Slow, don't take it slow
When you put on that hat,
That black velvet cap.
Well, this is that
Long due occasion
You can wear it at,
Don't send this invite back.
Slow, don't kill me slow,
Don't kill me slow,
No, never, never.
No, don't kill me slow,
No, never, never.
Kill me quick,
Kill me quicker if you can,
I cannot take it slow,
Don't kill me slow.
When you showed your executioner's cap to me,
You put it on for me,
Said that I would see
You'd kill whatever
Sapped your love from me.
So put it on for me,
Put it on again, oh!
Slow, don't kill me slow,
No, never, never.
No, don't kill me slow,
No, never, never.
Kill me quick,
Kill me quicker if you can,
I cannot take it slow,
Don't kill me–
Jump cut back to high-res time lapse,
Seasons shift or pass,
Maybe leaves then snow into still-life ripens,
Stop motion perishing,
Feast of larvae explode
Blue dust shadow of mould.
Slow, slow, slow, slow,
Slow, slow, slow, slow,
Slow, slow, slow, slow,
Slow, slow, slow, slow,
Slow,
Slow,
Slow.
