lyrics

If I die before you meet me
Lead my body to its grave
When I lay aside that stone
Won't be the man I was known to be

Hey I sang the whole day long for nothing
Hey tomorrow is sorrow
Hey I sang the whole day long
But I never said a word

My good friends have slept before the serpent
I myself don't even rise
My sweet love is 'neath the window
Sun soaked, blood stained thighs

Hey I sang the whole day long
Hey for nothing
Hey I sang the whole day long for nothing
And pissed into the wind

I spoke the words of the master
To an old, dead drum
