Palm Tree Corpse repeats a grotesque refrain that seems to invalidate itself: aligning with the title of the song, the narrator desires to penetrate the corpse of someone he has just murdered, but it has ‘already been done’.
If I could
I would take a tree branch
And ram it inside you
But it's already been done
If I could
I would take a tree branch
And ram it inside you
But it's already been done
If I could
I would take a tree branch
And ram it inside you
Splitting open
Your heart of palm
But it's already been done
From spoiled plantain
Crawls out
Tarantella
