Cadaver Sniffing Dog - The Mountain Goats

Hustle up the spiral stairs

See if anyone’s left up there

Teams on the scene from several stations

Everybody adjust your expectations

Stray clumps of hair and blood and brain

Fragments of bone in the drain

Rookies trying to keep the airway clear

But the damage is too severe

Bring in the cadaver sniffing dog

Bring in the cadaver sniffing dog

Bring in the cadaver (Bring in the cadaver)

Sniffing dog

Bring in the cadaver (Bring in the cadaver)

Sniffing dog

Army crawlers down ash-wet floor

Ready for war

Veterans on their hands and knees

Nobody’s ready for days like these

Wait 'til you come up on the smoking wreck

And even then, you check

Radio home, all clean

If there were any survivors they’ve fled the scene

Bring in the cadaver sniffing dog

Bring in the cadaver sniffing dog

Bring in the cadaver (Bring in the cadaver)

Sniffing dog

Bring in the cadaver (Bring in the cadaver)
