Virchow's method is the heart of prosector life Pen-gripped scalpels and palm-gripped section knives 19th century dissection methods still relevant today Systematic journeys of corpses rudely flayed Pathological anatomy married with forensics Notating viscera in situ: a concept then eccentric Opening carcasses in a highly ordered Virchow Guide my hand Removing jellied organs from crumbling husks of waste Putrefaction inspires haste as tissues whisk to paste Following the method that Virchow gave to us Before the dead is laid to rest, we mire through the sickening pus Tearing open carcasses, a frenzied labored job I weigh the heart then section liver It comes away with repugnant wet pop [Solo: heroic tripe dimidiation and disassembly] Dissecting entire organ systems at once A chain of glistening innards to expertly trounce Thoracic chamber-a cave of bony hazards Abdominal system-decrepit, stinking cupboard Tearing my gloves on ragged costal arches I manhandle the kidneys and they split with tiny notches I drop my bread knife in the gassy, reeking cess Suction from the putrefaction yanks my glove into the mess Letras de cancionesSplit the trunk Right down its length Rudolph Virchow Give me strength Revolting belching stiffs reduced to collapsed slab Disassembled, emptied out, and stuffed in biohazard bags Rudolph Virchow Lives in these halls The morgue, his home His disciples-all We carve and hack Seeking death We steadfast priests Of The Last Breath Done my time In ME school The chow's a joke The work is cruel My trade is sick But I'm compelled Rudolph Virchow Taught me well From Letras Mania
