Jesus' Requiem |
||
1 | It's Friday night | |
2 | Trouble will follow | |
3 | And they're walking by | |
4 | Where the ending begins | |
5 | And the bullets fly | |
6 | Fly from the shadow | |
7 |
Jesus' requiem |
|
8 | There's no disguise | |
9 | For the colors he's wearing | |
10 | On the street he lies | |
11 | Nobody wins | |
12 | And the siren cries | |
13 | They're coming to get him | |
14 |
Jesus' requiem |
|
15 | Sing the children: | |
16 | Jesus' Requiem | |
17 | Sing the children: | |
18 | Jesus' Requiem | |
19 | Sing the children: | |
20 |
Jesus' Requiem |
|
21 | They take their time | |
22 | No need to hurry | |
23 | They've seen this kind | |
24 | Time and again | |
25 | And the women whine | |
26 | Testify to the story | |
27 |
Jesus' requiem. |
|
28 | Sing the children: | |

Jesus' Requiem |
|
41 | And this last ride | |
42 | He knows he ain't dreamin' | |
43 | He's got his pride | |
44 | And his short life has been | |
45 | Like the night is wide | |
46 |
And the siren still screamin' |
