lyrics

It's like an old woman's mixture of clay and oil
It's like a gallon of milk that is about to spoil
Maybe a tire screeching against the pavement
A pool of sweet blood on wet cement

It's like a brand new car that has already rust
As if the metal is rotten, the wood turned to dust
Could be tobacco dipped in gasoline about to combust

I can't see it
But I can smell it
I don't know where it comes from
I don't know what it is
But I know that it makes me sick

It's like a bowl of cream that has sat for hours
It's like a pile of waste that is growing flowers
It is in between bitter, sweet, and sour
I cannot taste it, or hear it, or feel it
And I can't see it

But I can smell it
I don't know where it comes from
I don't know what it is
But I know that it makes me sick

It's like a house they abandoned in the pouring rain
It's like a beautiful carpet with a red wine stain
I don't know how to say it, I just can't explain
Don't ask me what it looks like, I've told you time and time again
That I can see it!

But I can smell it
I don't know where it comes from
I don't know what it is
But I know that it makes me sick

I can't see it
But I can sense it...
I don't know why it's come
I don't know when it goes
But this horrible feeling inside of me grows
From the back of my brain to the tip of my nose...
Oh...
And the worst thing
Is that I'm the only one towards whom it blows
