X MARKS THE SPOT Lyrics Henry Biggs yes, he's a sweet priest of peace, our kindred, so blest a man you can trust, one of us, the gentlest holy so soulfully devoted to the lord God selfless and guiltless, built to witness with reverent awe and through adversity to suffer for him happily Because he knows that God the father will prevail yes he will! Almighty God the eternal colonel will smote the infernal Yes Wenceslas come just spread your love to humanity because you see how Grace has no race no place in His place you are that safe haven, the one person who will save 'em when the world goes crazy you will protect every one of 'em but tell me good Wenceslas you have a crazed look in your eye that's got me wondering. . . And then the sky went black -- and his heart went cold. . . CHORUS X marks the spot, where you raped that little girl X marks the spot, where you stabbed and strangled her X marks the spot, where you split her little skull X marks the spot, where you killed, you killed X marks the spot, where you swore you'd keep 'em safe X marks the spot, where you had them all betrayed X marks the spot, where they were slaughtered as they prayed X marks the spot, where you killed, you killed, you killed, you killed… then the Tutsis screamed to the world take pity but the world said let's talk it over in committee we'll meet in four weeks to begin debating the issue and if we can all agree they're executing you after another week or two we will do our best to get a judgment passed against those Hutus but some say you just like to endlessly kill each other it's that same old racial hatred that makes you almost want to suffer as official policy dictates that we observe and not too hastily commit We'll just read your obits CHORUS and so you kept on you stabbed and slaughtered offed your next door neighbors, slaughtered sons and daughters no mass homicide the sickest piece of the scene you murdered one by one, didn't need guns or gasoline With shanks, shivs, clubs, razors and hand hoes you sliced and diced up a sick scene of blood and bones you chopped, hacked and sliced their bodies apart unabated and while the people bled, the United Nations debated and they passed some resolutions and deliberated And the blood ran cold CHORUS, Repeat and Fade |
