david bottoms - shooting rats at the bibb county dump lyrics

Loading...

loaded on beer and whiskey, we ride
to the dump in carloads
to turn our headlights across the wasted field
freeze the startled eyes of rats

shot in the head, they jump only once, lie still
like dead beer cans
shot in the gut or rump, they writhe and try to burrow
into garbage, hide in old truck tires
rusty oil drums, cardboard boxes scattered across the mounds
or else drag themselves on forelegs across our beams of light
toward the darkness at the edge of the dump

it’s the light they believe k!lls
we drink and load again, let them crawl
for all they’re worth into the darkness we’re headed for
