[verse 1]
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

[chorus 1]
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

[verse 2]
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

[chorus 2]
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

[bridge]
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

[outro]
Slow, slow, slow, slow
Slow, slow, slow, slow
Slow, slow, slow, slow
Slow, slow, slow, slow
Slow
Slow
Slow
