 Track 69, (Cries Of The Carrots/This Is Necessary/
Phone Call)
..And the Angel Of The Lord came unto me,
snatching me up from my place of
slumber. And took me on high, and higher still,
until we moved through the
spaces 'betwixt the air itself. And he brought me
unto a vast farmland of our
own midwest. And as we decended, cries of
impending doom rose from the soil.
One thousand, 'nay, a million voices, full of
fear. And terror posessed me
then. And I begged, "Angel Of The Lord, what are
these totured screams?" and
the Angel said unto me, "These are the Cries Of
The Carrots. The Cries Of The
Carrots, Y'see Reverend Maynard, tomorrow is
Harvest Day, and to them, it is
The Holocaust."
..And I sprang from my slumber, drenched in
sweat, like the tears of a
million terrified brothers. And, Lord, Hear me
now, I have seen the light,
They have a conciousness, They have a life, They
have a soul. Damn You! Let
the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers!
Can I get an "Amen?"
(collective "AMEN!")
Can I get a Hallelujah?
(collective "HALLELUJAH!")
Thank you, Jesus!
This. Is. Necessary.
This. Is. Necessary.
Life. Feeds on life.
Feeds on life.
Feeds on life.
Feeds on This. Is. Necessary.

(cricket sounds until 69 13.51, then:)
It was daylight when you woke up in Your ditch.
You looked up at Your sky.
That, that made Blue be your color. You had your
knife ther with you, too.
When you stood up, there was goo all over your
clothes. Your hands were
sticky. You wiped them on Your grass. So now your
color was Green. Oh, Lord,
why did everything have to keep changing like
this? You were already getting
nervous again. Your head hurt and it rang when
you stood up. Your head was
almost empty. It alwasys hurt you when you woke
up like this. You crawled up
out of Your ditch onto Your gravel road. You
began to walk, waiting for your
mind to come back to you. You could see the car
parked far down the road, and
you walked toward it. "If God is our father," you
thought, "Then Satan must be
our cousin. Why didn't anyone else understand
these important things?" When
you got to Your car, you tried all the ddors.
They were locked. It was a Red
car and it was new. There was an expensive
leather camera case laying on the
seat. Out across Your field, you could see two
tiny people walking by Your
woods. You began to walk towards them. Now Red
was your color, and of course,
the little people out there were Yours, too.
