Children come running to the truth   But you've got to peel the skin to get the fruit   And while one's living high another's grieving   But what's sweet by morning is bitter by the evening   Oh — What's sweet by morning is bitter by the evening      The wicked   The wicked   The wicked man shall fall   The wicked   The wicked   The wicked man shall fall      When the moon chase away the sun   And cause my day to run   I will not fear the darkest night   For I know upon the other side is light   Oh — The other side is light      The wicked   The wicked   The wicked man shall fall   The wicked   The wicked   The wicked man shall fall      Every man is a common man   And every common man has his plan   But while the hungry man seek any food in sight   The greedy man seek only appetite   Oh — The greedy man seek only appetite      The wicked   The wicked   The wicked man shall fall   The wicked   The wicked   The wicked man shall fall      Oh — The wicked man shall fall   Oh — The wicked   The wicked   Oh — The wicked man shall fall   Fall — Fall — Fall — Fall   Wicked man   Wicked man   Oh — Fall
