jester of sorts
You stand holding your court
Over minions of Capitol Hill (Capitol Hill!)
In a bath full of blood (Like a child of the past!)
I'm alone standing still
Under God, you can fire at will

(One, two, three, four!)

And when
The devil's [bad word] (When!)
Take your life and lead you
To the flames beneath
Your headstone reads here (Here!)
Lies the dead who was
Hung by his head beneath us.
Laying in their graves,
Damnation free for all

prodigal son
Can't undo what he's done
figurehead of capital crime
With a light shining down
As you fall to your knees
To repent would be nothing but lies

(One, two, three, four!)

And when
The devil's [bad word] (When!)
Take your life and lead you
To the flames beneath
Your headstone reads here (Here!)
Lies the dead who was
Hung by his head beneath us.
Laying in their graves,
Damnation free for all

La la la... (Save me!)
La la la... (Save me!)

Dead beat
Six feet
Dead underground

An eye for an eye
Only leaves us all blind
Going once twice and there goes your life!

And when
The devil's [bad word] (When!)
Take your life and lead you
To the flames beneath
Your headstone reads here (Here!)
Lies the dead who was
Hung by his head beneath us.
Laying in their graves,
Damnation free for all
