole body was a tongue and I
was dipped in salt...
