Question
plasmid
I've got a hole straight through my head
But haven't been slaughtered, so don't be misled
For I'll be nimble, I'll be quick
Cross over the ridges to hang with my click
Don't tell me it would be uncool
Perhaps you've forgotten to follow the rule
Or squeezed the trigger, you control
Whether you're hunted by cruising patrols
So cross your heart don't hope to die
When carnage ensues you'd better not fly
Just hold your ground, I'll cut no slack
You shouldn't deplore me for holding you back
And once you've lost the will to roam
With reeling abandon I'll slither back home
