So this was supposed to be a top 10 list, but after scouring AZLyrics, songlyrics.com, and genius.com we have only been able to come up with one single song that references placenta falling to the floor. So, without further ado, here is the top 1 song that references the placenta tumbling toward the ground.
1. Live – Lightning Crashes
We were actually surprised to find several songs that name-drop “placenta” but no song graphically illustrates the pain of childbirth quite like Lightning Crashes. We think that’s what it’s about anyway. We’re certain it has something to do with the circle of life and death but why mention the placenta at all otherwise?
Live has also been in the headlines lately as it seems they are going through a tumultuous time in their history, so it feels like an opportune time to remind people that they existed and that this song made it to number one on the US Mainstream Rock Billboard chart. People in 1994 could not get enough of this absolutely disgusting and depressing song.
Now, we don’t want people to think that this is some sort of anti-placenta propaganda. Our issue is with the ambiguous usage of the word in conjunction with the idea that it just falls to the floor during childbirth. Hell, we’re not even judging those who eat it! We do not, however, condone the act of eating placenta that has been dropped on a dirty hospital floor.
There you have it, a comprehensive list of all songs mentioning placenta falling to the floor, ranked in order for your sick enjoyment.
