[00:17.589]I began to warm and chill
[00:21.809]To objects and their fields
[00:25.409]A ragged cup a twisted mop
[00:29.448]The face of Jesus in my soup
[00:33.458]Those sinister dinner meals
[00:37.997]The meal trolley's wicked wheels
[00:41.987]A hooked bone rising from my food
[00:45.847]All things either good or ungood
[00:49.437]And the mercy seat is waiting
[00:53.326]And I think my head is burning
[00:57.55]And in a way I'm yearning
[00:59.284]To be done with all this measuring of truth
[01:05.132]An eye for an eye
[01:06.681]A tooth for a tooth
[01:08.750]And anyway I told the truth
[01:13.429]And I'm not afraid to die
[01:32.691]Interpret signs and catalogue
[01:36.971]A blackened tooth a scarlet fog
[01:40.701]The walls are bad black bottom kind
[01:44.670]They are sick breath at my hind
[01:48.588]I hear stories from the chamber
[01:52.36]How Christ was born into a manger
[01:55.816]And like some ragged stranger
[01:58.705]Died upon the cross
[02:01.615]And might I say it seems so fitting in its way
[02:06.973]He was a carpenter by trade
[02:11.782]Or at least that's what I'm told
[02:22.871]Like my good hand I tatooed EVIL across
[02:27.560]It's brother's fist
[02:30.660]That filthy five
[02:32.390]They did nothing to challenge or resist
[02:38.440]In Heaven His throne is made of gold
[02:41.999]The ark of his Testament is stowed
[02:45.749]A throne from which I'm told
[02:48.457]All history does unfold
[02:51.327]Down here it's made of wood and wire
[02:55.334]And my body is on fire
[03:01.423]And God is never far away
[03:05.240]My kill-hand is called EVIL
[03:09.150]Wears a wedding band that's GOOD
[03:12.740]This a long suffering shackle
[03:16.970]Collaring all that rebel blood
[03:20.490]And the mercy seat is burning
[03:24.28]And I think my head is glowing
[03:27.958]And in a way I'm hoping
[03:30.176]To be done with all this weighing up of truth
[03:35.846]An eye for an eye
[03:37.675]And a tooth for a tooth
[03:39.595]And I've got nothing left to lose
[03:43.244]And I'm not afraid to die
[03:46.664]And the mercy seat is burning
[03:50.223]And I think my head is glowing
[03:53.992]And in a way I'm hoping
[03:56.671]To be done with all this twisted of the truth
[04:01.691]An eye for an eye
[04:03.390]And a tooth for a tooth
[04:05.419]And I've got nothing left to lose
[04:08.879]And I'm not afraid to die
[04:12.298]And the mercy seat is smoking
[04:15.998]And I think my head is boiling
[04:19.788]And in a way I'm spoiling
[04:21.676]All the fun with all this truth and consequence
[04:27.495]An eye for an eye
[04:29.325]And a truth for a truth
[04:31.755]And anyway I told the truth
[04:35.704]But I'm afraid I told a lie
