Lyrics:
you crazy babe bathsheba, i wantcha
you're suffocating you need, a good shed
i'm tired of living, shebe, so gimme
dead

we're apin', rapin', tapin' catharsis
you get torn down and i get erected
my blood is working but my, my heart is
dead

hey, whaddyah know?
you're lovely tan belly
is starting to grow

uriah hit the crapper, the crapper
uriah hit the crapper, the crapper
uriah hit the crapper, the crapper
dead

This song is about a Bible story called “David and Bathsheba”. It’s found in
II Samuel, chapter 11 (in the Old Testament). If you have a Bible sitting 
around, pick it up and read it. You will understand what he is talking about 
in this song once you do. Or you could just read it at this URL that I have
