I'm the thirty second son Born to him in seconds time Born to him the still young to him with two eyebrows on And all I was wearing I woke up staring at the world
My mom had around the graves of queens But not at all a sex She liked to her body clean, clean Thought the world to be obscene But she to her chamber And we remain strangers

And I Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus still a goddamn number Thirty-two's still counts, gonna it count make it count, gonna oh oh
