I don't care if it takes some time
I'm gonna make it right
I'm gonna make it right

Turn your head 360 degrees
Bite the hand that feeds
I don't care if it tastes like poison
Rip the legs from the thighs
Feed the prison, save the eyes

I don't care if it tastes like poison
I'm going to feed the prison, feed the prison
Color in with lakes of red
Pile of bones for my bed
I'm gonna take some time
I'm gonna take some time

Hang your sides to cure it right
Feed the prison, save the eyes
Not a tear will be shed
The only color is red, red

I don't care if it takes some time
I'm gonna make it right
I'm gonna make it right

Turn your head 360 degrees
Bite the hand that feeds
I don't care if it tastes like poison
Rip the legs from the thighs
Feed the prison, save the eyes

Not a tear will be shed
The only color is red, red

I don't care if it tastes like poison
I'm gonna feed the prison, feed the prison
I'm gonna feed

One of the biggest rock bands out of Seattle, Soundgarden was formed in 1984 by singer and rhythm guitarist Chris Cornell, lead guitarist Kim Thayil, and bassist Hiro Yamamoto. Matt Cameron became the band’s full-time drummer in 1986, while bassist Ben Shepherd became a permanent replacement for Yamamoto in 1990. While one of the creators of the Grunge alternative rock and the first to sign to a major label, they only rose to stardom once the genre was popularized by Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains in the early 90s. After achieving great success with 1994’s Superunknown, the band decided to call it quits three years later due to internal squabbles. Eventually they reunited in 2010, releasing new album King Animal two years later. Frontman Chris Cornell committed suicide in a Detroit hotel room on May 17, 2017. He was 52 years old.
