Artist: The County Medical Examiners
Album: Forensic Fugues And Medicolegal

Lyrics

Before the effluvial corpse is consumed
By gastronomic decay and suppuration
The stiffening husk is surveyed and tested
For suitability of organ donation..
Tissue typing..
Donor screening..
Biopsy testing..
Organ dealing..
Postmortem examination of cadaveric remains
For a harvesting effort deemed most humane
Splayed open cadavers where organs are obtained
Crumpled wax paper and body parts are exchanged..
Kidney transplantations..
Corneal donations..
Liver procurations..
Anatomic emancipation..
For us prosectors to peculate
According to stringent procurement laws
Mandated and regulated by the state..
Fuliginous, fulvous, and glaucously blue
Organs are retrieved and prepared for transference
Haruspicating the dehisce corpse
Divining life from death in this graveolence..
Permission is garnered from next of kin
Embrangled in anatomical waste
Taking comfort from this rebarbative task
I altruistically dissect without haste..
Forensic scientist..
Transplantation artist..
Autopsy altruist..
Organ harvest..
