about

This had been an abandoned earlier attempt at something, and was then mislabeled based upon the first line of the song -- a first line that's been dropped from this version.

This vocals are still sourced from that original improvised version, though things have been cut slightly so as to sharpen it up.

lyrics

All you need to do is bring your knives!
And don't be afraid to cut!
Slice them open! Open them up!
They don't do it much anymore, but you see.

We can change people KNIFE-ly!
We can slice and make them great!
Rearrange even their fate!
Cull the bad parts out of ourselves!

Slice them easily like butter.
Slice them like honey and a knife!
You don't even really slice that honey,
it mostly sticks to the knife!

Like certain bits of deep insides,
as you rearrange them with your knives.
Sometimes they don't want to come out,
and we need to bring the suction about.

Sucking up all of that bile
that spilled inside, spilled inside!
How much bile do you have
swimming about your lovely insides?

We can clean it up!
If you have a whole in your gut!
We will just open up and look around!
Fixing things so that everything is round!

Lovely round bits!
Lovely round gears!
Lovely round doo-dads!
What's this here?

So much to see!
So much to explore as we look deep inside.
Changing things and learning things
and exploring deep inside.

Deep inside.
Inside.

Mr. Beany's Bitty Band

We're a one-person band fronted by a human who self-describes as a mad artist. We invented the "crapcapella" genre, and remain a proponent, though we now support the term "folk acapella" as well. We love improvised music as well as sheet music.
