Welcome to Peter Labs We've been working on a few things Re-combinations of some feral DNA We've got fetuses suspended in liquid Everything's ready to go Welcome to Peter Labs

Terrible time, terrible time, you know we had a terrible time Coming down here. Hide out light out hide-away Hurry, scurry, get away Leave not a, leave not a trace Leave well enough alone Oh! All alone now! Terrible time, terrible time, coming down here Terrible time, terrible time, you know we had a terrible time Coming down here.

Bears, bears, bears. Eagles! Eagles! Bears, bears with eagle arms They drop in the night They’re terribly frightening Turn round and you’ll see them They’re already on you Out in the night They’re terribly frightening They drop from the sky They’re already on you Out in the night They drop when they’re ripe They drop from the skies It’s terribly, terribly scary Oh now they’ve got you You’re caught in their graspers They’ve fastened their raspers You’ll never, no never, go home again Bears, bears with eagle arms

Hold me, Press me to your hips. I need to feel you all around me. Break, blowe, burne and make me new Make me something you can be proud of Unless you enthrall me I can never be free So cage me like an animal Cage me like a wild beast Take my freedom from me Like a wild animal Cage me, animal. Cage me like an animal Take my body, Take my will Take it from me, Say you will

Rain brings the worms Brings them to the surface, brings them to the sky Show their faces Show you what they've got Show them what you've got Fear not The birds will have their fill

Good night all Good night lemurs Good night llamas Good night mice Good night grumblers Good night bears Good night emus Good night worms

about

Welcome to my mad menagerie of assorted animals, some tamed from the wild, others concocted in this very laboratory. Why? Music, of course. These animals were designed and raised to perform the most beautiful music. Hear the indomitable scurrying of the mouse, the heart-arresting war cry of the emu, the beautiful sigh of the worm, and of course the howl of the most terrifying and dangerous of all the beasts: the bear with eagle arms. Please, come in, sit down, and welcome to Peter Labs.
