Once I wanted to be the greatest
 No wind of waterfall could stall me
 And then came [bad word] of the flood
 Stars of night turned deep to dust

 Melt me down
 Into big black armour
 Leave no trace of grace
 Just in your honour
 Lower me down
 To culprit south
 Make 'em wash a space in town
 For the lead
 And the dregs of my bed
 I've been sleepin'
 Lower me down
 Pin me in
 Secure the grounds
 For the later parade

 Once I wanted to be the greatest
 Two fists of solid rock
 With brains that could explain
 Any feeling

 Lower me down
 Pin me in
 Secure the grounds
 For the lead
 And the dregs of my bed
 I've been sleepin'
 For the later parade

 Once I wanted to be the greatest
 No wind of waterfall could stall me
 And then came [bad word] of the flood
 Stars of night turned deep to dust
