Jesus' Requiem
William J. Hall - February 27, 2000

  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:
  29 Jesus' Requiem
  30 Sing the children:
  31 Jesus' Requiem
  32 Sing the children:
  33 Jesus' Requiem
  34 Sing it -
 
  35 Sing the children:
  36 Jesus' Requiem
  37 Sing the children:
  38 Jesus' Requiem
  39 Sing the children:
  40 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'
