ebenlo · The Righteous And The Wicked

LYRICS:

Where has the time gone

I’m back on my bed

My body aches

As meds flow to my head

I’m in a daze

The stillness of soft light

The highway howls

It’s approaching midnight

 

The moon is high

As the busters fight

The hand of the gun

Who will do it right

In all their snatching

It’s me who’s catching

The tears that fall

As I ponder it all

 

The righteous and the wicked

What do you say

I see it on the news

Every single day

Somebody cursed killed somebody blessed

You can be sure they won’t pass the test

Spare the rod and spoil the child

Don’t let them strive alone

Don’t let them run wild

 

The righteous and the wicked

Is all I see

Shut your mouth

When you’re talking to me

You can be sure that I’m fed up

I’ll need another moment

drinking blood from a cup

 

That’s right I said it

This time it’s for real

But why do you flee

Why do you kill

There’s a price you’ll pay

Be sure of that

Lie cheat and steal

Carry your gat

Cover your face

It’s time to get paid

You won’t get away

On the last day

 

The righteous and the wicked

What do you say

I see it on the news

Every single day

Somebody cursed killed somebody blessed

You can be sure they won’t pass the test

Spare the rod and spoil the child

Don’t let them strive alone

Don’t let them run wild

 

You shall beat him with the rod

And deliver his soul from Hell
