God Bless Your Black Heart
Lyrics: Track 07

I’ll come back from the way but everything I touch seems to break
And I won’t be the same man. I won’t be the same and you knew
And I was somewhat tickled by your gauge of your ticker tape parade
Now you know and you know that I know
We could dance all night here on their graves
God bless our black souls
Cause the serpent still sleeps
Cause the serpent still eats
The black guard is still some integral part of the ideas we keep
And there was no desperate ache or pain
As I sent my little babe to the drawer
After all, after all, we can’t all join hands and sing ‘Hallelujah!’
When there’s work to be done
Bring ‘em back
But don’t stop now, you’re still ahead
Don’t get caught in pursuits like the rest
Don’t get smart know we need it. You knew
Back long before this twisted soul
I’ll be something you’d rather not know
I’d be something that stings to believe

It won’t stop the war
But don’t stop now, you’re still ahead
Don’t get caught in conceits like your dad
Don’t get smart now. You need it. You knew
Back long before this twisted soul
I’ll be something you’d rather not know
I’d be something that stings to believe
Not me! As I kick and claw home in box
Or find a place, job to claim, eat my heart
Hope I choke, hope I stroke, catch the flu
In your arm, the chair, the family heirloom
When we laugh, we’ll be laughing at you!
When you circle your draining fish bowl
Sell your house, sell your car, sell your soul
Spend your how life just praying to spend
Your life
