lyrics

They kept an eye when I arrived
I was a boy, for now - a man

I won't tell what happened to remittance
All I know is I'm surrounded by sophists
I won't tell what happened to remittance
All I know is I'm surrounded by sophists

I can't say if you're worth your repentance
All I know is I'm serving her sentence
I can't say if I'm worth your repentance
All I know is I'm serving her sentence

Dead wife was tricked
A righteous man
Regresses to a broken kid

I won't tell what happened to remittance
All I know is I'm surrounded by sophists
I won't tell what happened to remittance
All I know is I'm surrounded by sophists

I can't say if you're worth your repentance
All I know is I'm serving her sentence
I can't say if I'm worth your repentance
All I know is I'm serving her sentence

I'm thinking how I may
Approach her affably
When I climb out of Hades/Hell
And into Galilee

How do you figure?
How do you think
If you don't even know
If you're awake?

How do you figure?
How do you think
If you don't even know
If you're awake?

For they are legion and they're many
But there's many more with foreheads
Bound to bury in the dust
So I built a fence at sunrise
To keep the dogs from eating my new berries
To my surprise

When the harvest came to pass
The lonesome comely berry was a poison
Now who will feed my chickens?
Who's to fight the Romans
Levied in the mustards?
Tributes for the pastures
I shall write to Caesar
Topple down the empire
But today I'm staying home
