     Gm
I'm starvin', darlin'
 F
Let me put my lips to something
C7                               D#
Let me wrap my teeth around the world
       Gm
Start carvin', darlin'
   F
I wanna smell the dinner cooking
   C7                            D#
I wanna feel the edges start to burn

       D#       C7
Honey, I wanna race you to the table
Gm                    F
If you hesitate, the gettin' is gone
         D#             C7
I won't lie if there's something to be gained
         Gm                   F
There's money to be made, whatever's still to come

Chorus:
Gm
Get some
                              F
Pull up the ladder when the flood comes
                             C7
Throw enough rope until the legs have swung
                             D#
Seven new ways that you can eat your young
         Gm
Come and get some
                             F
Skinning the children for a war drum
                                   C7
Putting food on the table selling bombs and guns
                            D#
It's quicker and easier to eat your young

You can't buy this fineness
Let me see the heat get to you
Let me watch the dressing start to peel
It's a kindness, highness
Crumbs enough for everyone
Old and young are welcome to the meal

Honey, I'm makin' sure the table's made
We can celebrate the good that we've done
I won't lie if there's somethin' still to take
There is ground to break, whatever's still to come
