about

Following the defeat of the Despensers, Sir Hugh le Despenser the Younger is tried and found guilty of treason. Word on the streets is that he will die a traitor’s death before the people with incredible pain and suffering. The peasant population of King Edward II’s reign are no strangers to pain and suffering…cut-throats and whores breed like animals in the alleyways and in turn raised children with even more refined skills in the arts of swindling and debauchery. A rare comfort, albeit twisted and demented, is the public spectacle of corporal punishment and execution. Death is truly the great equalizer, and for the starving beggar to witness the violent barbaric end of a wicked nobleman is a carefully planned spectacle offering both liberation and pacification.

lyrics

We never thought we would live like this
But hunger stupefies
Feed me darling, it’s a thrill
Fill me up deep inside

Because even though as I pray,
I could not help myself
From tearing you apart
Until I was satisfied

Down in the pit where I was born
I learned a lesson from my dad
To survive you must first learn this
Hunger drives a clean soul mad

Hear my brothers
Hear my sisters
Cry out against what I’ve done
I may have been the runt of the litter
But now baby I am the one

Like Dogs...
I mangy bitch without a home
Like Dogs...
Fighting for the meat on the bone
Starved and thrown in the ring
Like Dogs...
Fight or die!

Down in the hole where I grew up
I learned a lesson from my mom
To survive you must remember this
Your rage son, it’s a bomb

Hear my brothers
Hear my sisters
Cry out against what I’ve done
I may have been the runt of the litter
But now baby I am the one

Like Dogs...
I mangy bitch without a home
Like Dogs...
Fighting for the meat on the bone
Starved and thrown in the ring
Like Dogs...
Fight or die!
