Lyrics:
Born in sheeps blood plain and simple Washed out of my mothers temple All around I heard them laughing As father sheep had stood there calving Black they were with white eyes gleaming Right in leaven life was seeming Brittle wind blew snow upon me I got blanketed all white and frosty In my time I grew and killed them Or out of memory I willed them And willed in a greater history Out of massacre and mystery Was no longer wealthy, wholly Nor anything I could grasp fully Someone rush to re-inject me Gods of gods wont you protect me? Fixed my face and marching onward Marching running ever forward Buildings were a bloody vessel Edging me below the trestle There in coal and whitened gravel I built a shield of wooden baffle Inside of which I raised a fire So I could tonight retire Everyone will tell you it's evil to be A free-thinking pecker like bonny old me But I'll flex my armies and blow out my gut And prove I'll be loved by any old s*** Look here in my wallet, it's loaded and true And now we can leave here And go and find you
