Every man a crawling kingsnake
Every girl a half a heartbreak Every woman sold into shame To any son without a name |

Are your arms too weak to lift?
Another shovel on the graveyard shift Here comes the flood if you catch my drift Where the things that they promised are not a gift |

I felt a sliver of glass
Saw a cross in splinters I felt the truce of spring Dig me out of the trench of winter |

So count your blessings when they ask permission
To govern with money and superstition They tell you it's all for your own protection 'Til you fear your own reflection But the times are passing from illumination Like bodies falling from a constellation An uncivil war divides the nation So erase the tape on that final ape running down creation Running down creation |
