Parody Written by:

The Lyrics

scavengers due...fill their bellies
scavengers seen
if something stinks...really smelly
they think that's keen

how do they know...when there's killing
scent tells them so
when life departs...its so thrilling
that's when they go

they clue their friends...all are milling
they get to work
and in they plow...willy nilly
they go berserk

all through the day...bellies filling
straight on to morn
when something dies...it gets nibbled
while its still warm

scavengers chew...blood is spilling
scavengers seize
they bare their teeth...really cruelly
with meat between

that's how it goes...isn't pretty
these guys are pros
when they take part...its a frenzy
one would suppose

The combination of sweet OS and graphic subject matter worked wonderfully well, Al. I got a buzz(ard) out of this one. 555
