22. Nighttime Funeral |
LyricsNIGHTTIME FUNERALHe called himself the prophet He spoke to God he said He ruled for 30 years Decided who was wed 7 wives he called his own He was the village head He claimed a sacred plan At this shanty town homestead CHORUS Nighttime Funeral Burial In The Dark Such A Strange Event In God's Forsaken Park Hear The Brethren Singing Like Hyenas As They Bark Nighttime Funeral Burial In The Dark Not all the flock believed Some did not support And at his elder age His death spilled no report But fowl play was at hand A strangling did take place And now the prophet's spot A killer does embrace (repeat chorus) BRIDGE A casket for Polygamy The law brings such a fright That's why secret internment Takes place just at Midnight (repeat chorus) |
